A renomada Urban Promise transforma meninos em homens! Todos os pais que sonham que o filho seja alguém, sonham com a Urban Promise. Uma escola de reputação impecável que faz todos os alunos alcaçarem a grandeza. Isso é, se eles seguirem a disciplina rígida imposta com pulso de ferro pelo diretor Keneth Moore, também fundador da instituição e membro respeitável da comunidade. Caso não, bem... pode ser que tudo se torne um pesadelo. Se por fora tudo parece perfeito, por dentro, as coisas são bem diferentes. De alunos a professores, todos têm motivos para destestar o diretor. Prova disso é que Moore é encontrado morto nas instalações da escola. As evidências (e suspeitas) recaem em três alunos: J.B., Ramón e Trey. Dois alunos negros e um latino que tinham “problemas” recorrentes com o diretor e, ainda por cima, estavam na detenção na hora do crime. Eles tinham oportunidade, meios e, principalmente, motivos para assassinar o diretor. Os três juram que são inocentes. E, sem ter a quem recorrer, decidem se juntar para seguir as pistas e provar que apesar de suas etnias e origens, e de suas existências estarem atreladas à cor de suas peles, eles não vão deixar que as circunstâncias definam seus destinos. Mas será que eles poderão confiar uns nos outros? Livro: https://amzn.to/44HtWp0 Twitter e insta: @termineicast

Thirty years ago in a dusty church basement in East Camden, a vision was set in motion that would create a dramatic positive impact in the community and eventually change the world. Bruce and a group of college missionaries created a summer camp for neighborhood children--providing a safe, loving, fun, and creative place for local youth to escape dangerous city streets. Thanks to Bruce and those college students the Urban Promise mission has turned into a global operation. When I am joined by Bruce Main, You will hear this very special story that will inspire you and give you more than hope. It will give you faith. This will be a very special Flashpoint Friday for sure!! Bruce speaks nationally and internationally at mission conferences, colleges, churches, and business seminars.

A stand alone message from Bruce Main, the President and Founder of Urban Promise Ministries in Camden, NJ
“I once was lost but now I’m found. Was blind but now I see.” These lyrics seem to paint a clear picture of Duane Forrest’s youth. Whether or not it was ‘Amazing Grace’ we don’t know, but Duane says God saved him through music and art. If it weren’t for these he says he never would’ve graduated from high school. Years later while living in Honduras with Urban Promise, grace showed up again. This time it saved others through art and music. Returning the favour he once received, Duane created, Genesis Community of the Arts. An initiative that fosters the growth of creative programs in Honduras. From writing 36 songs in 30 days, under the Tuscan sun to playing in a Parisian basketball league, Duane is gracefully travelling the planet and sharing his musical gifts in the process. His next stop??? Edinburgh, Scotland with his production, Climb the Musical. Ladies and gentlemen, Duane Forrest. FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM Michael - https://www.instagram.com/michaelreve...

My guest on the podcast this week is Margot Starbuck. I love Margot so much. She’s funny and whip-smart and you're going to love my conversation with her about her community, "North Street Neighborhood", a neuro-diverse community built around person with disability. We break down some terms and she gives us the most incredibly Shalom Steps. You know, I sometimes feel so out of depth when it comes to being a good friend to persons with disabilities. But by the end of my conversation with Margot, I was so empowered that I rallied my kids to go to the upcoming Special Olympics and..y'all...IT WAS AMAZING! I hope you take a listen because there's some good stuff for everyone of us in this episode. Plus, we laugh...a lot! I've known about Margot for a little bit now because I review books for one of her publishers, Herald Press. Margot Starbuck is passionate about effective communication. She's the author of seven books and a quiet collaborator on others. She speaks to audiences across the country about living the revolutionary Jesus way in the world today. In 2016 she's sharing about living from the solid place: #livebeloved365 Which I SO encourage you to check out! She's passionate about equipping folks to love our (sometimes unlikely or overlooked) neighbors and that's what we dig into in this episode of "Shalom in the City" Shalom Steps Books/Authors Mentioned in the Episode* *As always, if you use the links to the "Shalom Bookstore" to purchase your books, then a few pennies will be kicked over to me to keep the podcast up and running. Margot mentioned a fun video of an impromptu concert with her neighbors and friends from Urban Promise in the show. Here's that video: I seriously wanna move to Durham, y'all! Wait...what am I talk about? I love LA, I need to come alongside a Friendship House here and help create shalom through dancing and singing just like this. I hope you love today's episode and if you do let me know by leaving a reaview on iTunes. Did ya'll know "Shalom in the City" made New and Noteworthy last week? It did! I'm so thrilled. The more weeks it can stay on the list, the easier it'll be for fellow shalom sistas to find the show. So, pop over and leave a review when you get a chance. Eeep! You can learn more about the North Street Neighborhood on their site. You can find Margot on her site, Margostarbuck.com or follow her on Facebook. As always, you can continue the conversation in the Shalom Sistas Hangout. Shalom in your earbuds, y'all! ~Osheta
