'LivePrayer' Explodes Nationally on Late Night TV July 3rd on the 'i Network'
Host of Florida-based show expects one million viewers immediately

JACKSONVILLE, Florida, June 9 /
Christian Newswire/ -- The press has dubbed him “the Dr. Phil of Prayer” and “the next big thing in religious media.” He currently pulls in a quarter million viewers per night on major secular network affiliates throughout Florida, and his show is ranked number one and two in its time slot in each market. And on July 3rd he’ll debut his late-night television talk show, “LivePrayer with Bill Keller,” on the i television network (formerly the PAX network). The show will air nightly Monday through Friday from Midnight to 1:00 a.m. ET/PT (11 p.m. to Midnight CT/MT).

“We’ve done our homework, and this program is primed to attract a massive national audience,” said Keller, who launched “LivePrayer” in 2003 as an outgrowth of his online outreach LivePrayer.com. The nightly program features Keller, a businessman and ex-con turned preacher, offering prayer and advice to callers and spiritual exhortation to viewers.

“We’re not your typical Christian television program,” he explained. “Our only guests are the viewers who call in. And we don’t beg for money or sell anything. ‘LivePrayer’ isn’t about hustling people – it’s about helping them in their time of need. We want to be where the lonely, the rejected, and the marginalized congregate. By and large they are not heading to the church. But our research shows you’ll find them channel surfing on TV late at night.”
