The Rev William Sloane Coffin is no ordinary minister. Once a CIA officer training agents to parachute into Russia, he became Chaplain of Yale and was twice arrested in the 1960s for his part in the student campaign of civil disobedience. Now, much to his surprise, he has been invited to America's most prestigious Protestant pulpit - Riverside Church, in New York's Manhattan.
"I would like to think I will always maintain a healthy disregard for respectability. After all, faith means you can have a thumb-nosing independence of all the powers of Death Militant."
