Where are all of the Religious programmes

Before I switched from Sky Q to Sky Glass, I was able to access several Religious channels, but now that I have Sky Glass, the are no longer listed, why is that?

Those channels are not currently distributing their content into Glass/Stream, and the channel owners might never choose to do so: they would need to invest in both technology and personnel which their viewing figures may not justify.  It's also entirely possible that they could choose to concentrate on other online platforms.

If access to those channels is essential to you then unfortunately Glass/Stream is probably not a suitable platform.

It's at Sky discretion if they accept a channel onto their Sky Streem or Sky Glass platforms. Christian broadcasters are very keen to launch on both of these new platforms, but Sky is not accepting them, not as yet. Why Sky is not adding Christian channels, they should, maybe they can explain the reasons

Really? That sounds very unlikely, to me. Perhaps these channels can't meet or justify the cost.

Channels have to meet the technical requirements for doing so, including the sound and image quality which many of the religious channels appear to struggle with.
