For most people, retirement means not working, traveling the country, keeping up with family and of course, spending time on the golf course! Isn’t that all a part of the American dream? However, the truth is that the majority of Americans nearing their retirement years don’t have the means to actually do it. In fact, statistics tell us that as many as 60% of Americans have no idea what they need to have in the way of retirement funds in order to maintain even their existing lifestyle. Let’s take a look at the Biblical basis for retirement and get you […]

In a recent marriage poll, one of the top things women said they needed from their husbands was security. This should come as no surprise. Married or not, most women long to find that sense of security that seems to always elude us. As children, we want to know that our parents are there waiting to scoop us up into their arms and tell us that everything will be okay. As we move on into the school years, we search for just one friend that can provide stability in an otherwise unstable world. Perhaps most pervasive amongst all our searching […]

My walk with Christ began when I was a meager seven years of age. One particular Sunday morning, sitting in a room at a certain church in Hollywood, FL, the youth pastor shared with us that God is holy but that we are not.

That day, I put my trust in the fact that Jesus had paid for every bad thing I had ever done by […]

Henry Drummond once remarked, “How many prodigals are kept out of the kingdom of God by the unlovely characters of those who profess to be inside!” To be sure, the statement is not theologically precise, but the point rings out loud and clear. The way we live our lives, our behaviors, our language, our kindness, our patience, our forgiveness, our acceptance, our critical spirit and so much more, paints a portrait of the God whom we profess to have faith in, to love, and to serve. So based on the confession of your life today, what kind of God do […]

While studying abroad in East Africa, Divinity Barkley, was moved to take action by the large number of youth who had resorted to petty crimes rather than continuing their education. At the young age of 23, Divinity started Amagezi Gemaanyi (Knowledge is Power) Guesthouse as a community learning center in Libya, providing outreach and education services to more than 800 youth living in urban poverty. In 2005, when Ashlee Smith was only six, her family’s house caught on fire; they lost everything. She wanted to help other kids like her cope with this kind of extreme loss, so Ashlee started […]

Fleeing police at age nineteen, Terryon was shot twice; once in the chest and another in the arm during an attempted armed robbery. He spent a month in the hospital, then three years in prison.

Urban Youth Impact (UYI) is an organization founded by Bill Hobbs (known as Mr. Bill on campus), whose mission is to love, equip and empower inner-city youth and their parents to fulfill their God-given purpose.
