It could be a result of the economy or it could be something much deeper, but more and more twenty-plus year olds seem to be living at home. Single, in or out of school or in or out of work, they are returning home to live and their parents are trying to figure out how to handle it. The whole term “Adult-child” sounds like an oxymoron, but in this case it just might be the perfect label. The offspring is over the age of twenty, so he or she wants to be treated like an adult; they want all the […]

Sometimes in life we have the opportunity to come across people who have been propelled into positive change through difficulties and suffering that were beyond their control – health issues, job loss, death of a loved one, etc. For these people, the catalyst was in fact the hardship or adversity they faced. Kim Canavan is no stranger to suffering … but instead of letting her circumstances dictate and control her attitude and life course, she battled through it and was victorious. If you had met Kim a little over ten years ago you would have probably thought that she “had […]

After recently watching the How to End Gendercide video on the All Girls Allowed website, a flurry of emotions came over me; it began with a mixture of confusion, distress and worry and ended with a feeling of hope. I couldn’t help but imagine if I had been born in China, I could have possibly faced being abused, tortured, kidnapped, trafficked or even murdered…just for being a girl. Hearing the term “It’s a Girl” in China does not have the same joyous ring to it that it has here in the United States. In fact, it often comes along with […]

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.

Beauty for Ashes

“Beauty for Ashes” is a unique production which combines dance, drama and more to expose the present day tragedy known as Human Trafficking. While Human Trafficking may be the current “technical term” to define the movement of humans across state and international borders, the heart wrenching reality is that it’s slavery. Men, women and children being sold for the purposes of sexual exploitation, child soldiers and/or forced labor is so unbelievable to comprehend, that it’s left many in denial and disbelief. But it’s more than real. What’s more shocking is that it’s not only happening in third world countries, it’s […]
