Episode Synopsis

Gabrielle Beam joins PEACE TALKS to talk about the lifelong connection between literacy and justice. Gabrielle is a seasoned inner-city pastor and the founder of Rise to Read, an organization focused on eliminating early childhood illiteracy in her home of Bridgeport, Connecticut. Gabrielle shares about the well-trodden path from illiteracy to incarceration, ways she helps kids begin reading on level, and what happened when Rise to Read began to distribute the Jesus Storybook Bible. » Subscribe to PEACE TALKS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNGKBOMluaCtXsAethMSxzw» Watch the latest from PEACE TALKS: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNGKBOMluaCtXsAethMSxzw/videosAbout the Center for Formation, Justice and Peace: Justice and peace come from the inside out—from the overflow of a transformed heart. This belief led our founder, Bishop Todd Hunter, to start the Center for Formation, Justice and Peace in 2021. The Center brings together a diverse, interdenominational community of people who want to be formed in love to heal a broken world. Because “religion” is often part of the problem, we’ve created a brave, Jesus-centered space for dialogue, questioning, creating and exploration. PEACE TALKS introduces you to women and men who are working to undo oppression, leading to lives of deeper peace for all.*Connect with The Center Online!*Visit The Center's Website: https://centerfjp.orgFollow The Center on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/centerfjpFollow The Center on Twitter: https://twitter.com/CenterFjpFollow The Center on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/centerfjp/Watch the full episode: https://youtu.be/YWyEfd7wIlA#peacemaking #justice #love #christians #injustice #literacy #illiteracy #literacyandjustice #justiceandliteracy #risetoread #gabriellebeam #bridgeportCTSupport the show
