Dr. W. James Abbington, D.M.A. of Atlanta was a speaker at the Emmanuel's Ministers & Leaders Conference on two separate years.

He shared his immense wisdom and expertise on church music. This excerpt is from one of those occasions -- 2007, when he shared a discussion with Higher Ground National Minister of Music Garey Lewis.

Pray for him and his family, in this critical stage of his life.
