Rev. Dr. Kenneth Kemble has been a minister for over thirty years. Being the son of a minister, he grew up in church, and felt the calling of God upon his life at an early age. He has preached to interested groups all across the country, as well as numerous tours to Canada and overseas. He has spoken to churches of just about every Protestant denomination, led numerous Bible studies in homes, has preached at camps, on television and radio, and has even preached from a loft in a barn.
