Our Story

KWHB TV-47 is part of the vision that the late Dr. Lester Sumrall received from God: to own and operate television and radio stations so that Christian voices could not be silenced. It was revealed to him that there would come a time when Christian programmers would not be able to purchase airtime. Today, many stations still refuse to sell time, even on Sunday, to religious broadcasters. Dr. Sumrall knew electronic media to be a powerful tool for evangelism, and it was his vision that God's Word be available for all to hear.

Every day, thousands of viewers in Tulsa and Northeast Oklahoma tune to KWHB TV-47 for the best family, ministry, and sports programming on the air anywhere.

LeSEA Broadcasting purchased KWHB TV-47 in 1986. Since that time KWHB TV-47 is the only full-time Christian family television station in Tulsa. LeSEA Broadcasting is dedicated to serving the Christian community with great ministry and entertaining programs for the whole family to enjoy.

Today KWHB TV-47 is carried on 82 cable stations throughout Oklahoma, Kansas, and Arkansas, reaching over 549 thousand households. No other station in Green Country can reach as many people.
