  2. The one-hour weekly program will be scheduled at a mutually agreed-upon time.

  • The host's program graphic will be featured at www.unity.fm one hour before and for the hour of the program's broadcast.
  • A professionally produced program promo will air throughout the live programming schedule and will include your program name, topic, day and time.

What equipment will I need?

It is possible to host a program on Unity Online Radio from anywhere in the world. All you need is a computer and an Internet connection. We require our hosts to establish a Skype account and purchase a headset with a USB connection for the computer. Each week, you will work with our engineer to produce a live, interactive program, complete with call-in capabilities and live online interactions.

How is funding provided?

Funding for Unity Online Radio is provided by the tithes and love offerings of our listeners and the financial support of the hosts who share their messages.

If you are the leader of a Unity ministry, we invite you to prayerfully talk with your board to determine the level to which you would like to support the Unity Online Radio network. Your monthly love offering commitment will constitute the underwriting for your program and the funding ministry will be acknowledged during each episode and at the program page.

If you are not a Unity minister or licensed Unity teacher, we have established a reasonable pricing structure to help Unity off-set the costs associated with the production and marketing of your program. Please contact us here to learn more.

What type of programming do you offer?

Programs are accepted and scheduled based on the following:

  1. Area of focus. Programs that serve a specific niche for spiritual seekers and Unity students. For example, topics such as Spiritual Parenting, Interpreting the Bible, Unity for Singles, etc., would be given preference over a more generic format.
  2. Quality of Programming. Programs that complement the teachings of Unity and support the Unity Online Radio outreach ministry. Hosts who will help us spread the word about living an abundant, blessed, positive and practical life to our global audience will be given preference.
