What People Are Saying

“It is obviously a high quality video that keeps things moving and very interesting. I was impressed.”

Pastor Stephen J. Sabol

“Very excellent work.  [It] captured the issues sensitively and provocatively.”

Bob Lupton

“You are creating the perfect tool to talk about these issues that so many people either avoid or don’t have a clue about.  I have been trying to talk about the suburbanization of poverty, this transition, for several years now.  I am serious about purchasing some of your DVD’s to give to some ministry leader friends who need to deal with this.”

Dave Clark, CCDA

“...it is eye-catching, thought provoking, & intriguing.” 

Donna Nelson

“I struggle with these questions daily....not only personally facing my own selfishness and poverty but how to go into the world and truly make a difference in the lives of the hurting.  I long to be in conversation and struggle with others about this rather than struggling by myself and not getting anywhere.”

Lisa Harman, Food for the Hungry

“Very well done in every way and I’m looking forward to using it with a team I’m facilitating and seeing where we go with it from there.”

Alf Nelson, Grace Fellowship Church

“I'm incredibly encouraged by what you're doing here, especially the depth at which the DVD explores reciprocal relationships in ministry. In the end, it all starts with relationships, and I think this [video] did a really remarkable job of getting people to that step. You successfully gave practical steps, but also pushed an outlook on urban ministry that will encourage authentic relationships! Great job.”

Drew Howe

“The video was shown in all worship services this past Sunday and was highly effective in terms of communicating reality and opportunity, as well as motivation and affirmation.  Just wonderful.”  

Steve Goold, New Hope Church

“I found it very cool, exciting, professionally done, and helpful.”

Scott Dixon, Cedarville University

“It's something I feel so passionate about - yet often find it difficult to communicate in a way that makes sense to my other white sisters & brothers.  Thank you for attempting something so powerful & beautiful.”

Emily White Hodge

“This is excellent!  It brought me to repentance...and or is bringing me to continued repentance.”

Peter Howard

“Thank you for all the work you are doing...you are making a major difference and are making my life and the lives of other people of color a lot easier for the future, your work in invaluable and a much needed work! Keep it up!”

Dan Hodge

“I loved the video.  Tears literally came to my eyes.”

Jacob McMahan

“The editing, content and spirit of this project are excellent. [It] should challenge many congregations to have that vital conversation about race.” 

Patricia Raybon, Author My First White Friend and I Told the Mountain to Move

“Stinking powerful!”

Brad Widstrom, Denver Seminary

“Deeply enjoyed this...your ministry represents an untapped gold mine.”

Ric Feeney

“Our challenge is to come up with ways to motivate not only ourselves but also those around us to meaningfully care for the poor.  Thankfully, Urban Entry has done much that work for us with thoughtful, inspiring videos that capture the essence of our questions and challenge us all to act in a way that advances mercy and justice in our communities.  Praise God for Urban Entry.”
