Skip Weiford announced his calling to become a pastor at the age of 43, a year after he found Christ . He shares his passion for Harleys and his love for the lord with the leather clad members of his congregation at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Bakersville, NC.

“From the congregation, to the man out here on a bike that’s never heard about salvation. Whos willing to listen, I’ll tell em about it.”
