This month, TWR station KTWR/Guam is commemorating 40 years of broadcasting the gospel message to much of Asia. But only a month earlier, the leader of reclusive North Korea threatened to fire missiles at the U.S. territory because of disputes with the American government.

Despite threats, to the U.S. territory, KTWR continues to reach out to North Korea, China and other vast stretches of the region. Although radio is one of the older electronic media, it remains highly relevant in many parts of the world.
