James Kirkwood, Director of Memphis Christian Pastors Network and Brandon Terry, 2nd Presbyterian Church in Memphis join host Byron Tyler on this episode of Mid-South View Point. On April 4, 2018, The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention and the Gospel Coalition co-convened a conversation among evangelicals of various denominations, color, and creed to honor the King Legacy and reflect on the state of racial unity in the church and the culture. Sensing that more than a two-day talkfest was needed to make a lasting impact in Memphis, local church pastors agreed that funding education would provide such an impact. Out of this work was born The Dream Forward Scholarship Initiative. James and Brandon share details about this Scholarship Initiative and about a college fair planned for February 16, 2019 at a local church for graduating seniors to interact with representatives from various sponsoring colleges and universities. Mid-South View Point radio show airs Wednesday and Thursday at 3:00 pm on the Bott Radio Network affiliate 640 AM and 100.7 FM in Memphis, TN.
