Voices of Faith at Work in the World

About this Collection

Faith groups represented include African Methodist Episcopal, Baptist, Episcopal, Lutheran, Mennonite, Methodist, Presbyterian, Quaker, Roman Catholic, Salvation Army, United Church of Christ, United Methodist, and others.

This SoundTheology online archive is an independent service of Audio-Rescue.com, provided in conjunction with the United Methodist General Commission on Archives and History (GCAH). Many of these programs would have been lost forever if not saved in this project. The originating institutions have made the recordings available for public access to further private study, scholarship, and research. They retain the rights to the recordings.

Randomly-chosen Program From This Collection:

Description: A sermon preached at Church of the Saviour in Washington, DC., shortly after his time in Israel. Scripture: Psalm 46:8-11, Ephesians 1:9-11, 2:13-16, 3:20-4:6, Luke 19:35-43. Neville Watson is a minister, a lawyer, and a poet. He has always focused on peace and social justice. In 1952 he went to the Third World Conference of Christian Youth in India with Bob Hawke. Bob lost his faith at that time; Neville's was radicalized. In 1955 he was admitted as a Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Western Australia and in 1959 was ordained within the Methodist Church. He describes himself as a lawyer by trade and a Minister by calling. In recent years, he was a peace advocate in Baghdad, Iraq.
