It Is Written TV is a ministry of It Is Written, a Christian organization founded in 1956 by George Vandeman with the goal of sharing insights from God’s Word on television. 

That mission has expanded over the years to include satellite and digital television, websites and mobile apps, global evangelistic campaigns, and faith-building resources. The ministry continues to grow today under the leadership of current president John Bradshaw.

The theme of It Is Written can be found in Matthew 4:4: “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'”

The 33

In 2010, a collapse at a mine in northern Chile left 33 Chilean miners trapped 2,300 feet below ground. The story of their incredible rescue is a story of triumph over tragedy, faith against the odds, and the blessing and grace of a loving God.

Before their eventual rescue after 69 days, Camp Hope was established, witnessing to faith in God during extreme adversity, reminding us of the "Camp Hope" God has established for all of His children.
