   “Hour of Power” will broadcast its 2,000th consecutive weekly program at 7 a.m. Sunday (June 1) on Lifetime.

   The broadcast will include interviews with individuals whose lives have been positively impacted by the show, as well as the world-premiere performance of “Gloria,” which was composed for the event by Hollywood film scorer Mark McKenzie.  

   “For 2,000 episodes, God has used the ‘Hour of Power’ to powerfully motivate and encourage persons across the world – from China to Pakistan, from Australia to South Africa,” said the Rev. Robert A. Schuller, senior pastor of the renowned Crystal Cathedral, whose Sunday services have aired as the “Hour of Power” since 1970. 

   “When we started the ‘Hour of Power,’ with Billy Graham as my guide and mentor, we didn’t know how long it would run,” said Dr. Robert H. Schuller, founding pastor. “But we were led by God to try it. And we kept going, week after week, thanks to God and the generous support of millions of persons who have made it possible.” 

   Today, 20 million people a week watch the “Hour of Power,” now the fourth longest-running weekly television program in history.  Airing in the U.S. on Lifetime, the Trinity Broadcasting Network, and on more than 100 local broadcast affiliates, the “Hour of Power” also reaches all seven of the world’s continents, via the Armed Forces Network and the satellite and cable systems in 50 countries.
