On the Other Side of the Pulpit: God Is Still Real PAPERBACK 2021 BY S Neal Kendall

Description

Behind every great man is a great woman. This idiom applies to great ministers. Here is another idiom: Before every great preacher is a soloist. Before Dwight Moody there was Ira Sankey. Before Billy Graham there was George Beverly Shea. Before Dr. Dallas Billington there was Neal Kendall. This book is not about me. Its about a country preacher, Dallas F. Billington, who stood behind the pulpit and described the horrors of hell and that the only way to escape hell is, you must accept Christ. This book was written to show that it is possible for a man of God to uphold his Christian standards. He had the same message when he was out of the pulpit living his daily life through this sinful world, or behind the pulpit preaching the word of God. I was able to catch glimpses of those occasions, as I traveled with him to sing, at evangelistic meetings and various church and senior citizens dedications. Preacher’s theme was to, “Win the Lost at any Cost,” either from behind the pulpit or on the other side. Shirley Neal Kendall’s professional job was in the plastics industry. He assumed the titles of Technical Director and Laboratory Manager. His career led him to Brussels, Belgium, and he became Executive Director of European Operations. He also served as an expert witness in court proceedings.His company sent him to Belgium to build two plants. However, it became clear that God sent him there to build a church. It was estimated that 25,000 English speaking people resided in Brussels and did not have a church home because the language in the churches was either French or Flemish. An English-speaking church was established, and Neal taught the adult Bible class until they hired two full time Baptist ministers. He taught Bible classes in Brussels, in Anniston, Alabama, and at the Akron Baptist Temple. His first love has been quartet singing and close harmony. He was also a featured soloist at The Akron Baptist Temple.
