Pastor to the People.

     Meet one of the finest story-tellers you'll ever hear.  A talented broadcaster,  author and newspaper columnist, Rev Jim Rea is many more things besides.  A former Methodist President in Ireland, a pastor in both countryside and city alike, Jim was a peacemaker at the centre of early talks with paramilitaries on both sides of the conflict in Northern Ireland.  He was also a prime mover at the birth of East Belfast Mission on the Newtownards Road.

When Kerry and Will invited Jim into Studio 2 at Commission, they knew they'd hear a wonderful series of fascinating, funny, thoughtful and moving stories about Jim's life and ministry.  Listen out for the best description of a committee ever!
