Oii a ,reacher înen iast Septei-ber a new anti vibrant voice wvas hea-rt, anti word spread that The Lu-. theran Houir was back on tIc rails. Thie voice belongedt t Dr. Oswald Hoffmann, an unusual combiation of good-natured, relaxeti extrovert, sclolaî r.ad pasoaeman of the Lord, Dir. 1-Ioffma.,nn- is more than six feet taîl an-d 1h.eavy-set but le rmoves swîftiy and -easîly. iHis broad face and, high fore- head are remiiniscent of the late auth-or, Thomnas Wolfe. Also like Wolf e, lie possesses great phy- sical vigor whicb comes over the airwaves witl dramablo cf- fect. Yet le manages 10 avoiti histmlonics, andtihe attracts the 1cducated anvd sophisticated as weil as thé average listener. At 42, Dr. Hoffmiann has a highly successful record as director of public relations for the Mi*ssou-ri Synoti, a job le retainis. Thc son of a Nebraska rmin- ister, Dr. Hoffmann holtis de- grees in thc arts andi divifnity. and wvas ordaincd ln 1939. For seven years he taugît Latin andi Greek, gadually beecoing a key figure lu Missouri Syniod couniscîs, When The Lutheranf ricn situation becamre crucial, Dm, Hoffirnanu got îlfe cail. Since lis radio mninîstry be- gan, Dr. Hoffmnann lias hld spend imuch of bis time away from hin wife Marcia and their four clhiltren, Peter, Paui], John, anti Katherine Ann who was born three wceks before ne took over teprogramn. Dr. Hoffmann is fiercely de- termiined that the Synod shahý get the last -çfnns' of value fromn aý radio prograrr that costs t1,300,000 a year. And "valuie" 'ntiy a ie ovftrI less, it was laýck of ve-ailh and investm-ents, "g-uilt - edg,,edl" o r Othervîse. that almrost starvedi The rutheran Houri in its cradIe. Radiio limre was monstrously ex- pens7ivc, anti in '1931 the Pro- grin went off the air. But the Lutheraits had faith in the pr'ogramn and. by 11935 they had aie enough 1-roney to get it ba-ck ou the air. Almoist immiediately, it, be- camine clear that thcly hadi been riglit in thnkring the depression- ridden public was in the mood for a. hard-hitting riellîgious pro- grai. Four years later it went international, and t oday The Lutheran Hour is heard over 1,258 stations, ln 56l languages and in 65 countries. More t han 20,000,000 listen in each week, and the yeaàrly' letter count stands at well over haîýf a mil- lion.ý Man t0 the listeners are be.. hind the Imon Curtain., Recently, a speaker ventured the hope that listeners would say "Amen" to adearto of f aith in God. During the next few days, hun- dretis of postcards arrived f romn behinti the Curtain. Ail were unsigned, naturaýlly, and bore just onoý word: "Am-en,." Muchi of the program's suc- cess Mi is eariy years is attri- buted to Dr-, Maier, a f1,amrboy-. ant man of God who apparenly neyer really believed he coulti be heard on the air unless hie shouteti at the top of lis lungs. Nor wvas he one toý spare the sinners. lie neyer inlced words. In1, the broadcasting booth hie would strip to his un- dershirt for greater conifort, car- ing not for dignity where the wvor'k of God veas concemniet. At his death in 1950, even unbe.. lievers who had smarted under his wvords had corne to respect lin as a devoted and selfles servant of Christ. Te millionis, Dr. Maier was The Lutheman Hour.
