- Statement on the Passing of Dr. Robert H. Schuller, 1926 - 2015
Huntington Beach, CA - April 2, 2015. The Rev. Dr. Robert H. Schuller, founding pastor of the Crystal Cathedral and minister to millions over four decades through his acclaimed weekly Hour of Power television broadcasts, died Thursday morning, April 2, with his loving family by his side. Dr. Schuller had been diagnosed with esophageal cancer in August 2013. At the time of his death, he was 88 years old.
What follows are words from Robert Vernon "Bobby" Schuller, grandson of Robert H. Schuller, on his special relationship with his grandfather.
I always had a special relationship with my grandfather. He was so warm with all of his grandchildren; we all felt special. I remember he used to love calling me "Robert Schuller the Third" like it was special to him that I carried his name. That made it special for me, too. My dad is also Robert Schuller and I remember the three of us at holidays or on fishing trips talking about how to build a thriving ministry, how to reach people where they are, or debating the best way to write a great sermon.
When my dad was leading the ministry, in 2006, I came to join him to bring younger adults to an aging church. During that time, my grandfather began mentoring me. I would go to the 12th floor of the Tower of Hope every week. There we were, looking at the top of the Crystal Cathedral, Angel Stadium, and Disneyland. You could see the whole world from up there. He would just pour into me for hours. We would debate (I often disagreed with him), dream, and even think through practical issues of theology. I always left feeling encouraged, like I was on cloud nine. Several times he would say, "Bobby, Oral Roberts called me a prophet. I prophesize that someday you will take over after your father!" Though the idea of picking his grandson to carry on would be no surprise to most people, I doubted the idea, mostly because I had no desire to be enmeshed in a family run ministry.
After setting out on my own, the Crystal Cathedral Congregation, now Shepherd's Grove, voted unanimously to have me return and lead the church into its next chapter. I have the incredible honor of carrying on my grandfather's legacy by teaching people that they are not what they do, not what they have, and not what people say about them. They are the beloved of God. This message is going to millions around the world as we carry on the work my grandparents and parents began exactly sixty years ago. The Hour of Power team is dedicated to keeping Dr. Schuller's legacy alive by providing our messages, old and new, to those who need to hear them most.

God bless you Rev. Schuller. When my mother became housebound, this was my late mother's television church. It brought her a lot of joy. Dr. Schuller was 50 years ahead of his time! We need drive in churches now!
In the 70s, my first apartment, I found this on my first TV, a Sunday morning in the 70's I found hope in Jesus , through this service.
For 1970, the production value of this broadcast is outstanding.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm sure it was video tape. Amazing it has lasted this long. I wonder what they used to make those end credits.
Indeed! I was astonished with this clear video though recoreded in 1970's.
except I would have seen it on Black & White TV : )
@@mtlicq, I'm sure it was excellent in black & white as well.
@@EnergeticWavesthey used to have the words printed on cards and a camera would take video of the cards, then it would transfer into digital words on the screen.
I attended and was a member of this church under Dr. Schuller in the 70's and 80's. Wonderful messages, and music. I knew these ministers, they were wonderful people. I was a New Hope Counselor for New Hope. Praise God for these wonderful experiences. Connie J. Bruns
Connie, am sure you'll be getting extra blessings in heaven for your volunteering to work as a counselor - although I imagine it can be frustrating and heart wrenching at times. God bless you for your work doing that.
Crystals Cathedral Is Makeover Time !
Because of church buildings being closed due to COVID-19 my Mum and & found ourselves watching vintage church services. I'm surprised the current Hour of Power doesn't sell the book: Move ahead with possiblity thinking. Would be perhaps good to get it back in print...
Doctors and specialists can help cure physical ailments, but Dr. Schuller had a special gift to reach deep into your soul and give you salvation and hope. He was there when I was close to my ropes end and I will always love him for that. For the hope he restored in me, for the faith in Christ that I had lost and found again. Rest in peace Dr. Robert Schuller, then rise in glory.
Beautiful Pipe organ music!
Possibility Thinking. Rev. Schuller's message is as appropriate today as it was in 1970. I spent many hours in the 80s looking for the power. He told me where to find it. He will be remembered for being a great encourager.
A wonderful blessing to have grandparents, parents to pass the faith to younger generation. I thank God for my dad he was a Presbyterian. This is an awesome recording it's ageless. The singing the message is still fresh.
