Daystar Wins Prestigious Lone Star EMMY Award

DALLAS - Nov. 23, 2015 - PRLog -- Daystar Television Network just won a prestigious Lone Star EMMY award in the ‘cultural documentary’ category for the documentary, Israel and the Golan: The Heights of Hope.

Now in its 13^th year, the Lone Star EMMY awards are a part of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, and represent the most experienced and talented television professionals throughout all 19 of the TV markets in the state of Texas. Members come from a variety of TV-related fields, including production and post production, public relations, news and non-news broadcasting, education and advertising.

Israel and the Golan: The Heights of Hope is a one-of-a-kind special documentary that takes an in-depth look at the people, life and history of one of Israel’s most contested regions – the Golan Heights. Steeped in history, yet remaining at the center of international debate today, the Golan Heights plays a unique role in Israel’s past, present and future – something that is examined throughout the documentary.

Walking through its tumultuous history, Israel and the Golan also examines the region’s role in the security of the nation, and explores its economic impact as well as the importance of its natural resources.  But what truly sets this documentary apart is its captivating revelation of the unfailing hope of its people.  Shot on-location, Israel and the Golan takes a “from the inside looking out” approach to life along Israel’s northern border.

“My heart is humbled once again as our amazing production staff has added another EMMY to our collection,” says Marcus Lamb, Founder and CEO of Daystar Television Network. “I am so proud of the first class work of our team and for all that God has blessed us with. Our prayer is that this documentary on Israel will continue to be an eye-opener for the people that view it and in turn, a blessing to Israel. Our goal is not just to win an Emmy but to win and educate souls for the Kingdom of God. The award goes to God; He allows us to keep the trophy.”
