Why Radio Still Matters in the Digital Age

In today’s high-tech world, you might wonder why FEBC continues to broadcast over traditional radio. While digital platforms are expanding, radio remains one of the most powerful and strategic tools for proclaiming the gospel—especially to those beyond the reach of modern technology. 

Chinese Ministries: The Future

It’s been nearly eight decades since John Broger landed in Shanghai, with the bold vision to broadcast the Gospel of Jesus Christ to a total population of about 450 million people. Not only has China’s population grown about three-fold; it has also experienced huge demographic shifts due to unparalleled economic, social and technological changes.

Waves of Grace: The Philippines as a Lifeline for China—and What It Means Today

In 1948, something extraordinary was happening in Asia. As the bamboo curtain fell, China’s doors slammed shut to foreign missionaries. Churches were closed, pastors imprisoned, and the future of the Gospel seemed uncertain under the weight of a rising Communist regime. But even as the world watched in uncertainty, God was already at work, shifting the course of missions and raising up an unlikely new outpost for the Gospel.

FEBC’s Legacy in Shanghai

Right after the Second World War, God gave three American men (Robert Bowman, John Broger, and William Roberts) the vision to bring the gospel to Asia through radio. In December of 1945, Far East Broadcasting Company (FEBC International) was incorporated, and three months later John Broger set off for Shanghai, China, with very little money but a grand vision. China was still recovering from the devastation of war, and it was clear to Broger that only the gospel of Jesus Christ could bring true peace. He was warmly welcomed by James H Taylor II, who was running the ministry his grandfather had started, China Inland Mission.