This first ever episode of the Hour of Power was produced on 18 January 1970 and first broadcast on KTLA in Los Angeles on 1 February 1970.
Tapioca Charlie I wonder if someone has more videos from the early beginnings of dr.Schullers televised broadcasting services.
The Garden Grove Community Church/Crystal Cathedral were a massive part of my childhood and young adulthood. I am forever grateful to have been living a few miles from this church.
His voice deepened with age. I use to watch him every Sunday Growing up. I was mesmerized at his voice and listened to every word he said. I loved his sermons. I miss them. Thank you for this.
The Hour of Power was my mother in law's favorite show and I was glad we could enjoy it together. Dr. Schuller will be missed.
The Garden Grove Church has been a part of my life. I thank Rev. Schuller for all the sermons and prayers. Thank you. ❤😅
Have you subscribed to the new Hour of Power Classics page. It has a lot of the original services. Here is the link. www.youtube.com/@HourofPowerClassics
I remember the Sundays at home as a child, before I entered my own personal walk with the savior, listening to Dr. Schuller. He never used his TV pulpit to demean any group, person, or denomination. It was heartbreaking reading the difficulty of his last years, and the ridicule heaped upon both he and his family. My prayers go out to the Schuller family. May God bless you, keep you and comfort you in the days ahead. Thank you for sharing him with the world.
Wonderful message RIP just got the news that Dr Schuller passed on over a week ago praying for the Family in trying times. Watched hour of power today and he preached in remembrance was awesome never was interested in Sr Schuller sermons now YES!!!
The faces in the congregation are iconic of the time. The clothing, and their attention is riveted.
So miss Dr. Schuller! He was a true man of God.
I can see why the fist wasn't the last, why he continued and grew his ministry successfully...Great presenter, great message, honest and facing reality to the core, and respectful to women as well as men, even more respectful to truth, denouncing negativity and planting positivity, and a great orator indeed! We miss Robert Shuller Sr.
Robert Schuller was the one who motivated me enough to become a minister. He was not perfect, but touched the lives of millions and changed the world for the better. May Bobby, Robert A. and others in the family receive the peace of Christ at this time were Robert H. has moved from this physical realm into the spiritual. I'm sure he was welcomed with very wide and open arms.
This is great. I remember listening to Robert Schuller back in the late 70s and early 80s. One of the few televangelists I respected. I also think this is great to see him preaching from his original church, Garden Grove Community Drive-In Church. I have seen pictures of this indoor/outdoor church, but I never thought I would see video of it while being used for a service. Yes, he's not preaching to a parking lot. People could walk into the church or park outside and hear the sermon. Church was designed by Richard Neutra.
This true message still resonates with me decades later. RIP Dr Schuller 👍👏💖🌅🤩🌅.
Thank you! Rev. Schuller made a hugh difference in my life.He changed my life. I started watching the Hour of Power in 1978 and am so blessed. Continue his work Bobby and blessings to you always. I also wish to give thanks and gratitude to Ed Arnold who has been so faithful all these years. What a faithful servant! Happy Easter !!
RIP Dr. Robert H. Schuller. U will be missed. I have been watching the Hour of Power for so many years since he started this sermon on TV. Thank God Bobby Schuller will continue his work and mission. More power to Bobby Schuller for the dedication started by his grandpa. I will be a follower of this mission or program forever.
Thank You God for a new beautiful day!!!
Amen brother 🙏🏻🌄
God bless Robert Schuller, take care Bobby
Dr. Schuller set a wonderful example for us all of how we should be living and sharing our lives for the glory of Jesus. Thank you Dr. Schuller.
I came to Christ through Robert Schuller He is one with Christ
hes the one who showed me as well
Amen!..RIP Rev, Schuller..
Beautiful sermon. Possibility thinking!!!!
I actuallly taped most of Rober H Schuller thru the years so I can view them from time to time. So inspirational. Thanks for the positive attitude message he instilled with us over the years. It made me a tough and positive person till today. I survived tough times in my life thru the years becuz of this program.
+Girazhe You are not alone. I was in the darkest days of my life when I stumbled upon the Hour of Power and it felt as if Robert was speaking directly to Me. The second Sunday it was the same. The third week I had my teenage Stepson watch the program with me and once again God spoke to Me through Robert. 20 years later My Son is an assistant pastor in a small Bible based Church and My Faith in the Lord is fully restored. Peace to You always.
