"It's not about reaching folks at the margins. It's about allowing yourself to be reached." - Fr. Greg Boyle
Fr. Greg Boyle is the founder of Homeboy Industries, the largest gang intervention program in the country. We’re honored to talk to him about his 30+ years of serving the gang-involved and previously incarcerated.
Join T.J. and Greg for a conversation about wisdom and love born out of the cracked concrete of real life -- about seeing the thorns beneath each other’s pain and how if you don’t welcome you’re own wound, you’ll be tempted to despise the wounded. The culture of Homeboy Industries is a vision for repairing severed belonging for us all.
Fr. Greg is the author of the New York Times Bestselling book Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion. His third and most recent book The Whole Language: The Power of Extravagant Tenderness is currently available.
Homeboy Industries is located in downtown Los Angeles and provides hope and job training for formerly gang-involved and previously incarcerated people so they can redirect their lives and become contributing members of society.
Hosted by T.J. Berden.
Produced by Sam Buti.
