Gilliam is a native Huntsvillian, father, graduate of Martin Methodist College, minister for eighteen years, one-time discoverer of an obscure North Alabama religious artifact, and lifelong student of secular and religious history in North Alabama and the Southeastern United States. An avid storyteller, Cody interweaves history in sermons and Bible studies.

Cody's peculiar storytelling ability will convey the emotion behind Huntsville's tales from beyond the chasm of this life and the next. In the right mood, Cody might even share his personal account of meeting a deceased circuit-riding predecessor who just can't seem to retire from the clerical state.
