Bill Hobbs, Founder of Urban Youth Impact, sits down with the Power2B show to discuss is journey of faith. Knowing God was calling him to minister to inner-city youth, Pastor Bill Hobbs left his professional golf career in 1988, which included working for Jack Nicklaus, to work with at-risk youth in Palm Beach County. In his desire to serve at-risk youth, Hobbs began bringing sports equipment and the Bible during his visits to children living in the housing projects along the Tamarind Avenue corridor. He noticed that the same 25 boys would come every week to hear about Jesus, how He loved them and how He had a plan for their lives. Because of his consistent compassion for the community, Bill became a trusted friend and father figure to the residents of Tamarind Avenue – one of the highest crime-ridden neighborhoods in the county.
He is also the author of “My Longest Drive, One Man’s Passion for the Urban Poor.”
