Said a fellow clergyman: "Who's Who is on his side-even if Episcopal doctrine is not." At Pasco, Kinsolving has broken all church attendance records, more than doubled church pledges...
...trouble began with a sermon in Pasco's Church of Our Saviour by energetic Rector Charles Lester Kinsolving, 30. "Hell," he preached, "is a damnable doctrine-responsible for a large measure of this world's hatred.
