Almost no recordings remain of the thousands of hours that were broadcast from the Chicago Gospel Tabernacle. Featured here are three of the few remaining moments that have been preserved.

Program broadcast on June 3, 1930. Paul Rader is the speaker in a presentation that combines the creation of the world, the life of Christ, and Christian witness in the modern world. Notice how the Tabernacle was using speech, sound and music to prodcue a program especially designed to use the strengths of radio, rather than just broadcasting a sermon. About 13 minutes.

Another clip from June 3, 1930. After the Men of Note singing a verse of Marching to Zion, Rader invites the audience to join in singing the hymn. About 2-1/2 minutes.

The short undated sermon "The Stone Age." This was on one side of a phonograph record that the Tabernacle gave away as a gift to anyone in the radio audience who wrote in requesting it. About 4 minutes.
