(Chicago, IL) December 18, 2006 — Moody Broadcasting Network (MBN) is announcing two new programming initiatives to begin January 2007. Crawford Loritts, senior pastor of Fellowship Bible Church and host of Living a Legacy, will partner with MBN and begin to air his program and variations of it on the network beginning January 1.

"We've been talking with Crawford for a couple years about developing a way to present his solid, powerful, Biblical preaching material on a regular basis to our listeners and we are extremely excited it is now coming to fruition,” said Doug Hastings, Division Manager at MBN. “This, along with his new daily short feature will expose many more people to Crawford and his passion for ministry."

Crawford’s current two-minute short feature is being redesigned and will have a new title, Legacy Moment.  MBN will showcase this new two-minute feature Jan. 1.
