Gaither Gospel Hour Takes Over Huckabee Time Slot on TBN

Gaither Music Group and TBN have announced that Gaither Gospel Hour, the beloved gospel music series hosted by Bill and Gloria Gaither, will take over the coveted Saturday evening time slot previously held by Huckabee. The programming shift comes following former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee's departure to serve as the U.S. ambassador to Israel. The debut episode of Gaither Gospel Hour, airing Saturday, February 1 at 8:00 PM EST (7:00 PM CST), will feature the Sweet Hymns of Fellowship special, a powerful celebration of faith and community that unites gospel legends and contemporary artists in an extraordinary musical event.
For decades, Bill and Gloria Gaither have been at the forefront of gospel music, bringing together the most celebrated voices of the genre for unforgettable performances. Now, with Gaither Gospel Hour joining TBN's lineup, viewers can experience the heartwarming fellowship and timeless hymns that have made the Gaithers household names in faith-filled entertainment.
The debut episode will spotlight Sweet Hymns of Fellowship, a musical event recorded just outside Franklin, Tennessee. Featuring gospel music legends like Sandi Patty, The Oak Ridge Boys, Jason Crabb, and the Gaither Vocal Band, alongside contemporary artists such as Selah and Joseph Habedank, the special brings together 200 voices in a moving tribute to the enduring power of hymns. Songs like "Love Lifted Me," "I Surrender All," and "Sweet Hour of Prayer" will stir the soul and inspire viewers to join in praise.
"Bringing Gaither Gospel Hour to TBN is an exciting new chapter," said Bill Gaither. "We're thrilled to continue sharing the music and message that have touched so many lives over the years. The Sweet Hymns special is the perfect way to launch this journey, as it reflects everything, we cherish about gospel music-its rich history, its timeless melodies, and its ability to bring people together in faith."
Over the course of their legendary careers, Bill and Gloria Gaither have penned more than 700 songs, earned eight Grammy Awards, over 40 GMA DOVE Awards, and received the prestigious Jackie Patillo Leadership Award at the 2024 GMA DOVE Awards. Their Homecoming series of videos and concerts has become a cornerstone of gospel music, celebrating the legacy and future of the genre.
The Sweet Hymns of Fellowship album, companion DVD, and digital release are available now. Fans can stream or purchase the music, bringing the spirit of this special gathering into their homes ahead of the television premiere.
