KFUO is the official radio station of the LCMS. Among the programs broadcast on KFUO are "Thy Strong Word" and "Sharper Iron", hour-long programs that go through the Bible chapter by chapter (or sometimes chapters are broken up into more than one broadcast). Over a period of years, "Thy Strong Word" has covered the entire Bible (and "Sharper Iron" most of the Bible). Therefore, the "Through the Bible with KFUO" web site covers the entire Bible by referencing episodes of "The Strong Word" (and "Sharper Iron") for each of the chapters of the Bible.

The operation of this web page is straightforward. Selecting a book of the Bible from the drodown control will paint the table with all the chapters (as previously mentioned, sometimes chapters are broken up into multiple episodes) for that book. The first three images can then be used to access KFUO episodes that address that chapter of the Bible.

For example, selecting the book of Exodus results in the (partial) screen shot below.

Selecting an image other than one of the KFUO images ("KFUO Tag", "Thy Strong Word" and "Sharper Iron") will issue a request to another web site and will bring up another window showing the results of that request. The various images and the corresponding actions are:

- contains all the KFUO program episodes for the Bible passage (chapter).

- shows all episodes of "Thy Strong Word" (KFUO program) that cover all, or a portion, of the Bible passage (chapter)

- shows all episodes of "Sharper Iron" (KFUO program) that cover all, or a portion, of the Bible passage (chapter)

- uses the Bible Gateway web site (https://www.biblegateway.com) to generate the English Standard Version (ESV) text for the Bible passage (chapter).

- displays the text, and plays the audio recording (from the iBible web site), for the Bible passage (chapter). For the four Gospels, also shows a video re-enactment that goes with the audio recording.

- displays the Kretzmann's Popular Commentary text for the Bible passage (chapter)

- uses the ChatGPT chatbot (https://chatgpt.com) to generate an article covering the Bible passage (chapter) for that row. The request to ChatGPT is prefixed with "According to the LCMS," in order to flavor the response based on the LCMS. When ChatGPT is used, a simple web page with the request to ask ChatGPT is displayed. This request should be copied, which will bring up ChatGPT in another window. The request should then be pasted into the ChatGPT input field to request ChatGPT to generate the article.

- uses the Perplexity chatbot (https://perplexity.com) to generate an article covering the Bible passage (chapter) for that row. The request to Perplexity is prefixed with "According to the LCMS," in order to flavor the response based on the LCMS. Perplexity, unlike ChatGPT, includes the references it used in generating the article.

- uses the Google search engine (https://www.google.com) to generate results for the Bible passage (chapter) for that row. An LCMS keyword is added to the question/request to have Google flavor its response based on the LCMS.

- searches the LCMS sermons (https://lcmssermons.org) web site for sermon-related information pertinent to the Bible passage (chapter).
