Mr. Armstrong founded the Worldwide church in 1933 as the Radio Church of God, reflecting the Church’s far-flung broadcast reach at the time. After moving headquarters to Pasadena, Calif., the Church’s name was changed, still reflecting the reach of its biblical message and its membership, which continued to grow throughout the last half of the 20th Century.
In 1947, Mr. Armstrong founded Ambassador College, a liberal arts institution, which grew to three campuses in the United States and England, that helped the Church proclaim its message of hope and bolstered Church members.
Throughout the latter part of his life, Mr. Armstrong received invitations to meet with hundreds of world leaders, including literally dozens of presidents, prime ministers and kings, as well as hundreds of other leaders of government, the judiciary, education, science, business and industry.
By the time Herbert Armstrong died in 1986, the gospel message was reaching millions of people around the world. The World Tomorrow program, which was on the air for over 50 years, broadcasted on more than 400 television stations around the world, and the Plain Truth magazine circulation peaked at 8 million. Mr. Armstrong also left behind Youth Opportunities United, an extensive youth program, thousands of devoted Church members and his greatest work, Mystery of the Ages.
