This week our guest is John Carrol, the founder and Executive Director of City Leadership — the organization that created #choose901, #serve901, #teach901, #give901, and so much more. He has made connections to recruit, develop, and catalyze others for good since he showed up in Memphis 18 years ago. Listen as we discuss how to love Memphis, and see — at the same time — how God calls us to be like Jesus by identifying and repairing what is broken.