Bobby Schuller Thank you Bobby, Your Grandad is proud of You I am sure. I think that You understand His Mission more than anyone else in Your Family. God Bless You.
+Girazhe do you have some of the 70's services of Dr. Schuller you would like to share. I'm trying to find more of the early services at the Arboretum. Hope you can help😅
Definitely a pioneer. Used to watch him every Sunday morning with my Granddad while getting ready for church.
Our family watched Hour of Power every Sunday morning in lieu of attending a local church. Dr. Schuller's messages provided hope and encouragement to see you through the week.
Then you’re going to hell
Wow!!! A towering influence. Many thanks for uploading.
Thank you for this post Bobby. No single person had more of an impact on my life. Carry the torch young man. God bless you and your family. Thank you for doing so much for so many.
I was in a Mental hospital sent Him and family a Christmas card due to the teachings that I could look Dow and see the debris or look up and see the st and see the limitless things or possble. He returned it with one if his of hope. Today I am Seventy. The truth is you are in the light of God that is timeless limitless and Because of Him I am free. Free no matter where I am. My mind has given me freedom for I at six years of age became a true believer in God ad I have and am becoming yo u sweat and Him. For God is in everything the senses can know. Thank you for the ability to hear again one of my teachers on my journey of life.
What a great religious program this was. Schuller was so uplifting and such a great speaker for what was largely a secular religious show built mostly on psychology rather than so much the Bible. But, it might well have led many to faith or at least led many to feel that they were part of a TV congregation.
Thank You for The WONDERFUL Memories. PEACE &💚💙
Just what need today!
I love the music in this program. So here are the hymns & music time-stamped.
1:16 - Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts
2:08 - We Praise Thee, O God, Our Redeemer Creator
4:14 - Anthem (song unsure)
8:45 - Bells chiming
11:35 - Fairest Lord Jesus
13:22 - Instrumental organ (song unsure)
17:32 - Spirit of God, Descent upon my Heart
19:55 - Doxology
21:17 - Our Fathers' God to Thee
54:27 - Gloria
55:07 - Postlude
*Unsure of some of the music's titles. If you know what they are let me know!
For the instrumental part it is a selection from Bach's Orgelbuchlein. And Postlude I think it is a movement from Mendelssohn's Second Organ Sonata.
So sorry to hear about your grandpa's passing! He had a relatively long life. May he RIP! Will you continue to upload some videos of your grandfather, on "Hour of Power," please?!
Times were more simple then, and so were the cars! Oh... the memories!
I am extremely extremely moved and inspired by this episode especially by how beautiful the architecture, how decent the congregation dressed and the presentation overall. I really hope all these goodness will come back someday, for good.
Me too, just like you sayd it. Feeling melancolic while seeing this video.

He was a great teacher and the HoP saved my life. I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and say soo many thanks to God, that I met HoP
Thank you for posting. This early episode is wonderful to watch. I hope you will continue to add new episodes. I watched him weekly for many years but was too young to see these original broadcasts when they first aired. I miss him dearly.
Spirit of God Descend Upon My Heart!!!
I wonder who was singing that beautiful song just before the sermon began.
I used to watch this with my great grandmother :) She would sing along with the choir and pipe organ!
Such a wonderful and powerful message. It was such a joy and pleasure to hear Dr. Schuller preach after so many years. This may have been taped many years ago but the message, power and truth still holds today. I recall reading somewhere recently that the Natives in an Ontario jail have no stimulation there for them. I am going to see if I can contact that jail and have this video shared with them. God bless you Dr. Schuller! So many people need to hear this. Did you see the people in his audience, of all ages, glued to what he was saying, what an amazing minister. I wish the same power and growth for your church and audience Bobby. Nothing is impossible, if you believe and have faith!
I love the way he preaches. Very positive, and powerful. His grandson preaches now, but his style is different.
So many losses your family has sustained. Praying your family reunites and carries through on preaching the Gospel. To God be the Glory!
