Dr. William Boylan has served as the senior pastor of the Byfield Parish Church - America's first independent congregational church - since 1969. He now serves as Pastor Emeritus. Each week Signposts offers a glimpse of where America has been so we may see where we are going. Pastor Boylan's series of one-minute vignettes takes an often little known story from America's beginnings to provide insight into some of today's biggest issues. Signposts is broadcast on WEZE Boston 590 AM.
