Quotes

...of Christ's return, which is contrary to what the Bible says that you can do -- that only God knows the time (Matthew 24:36)," the author says. "The radio ministry has really done much to promote [Camping's] religious philosophy, and without that, it's going to definitely hurt."
"We humbly recognize that God may not tell His people the date when Christ will return, any more than He tells anyone the date they will die physically" the statement added
...the new group that's coming in is very committed to local broadcasting and they are about doing things that build the community up," he said. "That's how we've tried to run our business over the last several years so it'll be a good thing for these radio stations; it'll be a good thing for Rockford."
In Family Radio's heyday, "its stations had no commercials, providing 24-hour, seven-days-a-week Christian programming in 30 languages -- including hymns, Bible teachings and gospel talk shows -- with Camping's "Open Forum" program airing every weeknight for 90 minutes" the newspaper noted
