Reverend William Bell Glenesk discusses his ministry

Digital audio not yet public.

Synopsis

Becoming a preacher was the last thing Reverend William Bell Glenesk ever had in mind. Glenesk found ministers and their sermons to be long and boring. The church, Glenesk said is very much like theatre and he wanted people to attend church or the gymnasium of God and to be a part of lots of music and dance.
