CU to host Herald-Leader columnist at KHIPP Sept. 28, 2009 By Adam Goodlett, CU student news writer Paul Prather, pastor of Bethesda Church in Mt. Sterling, Ky., and contributing columnist for the Lexington Herald-Leader, will speak at Campbellsville Universitys Kentucky Heartland Institute on Public Policy (KHIPP) event at 5:00pmCT Monday, September 28, 2009, in the Banquet Hall of the Student Union Building located at 110 University DR, Campbellsville, KY. Prather will be discussing Evangelical Christians The Intersection of Faith and Public Policy. The goal of the KHIPP is to present the public with a greater awareness and understanding of the myriad issues confronting our culture, said John Chowning, vice president for church and external relations and executive assistant to the president, who founded KHIPP. Chowning invites the public to the event, which is free. Prather graduated from Campbellsville High School in 1974 and attended Campbellsville College from 1974 to 1975. Prathers father, L. Paul Prather, was the preacher of a local church in Campbellsville before moving to Mount Sterling in 1973 to take a full-time pastor position at the Reid Village Baptist Church, and in 1976 left the Baptist church to form an independent church known as Faith Full Gospel Church. Prather met and married his wife, Renee Williams, a few years prior to becoming the pastor at Pentecostal Grace Church in 1982. That same year, he received a bachelors degree in English from the University of Kentucky. The following year, Prather and his wife celebrated the birth of their son, John. Prather received a master of arts in English in 1984 and began his quest for a Ph.D. in communications. He left his doctoral studies in 1988 to work for the Lexington Herald-Leader as a business journalist. By 1990 he became the newspapers religion writer. In 1996 Faith Full Gospel Church and Pentecostal Grace combined to form Bethesda Church. In 1997 Prather quit writing full time for the Herald-Leader, and in 1999 he took over as full-time pastor of Bethesda Church. In 2002 he became a contributing columnist to the Herald-Leaders Faith and Values section. Prather lost his wife to a five-year battle with cancer in 2005, a struggle in which he has sometimes chronicled in his Herald-Leader columns. Prather was not only a journalist, but he has also written and published three books: Lifes a Dance: the John Michael Montgomery Story in 1995; Modern Day Miracles in 1996, and Back Porch Faith in 1999.
