NEW YORK, May 6, 2019 /Christian Newswire/ -- The Eric Metaxas Radio Show is coming to TBN, America's most-watched faith-and-family television network. TBN announced that the popular daily radio program -- known as the "Show About Everything"-- is moving its broadcast operations to TBN's studios in New York City, and will begin a new weekend television edition of the show on TBN beginning May 17th.

"Matt Crouch and TBN bring an energy, enthusiasm, and excellence to all they do that is infectious and inspiring and fun. I have a feeling that my partnership with them really was made in heaven," said Metaxas.
 
Each weekly installment of The Eric Metaxas Radio Show on TBN will feature an entertaining and thought-provoking "best-of" roundup of guests from Eric's radio show for the past week -- including such notables as actors Gary Sinise and Steven Baldwin, "Duck Commander" Phil Robertson, inspirational speaker Victoria Osteen, bestselling author and pastor Erwin McManus, real estate entrepreneurs and cultural activists Jason and David Benham, Second Lady of the United States Karen Pence, popular pastor and speaker Jentzen Franklin, and others.
