Renegade Reporting With Stephen Seidel

ABOUT TODAY’S EPISODE: Arguably one of our most spiritual interviews to date, Pastor Terrence Brooks (@NewWineLB) opens up about his transition from a rough childhood in South Central LA to running New Wine Community Church (NewWineCC.com). After growing up amongst drugs and violence with gangs like the Bloods and Crips, Terrence used basketball as a vehicle to find his ultimate purpose in life. Pastor Brooks shares his compelling story, including the ethereal experience behind being saved … in more ways than one. He covers such topics as the importance of community, religion versus gospel, as well as simple steps we can all take to become the “Salt of the Earth.” TOPICS COVERED: Everyone has a Guardian angel, such as his Grandmother, who took him under his wing and moved him to Louisiana for a new life Every child needs a role model who supports them as they mature Organized sports provided structure, teamwork and a ticket to college Dallas provided seminary school, a chance to nurture his basketball skills
