St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in New York City has been a place of worship for jazz musicians and fans for nearly 40 years. In fact, jazz vespers and jazz funerals are a regular part of the church repertoire. Given the church’s unorthodox approach to religious observance, is it any surprise that its pastor, Dr. Dale Lind, earned his way through seminary as a bartender? Pastor Lind shares Jazz Ministry lore with Dean Olsher on the grounds of this unusual place of worship. Produced by Amanda Aronczyk.
