Herbert W. Armstrong founded the Worldwide Church of God in the late 1930s, as well as Ambassador College in 1946, and was an early pioneer of radio and tele-evangelism, originally taking to the airwaves in the 1930s from Eugene, Oregon.
Mr. Armstrong talks to businessmen; "wolves" enter and devour flock - but the amazing growth of God's Work continues. In the preceding installment we had come to the year 1943. By the spring of that year we were broadcasting on eight radio stations. A year before we had been on only three covering only the Pacific Northwest. But now Christ's own Message was going out, although only once a week, on two stations in Southern California, and on two Midwest super-power 50,000-watt stations, each of which had listeners in every State in the U.S.A. Beside this, during that 12-month period, we had moved up from 500-watt KWJJ in Portland to 10,000-watt KXL, and now during 1943 had added 5,000-watt KVI in Seattle, increasing the number of stations to nine.
