by Jay Bakker
Talk presented Sat, May 21, 2005 at the Urban Youth Workers Institute Conference 2005.

Jay grew up seeing both the good and bad of the church. He searched to find out who God really was, and discovered that God is a loving God. As a result, Jay started a ministry called Revolution for those who feel rejected by the church. Jay will remind you that God calls us to reach outside the walls of the church to call the forgotten to the SAFETY of the loving arms of Christ.
