Since retirement, he has served as transitional pastor of three churches in Cleveland, Tennessee. His weekly sermons were widely published by Joy to You, a non-profit ministry of University Baptist Church during two years of his ministry.
Meeting twenty-eight-year-old Billy Reid, Phillips was impressed with the miraculous change in his life. The kindly, pleasant, and bold young man he met was the opposite of the angry, bitter, uncontrolled teen delivered by family and authorities to State School in Columbus, Ohio, at age thirteen. Bill’s gripping story of release from State School, years of drugs and alcohol abuse, and suicidal attempts led Phillips to write Call Me Bill! His purpose is to encourage others on the brink of despair to escape their personal pain and find the hope and peace Reid lives today and shares with others.
Phillips and his wife, Anne, now live in Cleveland, Tennessee, and continue an active ministry as a transitional pastor. Both their previous spouses are deceased. They have five children from previous marriages who are active in business and ministry across the United States.
