God's Learning Channel (GLC) is an American religious television network based in Odessa, Texas, which teaches a biblical point of view of Messianic Judaism. The network was founded in 1982 by Al and Tommie Cooper, who had the vision to share the teachings of Jesus Christ with Southeastern New Mexico. The network later grew to five television transmitters located in New Mexico and West Texas. While the focus of programming has been to teach believers their ties to the Bible and the spiritual world, it has expanded to cover a wide range of themes related to the Land of Israel and the Jewish people, presenting Jesus, in Hebrew pronounced Yeshua, as the Jewish Messiah.

On January 30, 1985, the Federal Communications Commission granted a construction permit for a new television station on channel 27 in Roswell, New Mexico, to Prime Time Christian Broadcasting. PTCB, at the time carrying programming from the Trinity Broadcasting Network, had already been broadcasting over the local cable system on channel 12.[1] Channel 27 began broadcasting September 15, 1986,[2] and over the years that followed, Prime Time built additional translators and full-service stations, the first of which was constructed at Artesia.[3] Additionally, new studios were built in Roswell in 1987.[4]
After making its first full-power station purchase, of KMLM in Odessa, Texas, in 1991, planning began to move the Prime Time headquarters there.[5]
