Reverend
Walter Dubois
A
southern preacher based loosely on everybody yet nobody,
Dubois is a very funny and sometimes irreverent
speaker. A disclaimer is always given before he is
turned loose or rather introduced to speak in the
pulpit. He is a favorite among social and community
clubs and even though he becomes raucously funny, he can
lay out the pure Word of God with the best slick-haired,
bare-chinned, suited evangelist that ever faced a church
full of back row pew ploppers. His sermons include:
"Lay your whiskey bottle down" "Giddy-up Mule!" and
seasonal stories of "How Come Christmas?" and "The
Wonderfulest Christmas in the United States." Average
length of sermon: 25 minutes.

Jonathan Edwards
Premiered October 15,
2000, at New Hebron Baptist Church in Concord, GA.
Edwards, a Puritan during the 18th century, was a
prominent theologian who helped shape this country prior
to its Revolutionary War and consequent independence.
His sermon "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" is a
powerful example of puritan beliefs and its message is
still vibrant today. Length of complete sermon plus
remarks: 50 minutes.

Charles Wesley
Premiered April 30, 2001, at Fincher United Methodist
Church in Meansville, GA. Wesley sailed to America with
his brother John and landed at Frederica, Georgia, on
March 17, 1736. Several minutes later he stood beneath
a live oak and preached his inaugural sermon "On
Singleness of Intention." Georgia's founder, Gen. James
E. Oglethorpe, was in attendance. Outside or indoors,
this message still inspires service to God. Length of
drama: 30 minutes.
