Summary: Reverend Otis Moss III serves as Senior Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. His passion for youth and intergenerational ministry has led him to create the Issachar Movement, a consulting group designed to bridge the generation gap within churches and to train a new generation of prophetic church leadership. The African American Pulpit Journal, along with BeliefNet, named Reverend Moss as one of the "20 to Watch" ministers who will shape the future of the African American. Rev. Moss joins Reverend Dr. Joan Brown Campbell, Chautauqua Institution’s director of Religion, as he addresses the growing sentiment of cynicism in the U.S. and the loss of the ethic of love. Rev. Moss explains what the essence of youth leadership in a church requires and how to redefine the role of the church to meet this non-negotiable task. The discussion expands into the four aspects a faith community should focus on to bring compassion and justice to the forefront. Moss explains how transformation cannot come from a political arena and he elaborates on who he believes is currently the ONLY viable news media figure of his generation.
