Neil C. Ellis' 'Pursuing the Glory' in stores March 16, 2010: Second presiding Bishop to The Full Gospel Baptist Church Fellowship
and world renowed speaker's official book launch to be held at Tyler Perry Studios
 Understanding the Glory of God is an essential part to the growth
and maturity in the life of a believer. In "Pursuing the Glory," Bishop Neil C. Ellis profoundly reveals the various
dimensions of the Glory of God, and how you can prepare, receive and maintain both the power and presence of God in your life.
He specifically discusses the revelation of glory that came to him, after vocal cord surgery in 2007 where he was literally
in a place of silence for over 16 weeks.
"The first two weeks were the most difficult and frustrating; I almost
placed God on the witness stand. By the third and fourth week, my spirit had settled and I was able to manage my time and
rest in the peace of God. There was no pain whatsoever, just silence. Did you get that? No pain, just silence. During that
time the Lord started speaking so powerfully that I was able to prepare 42 sermons and complete my tenth book, The Power of
Pain. Around the end of the third week, the Lord spoke very clearly to my spirit and said, "When I raise you up and release
you to return to the pulpit, I want you to lead the way in getting my glory back into the church. Out of those 42 sermons
that I alluded to earlier, nine of those were messages on The Glory."
Bishop Ellis organized Mount Tabor Union
Baptist Church in February of 1987 with 13 members. Mount Tabor (now Full Gospel Baptist Church), is one of the fastest growing
churches in The Bahamas; and over the years the Ministry has emerged as the largest body of believers in the country. With
a membership of more than 7,000; the life-changing messages delivered by Bishop Ellis are regularly quoted throughout the
country and in the country's House of Parliament.