Came as a shock that Dr Schuller passed away I suppose with good symbolism practically on Good Friday 2015! He has been an inspiration to me and I thank God for using Dr Schuller to touch so many lives in the world and has been a light on the hill to a gloomy world. May his spirit lives on for generations as he has been a mighty tool in God's hands. My condolences to all his family and may he RIP. Richard Akau
Now That was CHURCH! God Bless the Schuller family during this time.
+Guy Mats No, that was positive thinking psycho-babble. Man centered message with no message of the Gospel, sin, repentance or forgiveness.
J Pep You claim to see the forest.....but you don't see the trees. RIP Dr. Schuller I miss you every Sunday. I'll never forget you! 🌹 Thank you for sharing God's hope, peace and love.
Guy Mats Indeed it was!!!!
I thought that the Doxology was a song at the end of the service. I also never have seen the microphone hanging around the neck like a necklace before. This was interesting. Fun to watch the history here. I have visited the cathedral many times growing up in the 90s and 2000s. Getting the flashlights on Christmas Eve was always so cool.
An Star,A Stars!
I’m blessed to have found a collection of Robert Schuller’s books at a thrift store.
Now I come across this sermon.
Wow...
God’s always present.
Cars and the people indoors WOW!!!
"This message opens my heart to Jesus." - Cole Sullivan age 10
HE TOUCHED MILLIONS WITH THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST! GO FOR GOD! -B.D.
The gospel is a little watered down here, but I think in many of these mega churches the gospel is fairly watered down. Wouldn't want to offend anybody after all. We want to call ourselves Christians with none of the personal responsibility of being. At least they're using scripture here. Praise! Thank you for sharing this video.
Robert Schuller was a true Man of God. I am awoken each morning by my Alarm Clock, the 2001 Crystal Cathedral present to Eagle Club Members, I read by the light of My Christ the Shepherd lamp, the 2006 Eagle Club Member gift from The Crystal Cathedral. All around my house are reminders of Robert Schuller and the Crystal Cathedral. Jesus Christ talked to me through this humble, plain spoken man. Reverend Schuller is home now with Jesus, God the Father and His wonderful, faithful wife Arvella, they are now making music for God, in person. God loves You All and so do I. May the Lord Shine upon each and every one of You.
I liked him to a good pastor. Jesus is Lord.
James Jackson Thanks for Your reply. I so looked forward to seeing Him every Sunday Morning. His Grandson Bobby is a pretty good Shepherd, to bad that He wasn't old enough to take over the Crystal Cathedral when Robert H. was ready to retire.
I heard his grand son has a ministry. I don't know if it is true.
James Jackson It's true, it's the Hour of Power, not very far from the Crystal cathedral. I had it on cable but lost it a few months ago. I'll see if I can get the address for you. Here is the basic address. Peace2you www.hourofpower.org/about/pastor-bobby-schuller.php

A GREAT SERVANT
OF GOD ALMIGHTY. REV. SCHULLER.
THANK YOU GOD.
Lord Jesus please look after Robert H. Schuller and Billy Graham.
When Robert Schuller had his "Hour of "Power" on television I really enjoyed watching and listening to the program. I always found it very positive and uplifting. This was especially appreciated when I had a really bad day Saturday. I'm really glad that I can listen to these sermons again on RUclips!
Whatever happened to the Sparrow’s Club? Your Grandpa put his hand on me, and said, “he loved Positive Thinkers, don’t you? “. Loved him and his messages.
Marion! It brings me joy to inform you that the Sparrow's Club will be beginning again in March!
RIP Rev Schuller. Very sad to hear, he made a difference in the lives of many with his sermons. I enjoyed watching this, thank you for posting, it's a great tribute. Would love to see more of the older videos. Just wondering what year this was?
1970
I sat in his teachings 20 years. I miss this type church service. I was also a trained "New Hope Counselor" with the church New Hope Help Line.
Aeons Ago In Time!
The Light!
would be great if all of the old sermons were available. I've searched YT and this is the first that I have found. Are there more? I loved this program especially before the Crystal Cathedral. There was something quite lovely about the this church.
Me too, would love to see the second service and so on. This was a very good sermon and hope to hear more to learn from.
@@thomasm1281 Let's hope they offer more of the sermons before the move to the Crystal Cathedral on YT. Those I think were some of the best he ever delivered.
