Once a gang leader and drug addict, Joseph now speaks to hundreds of thousands of youth each year about the pitfalls of growing up in America. He travels the United States as an evangelist and national motivational speaker, and has spoken to over two million young people in his travels. He is the author of Prisoner of the American Dream. He has served by appointment of President George W. Bush on the Advisory Council for the Prevention of HIV/AIDS as a National Youth Advocate.
Raised in the Black ghetto of South Bend, Indiana, Joseph is the oldest of nine brothers. Steeped in a lifestyle of gang and drug related violence, Joseph stopped at nothing in his attempt to attain the material success he thought was the fulfillment of the American Dream. His quest resulted in his being shot thirteen times, stabbed, burned, and left empty. Then God took over his life and everything changed. His story is powerful and his life a testimony to the mercy and grace of God.
Dr. Jennings is available for speaking at schools and churches in your community. He and Dr. Hostetter are also available for conducting conferences based on the themes of their book.
