- Description
-
Dr. John Matthews sits for a portrait photograph. He wears a suit jacket and tie. Matthews, a minister from the First Radio Church of the World, returned from a world tour which included a sit-down interview with Benito Mussolini, prime minister of Italy. Mussolini evidently spoke primarily about his interest in the movie industry during the interview. Matthews sermonized from the radio station, KNX, in Los Angeles. The First Radio Church of the World may be possibly linked to the Radio Church of God, which was founded during the 1930s. This is unconfirmed however. The Radio Church of God eventually became the Worldwide Church of God, which is today known as Grace Communion International.
