The Rev. Jeremiah Wright visited his old pulpit at Trinity United Church of Chicago last Sunday, Manya Bracher of the Trib reports.

Church officials turned reporters away from the worship service, Manya writes, but services were streamed live on the Internet, and audio and video recordings were sold in the church bookstore.

Money quote: “Jesus said upon this rock I will build-listen to the promise-my church,” Wright said. “And the gates of Hell-listen to the promise-the gates of Hell-neither ABC nor CNN-the gates of Hell-neither Hannity nor O’Reilly-the gates of Hell-neither Time, Time magazine, Chicago Sun Times, Chicago Tribune … the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. Nothing will be impossible with God.”