@@cuddlycrow198 Should we write to rev. Bobby Schuller ? And wow..that church was packed! Schuller was a man of great importance to the congregation and very charismatic everyone was hanging to his lips
This show premiered on KTLA 5 on 8 February 1970
Amen #YouareBeloved
in here he refers to his age as 43, so means this service was from 1969 / 70
The first HoP TV broadcast was 1970, so yeah.
i thank you Lord
Pre AI (and pre large scale urban terrorism) before random people could psychologically manipulate and torture whomever they chose.
I revisited this program to see if I still viewed his humility/integrity the same as I did as a kid. I do, this is very refreshing.
Bear in mind the fact that among the audience he was talking to people born in 1910 and 1920.
I was not a regular viewer of his ministry hour. However on the rare occasion I watched it was in the "Crystal Cathedral" complex. Having heard he started his ministry with a drive-in audience years before I had no idea there was tape of that, and here it is.
Time changes a lot of things. I think even with better management the campus of the Cathedral and associated buildings would have been sold by now. Why? Look at the congregation. White Protestant California with few to no exceptions. That world is, as the old movie title says: "Gone with the wind".
Where would you find a thousand or even 800 Sunday worshipers for a dress up traditional Protestant service in and around Garden Grove now? They're gone to the grave or fell away from faith or fled SoCal for other places. It is appropriate that the big money of wealthy Catholics purchased Schuller's monument to faith. SoCal is now populated by Latinos, Filipinos, and Vietnamese and some old time European heritage Catholics. They deserve a nice cathedral and may they use it to the glory of God with a nod of appreciation to the Reformed Church minister whose dream it was.
I wished they hadn't covered the windows so much.
Good luck to you
Okay so you have the right
Respect for what this man created. People need Jesus Christ in their life.
the Rev. Raymond Bekkering baptized me :) (third pastor)
Check out those cars and fashions from that era! (1970)

MusicMan 78414 do you happen to know who was singing the beautiful hymn 'Spirit of God descend upon my heart' ?
In The Name Of Darkness,In The Name Of Light,In The Name Of Intellectual.
Who was singing before the sermon started ?
As he moved away from sound doctrine over the years I'd be curious to see what the last sermon he preached was like.
Meaning?
21:49 Robert Schuller's 1st sermon.
Octagon Shape Is 8 Sides And 8 Angles !
It Must Be Come The God Gospel Tent Revial Dome !
Of The Crystal Cathedral International !
In Garden Grove California !
1 Church In 6 Locations !
When did this first episode air? I am guessing 1969.
Schuller was, ultimately, a man who achieved his own vision, but who exercised his power to retain that vision within his own family.
He wasn’t developing young ministers under him, unless they were family members.
Schuller, who died a day shy of Good Friday, “had many, many family members on the church payroll,”. “In a political realm, we would call that nepotism - the benefits of an institution going by blood lines. But Schuller was very successful. He lived a life of great prestige, great wealth.”
At the end, though, having lost a court battle to recoup millions from his bankrupt ministries, Schuller died at an assisted living home in Artesia that accepts Medi-Cal.
What are they all checking their phones for when they are singing????
Requiescat in pace.
The First Origin!
Probably the early 1970's if not 1970.
Does anyone know the name of the very first him?

Where did Mr Schuller by his doctorate?
He was the Returned Christ who now sits at the Right Hand of the Master: Almighty God the Son
I'm not religious at all, but it's amazing how much better the American public looked back then. Today it is mostly slobs out there. We seem to have undergone some sort of cultural race to the bottom.
+EnergeticWaves That was the plan all along... America indeed WAS cleaner, fundamental honor and courage and was dominantly White, no question about it. You mention 'cultural race' but it was using multiculturalism to derail and ruin the culture. The pathetic thing is, anyone under 30 has NO CLUE.They've been so screwed up/alienated that they defend/support what's destroying them like self-imposed suicide pact.I don't know about "end-times" but it's certainly akin to the fall of the Roman empire.
Chris M So what do you see for the future of the usa? Keep in mind this place still has thousands of nuclear weapons. What happens to them if the dominant culture is gone? Has anybody even asked that question? I wish I could see this place in about a hundred years. Will it be a total slum as predicted in the movie ideocracy.
It's largely USA problem still. Many other countries still dress nice by large.
We are very sorry for the crystal cathedral so this cathedral became a catholic cathedral. Now it is Christ Cathedral.
