Rooftop Revelations: Churches everywhere on the South Side yet so much violence
Fox News
Pastor Corey Brooks and his assistant pastor TJ Grooms question why the churches have been largely ineffective against the forces of evil
"We had five kids who, in less than 24 hours, who were shot and killed," the pastor said. "We have churches everywhere, and we have a lot of great pastors who pastor these churches. But I'll be the first to say, even me, even you, even our church, we've not done enough for young people. Do you think that maybe we can solve a lot of these issues with the violence if our churches were getting more engaged?"
"You can have a collection of churches, but having a connection of churches is totally different," Grooms said. "I think what happens is, we get caught up in being in our own islands and our own silos, and I think it's one of two parts. One is a little bit of ego. And two, I think that sometimes we wonder if God is really big enough to handle our work and somebody else’s."
