How We Build and Scale Cherished Communities with Fr. Greg Boyle (Part 2)

Hunger for Wholeness: How We Build and Scale Cherished Communities with Fr. Greg Boyle (Part 2)In part two of Ilia Delio’s conversation with Fr. Greg Boyle, she asks why Homeboy Industries has been so successful in building and scaling such impactful work, and how (or whether) it can be replicated elsewhere. Then, they discuss the pros and cons of contemporary scientific outlooks, how they can help and how they can hurt, and what’s needed to cultivate hope for future progress.ABOUT FR.
