In this episode of I'm Glad I Heard That we're joined by Matt Cripps from Good News Gang in Detroit! Good News Gang is a children’s outreach under the covering of Metro Life Church.

GNG is dedicated to providing hope and building brighter futures for our children in Detroit since 1989. Good News Gang is committed to serving boys & girls growing up in the roughest circumstances and neighborhoods in Detroit.

Messages are presented that transforms young people on the inside, so that they will be able to resist the obstacles that try to destroy them daily. The concepts Metro has developed are based upon the Word of God. Our focus is based on a principle that it is better to build boys & girls today than to repair men and women tomorrow.

Each of our programs, are purposefully designed to break destructive cycles and give children the hope they need to create a new path for their lives; founded on the life-changing power of the Gospel, and reinforced by relationship and meeting physical needs. God has turned the lives of countless children around but there are so many more to be rescued.

Good News Gang is supported monthly by the generosity of individuals who have a passion to change the city of Detroit one child at a time.
