RefNet (Reformation Network)

RefNet, or Reformation Network, is a Christian internet radio station launched as an outreach of Ligonier Ministries in July 2012.[1] It features Bible teaching from a number of popular evangelical Christian teachers, including John Piper[2] and John MacArthur,[3] news from respected Christian organizations,[4] Bible readings, and some selections of sacred and classical music. The theology of much of the teaching featured on RefNet is distinctly Calvinist or Reformed.

RefNet is not a traditional internet stream and instead makes use of "time shift" to enable each listener to hear the day's schedule in their local timezone.[5] RefNet was developed with a suite of apps for listening, iOS, Android, an online listen site, and a standalone "time shift" stream that can be used in third-party apps.

To date, Google Analytics reports RefNet has listeners in 160 countries and territories.
