    Meet Albert Willis

    Albert Willis grew up in Tylertown, Mississippi where he helped deliver furniture for his parents' hardware and furniture store. As a very inquisitive child, he found himself getting in trouble on a fairly regular basis. Through these troubles, he learned forgiveness, and the power of confession from those he had offended through his trouble making. He slowly, but surely, began to work out his salvation by embracing his love of singing, which allowed him to travel the world with various Christian music groups. He joins Denna Hornby to share some of the moments that led him to follow the call to ministry where he is now the pastor of Algood United Methodist Church.

    Meet Reverend Christian Smith

    Reverend Christian Smith grew up in Murfreesboro, one of five sons of a minister. He always had a good church background growing up, but never considered going into ministry until his teenage years. Around the age of 15, he asked God for a sign, and should one appear, he would devote himself to ministry. That Sunday, he was asked to preach a service for a Youth Sunday at his church at the time, and it was then that he surrendered himself to ministry. He would then become ordained for the first time at the age of 19, and eventually would begin to travel while pastoring at various churches. He joins Denna Hornby to share his journey which has led him to Cookeville where he is now the pastor of Cookeville First Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
