Daystar is a non-profit Christian network founded by Marcus and Joni Lamb, and based near Dallas. While they air the same conservative Pentecostal programming as the rival Creator/{{TBN}}, they are a lot more youth-oriented and not quite as scandal-ridden as the other network. Despite being a relative newcomer as far as TV ministries go (Daystar was launched in TheNineties, much later than TBN and ''The700Club''), they are currently the second largest Christian network on the air.

* {{Israel}}: Daystar is the first Christian television network to be given a broadcasting license in that country. They weren't necessarily welcomed by Israeli viewers, however, since Daystar airs shows targeted at Messianic Jews, and regular Jews generally see Messianic Judaism as a ploy to trick Jews into becoming Christians.
