NRB - Who We Are  >  Statement of Faith and Code of Ethics


  1. We believe the Bible to be inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
  2. We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
  3. We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory.
  4. We believe that for the salvation of lost and sinful man, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
  5. We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a godly life.
  6. We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of damnation.
  7. We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.


Recognizing the vital and increasingly important role played by radio, television, Internet and other emerging technologies of mass communication, and the desire of the National Religious Broadcasters "to foster and encourage excellence in religious broadcasting by establishing and maintaining high standards with respect to content, method of presentation, speakers' qualifications and ethical practices...," the NRB also recognizes that the general public looks to us to bring conformity to ethical behavior into our broadcasting, programming, business, management, financial, and relational responsibilities. Recognizing the Bible as the standard by which we must evaluate all beliefs, instruction, policies and practice, and subject to Article I of the Bylaws, the NRB has adopted and each of its members has subscribed to the following Code of Ethics:

a)  I will conduct my personal life corporate ministry, and business affairs in a way that will not bring shame or reproach to the name of the Lord or the NRB or its members.  Rather, I will speak to bring glory and pleasure to our Lord and encourage others to do likewise. [1 Peter 1:14-16, 2:12, 4:11]

b)  I will speak the truth in love. [Ephesians 4:1-16]

c) I will recognize and respect what the Lord is doing through other individuals and organizations while refraining from unnecessary criticism of them.  [1 Peter 3:8,9]

d)  I will not use media to knowingly speak falsely against anyone. [Exodus 20:16]

e)  When I believe a fellow member has sinned against me or the Lord, or has violated this Code of Ethics, I will follow the principles and procedures set forth in God's word and in Article I of the Bylaws. [Matthew 18:15-17]

f)  I will honor my obligations to my vendors, neighbors, community and government. [Romans 3:7-8]

g)  In matters of dispute with other Christians, I will attempt to submit my grievances to Christian arbitration for resolution rather than to the courts of the land (1 Corinthians 6:1-8).  Nothing herein shall be construed so as to prohibit a member from expressing his genuine concern to another brother in the spirit of love and in accordance with Matthew 18:15-17.
