Around the world

In 1991 broadcasts of the programme, under the
new name “Discovery”, began from Trans World
Radio Africa through their transmitters in
Swaziland, covering all of southern Africa. These
transmissions continued until March 2018 with the
addition of coverage by satellite from 2003 and
relays by local FM stations in South Africa,
Tanzania and Malawi.
From 2008 to 2017 broadcasts went out to Ghana,
Nigeria and West Africa from TWR Benin.
Between 1992 and 2007 “Discovery” was broadcast
to India from FEBA, Seychelles; between 1995 and
1998 from The Voice of Hope in south Lebanon to
the Middle East and for a time in 1996 from a
transmitter in Tbilisi, Georgia, to Asia.

Christian Light Radio, Malta carried the programme
between 2001 and 2008 and Bible Voice stations in
Kenya (2007 -2010)

In addition to the overseas broadcasts, “Discovery”
was heard in the UK, Ireland and Europe over United
Christian Broadcasters (1993—2000) and over Trans
World Radio UK on Sky satellite and the Internet
(2003-2017)

Local broadcasts will still be heard from time to time
on Flame Christian & Community Radio Wirral.

Since the early days of GBS, literature for
following-up the programme was an
important part of the ministry. From the
1990’s four booklets were published each
year containing the studies broadcast on
the programme.
These booklets were sent to listeners without
charge and several thousands have gone
out to Africa, India, Malta, the Middle East
and the UK.
