Pentecostal Clergy on the Absence of Black Fathers
Wednesday, July 27th, 2005Kudos to Rev. Eugene Rivers for making noise about a critical issue within low-income (not just black) neighborhoods. “Father absence is the bane of the black community, predisposing its children (boys especially, but increasingly girls as well) to school failure, criminal behavior and economic hardship — and to an intergenerational repetition of the grim cycle.

His Spirit Moves Them
Wednesday, July 13th, 2005CityTribe church, pastored by my friend Juan Galloway, was featured in Sunday’s Star Ledger, New Jersey’s largest newspaper. “It was a winter night, cold.

Tuesday, May 24th, 2005A couple of weeks ago a visitor to the Billy Graham office here in New York asked if I was from California. Said I was too laid back to be a New Yorker, and my shaggy hair gives off a surfer vibe. Nah, I’m definitely a New Yawka, born and raised. I love living in [...]
This is why
Tuesday, May 17th, 2005“I have heard many times, from students who share the distinction of coming from the ‘projects,’ that their deepest fear is to try to ‘finish college,’ ‘lead a ministry,’ etc. — and fail. As a certified project girl I would like to challenge that. I think the ‘project plight’ lies not in the fear of [...]
