Pastoring 53 Years, With Bobby Utley

About this episode

An interview with Bobby Utley, reflecting on his 53 years of pastoring and his influence in the Bible Belt.

This is a biographical interview with my former pastor of around 18 years, brother Bobby Utley of Kannapolis, NC. God has used this man in many ways to be a beacon of the King James Bible believing way in the heart of the Bible Belt. A friend of Dr. Peter Ruckman and other great preachers, he has a lot of good stories from his 53 years of pastoring. If you have any questions or comments, please email kyle.kiker@1611ministries.org. Thanks for watching/listening.
