SUMMARY:Campolo Scholars Fellowship with Rev. Colin McCartney
DESCRIPTION:Rev. Colin McCartney meets with the Campolo Scholars for their weekly fellowship meeting. \nBiography \nColin is an ordained minister and founder of Connect City which exists to connect young leaders to God’s mission in Toronto’s most vulnerable communities. Connect does this by raising up leaders who can plant unique expressions of church to serve the neighborhood in practical\, Jesus centered\, ways. Rev McCartney is also a popular speaker who has spoken to audiences as large as 7\,000 people and is also one of four Speakers who is on World Vision Canada’s speaking list. \nColin is an urban ministry veteran with over 30 years of ministry experience in high–risk communities and has authored two bestselling books (“The Beautiful Disappointment” and “Red Letter Revolution” – Castle Quay Publishers) and just completed two more books (“What Does Justice Look Like” and “Let The Light In” – Herald Press). He is also a writer for “Seven” Magazine. Colin also hosted the popular “Red Letters” DVD with Dr. Tony Campolo. \nColin is married to Judith McCartney and has two children – Colin Junior and Victoria McCartney. Colin served as a Pastor at Parkway Bible Church in Toronto and his ministry at this church was known for its creative and aggressive outreach to the community and especially to “at risk” youth. While serving as a pastor he birthed many ministries: a drop – in centre for troubled teens\, a ministry to young offenders\, a ministry to the local high school and a Church for unChurched youth. After thirteen years of serving at this church Colin and Judith created UrbanPromise Toronto and faithfully led this ministry serving vulnerable people in low – income neighborhoods. After fourteen years at UrbanPromise Colin and Judith had a burden to expand their calling to reach vulnerable people through churches by raising up young adult leaders. Connect City was born “to extend the kingdom of God by developing a mission movement of young adults who will participate with the church to initiate and build sustainable ministries that exhibit the character and priorities of Jesus in Toronto’s most vulnerable communities.” You can learn more about Connect City at www.connectcity.org. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Campolo Scholars Forum with Roy Goble
DESCRIPTION:Roy Goble meets with the Campolo Scholars to lead their forum meeting. \nBiography\nAn entrepreneur and real estate developer for the last 30 years\, Roy Goble grew up working in his father’s junkyard\, where he learned to take apart absolutely anything and to evaluate everything for the value of its parts. After studying economics and business at Westmont College\, and marrying his high school sweetheart\, D’Aun\, he joined his family’s growing real estate business. Today he runs a real estate investment company based in Silicon Valley\, leads the ministry PathLight International\, and serves on multiple boards—while still finding time to visit and learn from friends and ministry partners around the world. \nRoy is the author of Junkyard Wisdom: Resisting the Whisper of Wealth in a World of Broken Parts (Deep River Books\, 2016). His second book\, Salvaged: Leadership Lessons Pulled from the Junkyard\, was published by NavPress in January ‘2019. \nFollowing Jesus has turned out to be harder and better than he ever imagined\, and sometimes he misses the simplicity of selling parts in the junkyard. After thirty-five years of marriage\, however\, D’Aun tells him he already owns too many old cars.
