God is love, power, and splendor—and God is a mystery. His ways are far beyond us, but He still reaches out to us. God is infinite yet intimate, three yet one,
all-knowing yet all-forgiving.

For five years running one of WGTS’ biggest events is the Summer Concert Series at Tysons Corner Center. Because of current rules regarding COVID-19 the station couldn’t invite thousands of listeners to come down the normal outdoor plaza venue. Through a partnership with the mall and a local mortgage company, the WGTS team was able to host the concert virtually. The WGTS team shot part of the concert in advance at the plaza at the mall. Part of the concert came from Matthew West’s “Story House”, and the rest of the concert was hosted from the WGTS video studio.
