"Elmer Gantry crossed with Lord Buckely. The Right Reverend Billy and his 
holy entourage sing out and street jam and heckle us out of our obscene 
over-consumption."
Joan Baez
"Jesus would buy this book, wave his hand, turn it into a best-seller, and 
say 'Thank you, Me!' for sending the world Reverend Billy!"
Morgan Spurlock author of Don't Eat This Book

Reverend Billy began his ministry in the mid-nineties as a sidewalk preacher 
at the front door of the Disney Store in New York City's Times Square. The 
Stop Shopping Church has grown and now holds regular "Fabulous Workshops" in 
St. Mark's Church in the East Village.
