US Jesuit priest Greg Boyle, founder and director of Homeboy Industries, the world's largest gang intervention and rehabilitation programme gave an interview to Krista Tippett.
A few thoughts:
It's good to be with the demonising so that the demonising will stop.
Fr Boyle sees Jesus standing in the lowly places.
When asked why he joined the Jesuits, Fr Boyle replied: The reasons I joined are not the reasons why I stayed.
That is so true, real and makes great sense.
