What airs on MBSGG, and what does not.
If you are an artist deciding whether to put your music on this network, or a viewer deciding whether to trust it, this is the page you need. It is specific on purpose, and we will be held to it.
One standard. Everything. No exceptions.
MBSGG is a family-friendly network. That is not a description of most of our programming — it is the rule for all of it.
There is no late-night slot with different rules. There is no adult content anywhere on this network at any hour.
Your work will only ever air alongside content that meets the standard on this page. That sentence is the whole reason this page exists.
Written down and public
Not a private policy. You can read it, print it and hold us to it.
Referenced in our Terms
This is contractual, not aspirational.
Reviewed by a person
Every submission is seen by a named human before it airs.
Members are notified of changes
If we change this materially, you hear about it first.

The lines we do not cross.
Plainly stated, so nobody has to guess.
Profanity or explicit language
Including bleeped or masked profanity, and lyrics written to imply it.
Sexual content or suggestive material
In lyrics, imagery, dress or performance.
Glorification of violence, drugs or crime
Depicting hardship honestly is not the same as celebrating it. We can tell the difference and so can you.
Content demeaning any person or group
By race, sex, nationality, disability or any other characteristic.
Partisan political campaigning
MBSGG does not endorse candidates or parties, and does not carry campaign content. Teaching on issues of conscience is not the same thing.
Financial exploitation
No prosperity-for-payment appeals, no guaranteed-return claims, no pressure fundraising aimed at vulnerable viewers.
Attacks on other people by name
You may say what you believe. You may not use our air to tear down another artist, church or group by name.
Anything unlawful or infringing
Including material you do not hold the rights to broadcast.
A person reviews it
Every submission is watched or listened to by a member of MBSGG staff. No automated approval.
Borderline goes up, not through
If a reviewer is unsure, it escalates. The default is to ask, not to assume.
We tell you why
If we decline something, you get a reason. Not a form letter.
You can appeal
Write to us. A different person will look at it.
By people, and we will explain ourselves.
We are not going to pretend this is a science. Judgement is involved, and reasonable people sometimes disagree about where a line sits.
What we can promise is that a human being makes the call, that we apply the same standard to a well-known artist and a brand-new one, and that we will tell you our reasoning if you ask.
We would rather decline something and explain why than air it and lose the trust of an audience that put its evening in our hands.
Faith-based content is welcome. We do not referee between traditions.
MBSGG carries faith-based programming from a range of traditions alongside music and community programming. We do not require agreement with any particular statement of faith, and we do not adjudicate doctrinal differences.
What we ask is conduct, not doctrine: say what you believe, and do not use our air to attack anyone by name.
Tell us, and we will answer you.
If you see or hear something on MBSGG that you believe breaches this standard, write to info@mbsgg.com and tell us what it was and when it aired.
We review every concern a member raises. We respond. And we tell you what we decided and why — including when we decide the content was within standard after all.
What artists ask about this page
Does my music have to be gospel or Christian?
No. Jazz, blues, soul, R&B, instrumental and other genres air on MBSGG, as long as the work meets the family-friendly standard on this page. There is no adult content anywhere on the network.
Who decides what airs?
A named human being at MBSGG reviews every submission. There is no algorithm making this decision and no automated approval. If something is borderline, it is escalated rather than waved through.
Can I submit music made with AI tools?
Yes. MBSGG accepts AI-assisted and AI-native work. Tell us how AI was used so the right agreements and on-air disclosures can be prepared.
What if I see something on MBSGG I object to?
Tell us. Write to info@mbsgg.com describing what you saw and when. We review every concern a member raises, we respond, and we tell you what we decided and why.
Can I see this in writing before I submit?
This page is the writing. It is public, it is dated, and it is referenced in our Terms of Service. If we change it materially, members are notified.
This standard was last updated on October 18, 2026. It is referenced in the MBSGG Terms of Service. Material changes are notified to members.
