"Frank Cowell was raised in the Anglican faith, but in time he began to search elsewhere for the truth. A visit to a Kingdom Hall led to a study of the Bible with Jehovah's Witnesses. He now works as a professor of economics in London, but when his college schedules seminars on evenings that congregation meetings are held, his decisions show that he is first of all one of Jehovah's Witnesses."
