Bob Harrington, America's most unusual, exciting and flamboyant preacher known throughout the nation as the "Chaplain of Bourbon Street", will hold forth with his unique, dynamic style of preaching. "He's dynamite!" said the late Walter Brenndn, after hearing the preacher thunder out a phenomenal sermon. "He could be a great actor and make it big in Hollywood...and he still could!" , "Bob Harrington is the best standup man with a crowd...big or small...religious or not...in America today," proclaims Rex Humbard of television ministry fame. His entire ministry is based on the idea that it is fun being saved and doing God's labor. Red socks, a red tie, and red Bible always in hand, are this inan's trademark. Bob Harrington says they represent the blood of Jesus Christ. In his early days of ministering, in the French Quarter of New Orleans, he was rejected and harassed. One evening while he was preaching in front of a strip joint, a bar­ tender came out, poured a glass of beer over his head, and ripped several pages out of his Bible. The burly, six-foot plus preacher calmly admitted, "I am glad you did that". The irate bartender was obviously puzzled, but the preacher explained ; "Because now I know I am saved. If I didn't have the Lord in my heart, I would have stomped you through the blacktop." Today he is invited by club owners to preach from their bars and stages. He draws such crowds that one owner proposed, "I'd fire one of my strippers, if I could hire you." But he has a job and he takes it seriously. He personally counsels strippers, dope ad­ dicts, drunks...anyone who needs help. He rides with policemen, and even prays in alleys. In 1962, Victor Schiro, then mayor of New Orleans, of­ ficially proclaimed him the "Chaplain of Bourbon Street." The closest thing he had to a church was a regularly scheduled sermon at one of the bars. Before his encounter with Jesus, he was a successful insurance man.
