FEB is a broadcasting ministry that reaches into many places where traditional missionary outreach is impossible because of national, political, religious or geographical barriers.
FEB broadcasts over 600 hours daily to a potential audience of over 3.2 billion people in 160 languages.
FEB has studios, transmission sites and support offices in over 50 countries.
Programs are created to cover a range of purposes including to
| * | encourage the persecuted and marginalized |
| * | teach life and work skills |
| * | provide information on such things as agriculture, health care, business development etc |
| * | provide leadership training |
| * | provide lanaguage and education assistance |
| * | share Christian teaching |
FEB also operates rapid response studios that broadcast emergency information such as health warnings and survival advice in disaster situations.
FEB is a non-denominational, non-political and non-commercial outreach ministry. It relies entirely on donations and bequests for its operating funds.
In the West, literacy rates are very high, but in many parts of the world oral cultures still prevail.
According to statistics, 49% of people living in South East Asia do not read or write.
Radio programs, which are often broadcast in the heart language of the target people group,
allow people to hear the good news of Jesus Christ, even though they would never be able to read
a bible in their own language.
By faith, the mission relies on support from God's people, to carry out its work.
