Florida Conference of Seventh-day Adventists

by Sandy Doran
Eric Doran, pastor of Kress Memorial Church in Winter Park, recently received his doctor of ministry degree from the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary at Andrews University. Doran’s dissertation focused on the sermons of radio evangelist H.M.S. Richards as a basis for examining the distinct purpose of Seventh-day Adventist preaching.
“This has been a deeply spiritual journey for me,” he says. “I am grateful to Florida Conference for providing this opportunity which has led me to re-examine my preaching in light of the unique message and mission of the Seventh-day Adventist Church.”
Doran received his degree at Pioneer Memorial Church in Berrien Springs, Michigan, on May 1, along with graduates from more than 50 countries.
