SHERMAN OAKS, Calif.-FaithMobile will team with Crisp Wireless to deliver faith-based content to wireless users beginning next month.
A subsidiary of Good News Holdings, FaithMobile said it will offer a subscription-based service hawking ringtones, images and video clips from content providers including Promise Keepers, Watchword Bible and New Living Translation. The company also plans to launch a branded portal for wireless teens, FaithXL, this fall.
