THIRTY YEARS BEHIND BARS - KEMPIS - GHANI - SONGSTAR and TERRELL CARTER PART 1

Terrell Carter is a pastor and the president of a community development organization. At 16, he felt the call to ministry to do what he can to improve people’s lives and help different groups understand each other. At 23, he thought he could do that as a police officer, and they offered him benefits that would support his growing family. After 5 years, he had to quit because he wouldn’t stand for the corruption in the force and testified against his partner. He’s written several books and runs Rise, a nonprofit organization working to connect communities with local institutions to empower the revitalization of neighborhoods in Greater St. Louis, while pastoring a church and raising his children.  Terrell has come on the podcast to shed light on his unique perspectives and experiences. He shares with us what it was like growing up black in a predominantly white community, how the police force didn’t fit with his life of Kingdom mission, and what it looks like to actually carry out the call of God to care for other people. One of his life goals is to bring different groups of people together through an understanding of each other, and today he is doing that by sharing his own story with us, who mostly come from a different background than his.  Starting points: 5:23 Terrell’s story 18:39 Why Terrell needed to come on the show 23:12 Terrell’s time on the force 29:48 Craig’s background 32:02 How we got here 38:18 Trying to reconcile policing as a Christian (not to mention a pastor) 41:43 Terrell’s life now 44:04 Rise   For Full Show Notes: https://www.thebadroman.com/show-notes/episode-56   Blog submissions: thebadroman.com/contribute-to-the-blog   Connect with us on social: thebadroman.com/social-links   Want to get more involved?
