1939: The ministry was founded by Joy Ridderhof in Los Angeles USA. Because of her impoverished position Joy was totally dependent on the Lord for financial provision. Thus the ministry was founded on a clear understanding of God's trustworthiness, and continues to maintain that position.
1953: Joy Ridderhof visited Australia en route for recording Gospel messages in PNG. She stayed with and enthused Stuart and Molly Mill, who with men such as Paul White, Ken Griffith and others commenced Gospel Recordings Inc Australia, situated in Sussex Street Sydney. Stuart Mill was Director. The main products were gospel messages on 78rpm gramophone records, and spring wound gramophones.
1957: Operations moved to a newly constructed factory at Eastwood. Staff expanded as young Christians saw this as an exciting field for evangelistic service. The Phonette was invented as the first hand wind, motorless record player. New Centres were spawned: GR-USA commenced a base in the UK; and Australia, with help USA, supplied the plant and machinery and staff for a centre in Bangalore India. Meanwhile recording technicians were trained and sent to many countries.
