KFUO at 100: Historic Broadcasts | Rev. Carl Kretzschmar & Rev. Dr. John W. Behnken

We celebrate 100 years of God’s blessings on KFUO with special historic broadcasts.

First, the Rev. Carl R Kretzschmar reads the 1924 dedication address of KFUO from his father the Rev. Richard Kretzschmar.

The second broadcast comes from April 23, 1939, the 100th anniversary of the Saxon landing in St. Louis. The then president of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod, the Rev. Dr. John W. Behnken presents a Lutheran Hour sermon for the occasion.

As you grab your morning coffee (and pastry, let’s be honest), join hosts Andy Bates and Sarah Gulseth as they bring you stories of the intersection of Lutheran life and a secular world. Catch real-life stories of mercy work of the LCMS and partners, updates from missionaries across the ocean, and practical talk about how to live boldly Lutheran.
