Noel Castellanos is the CEO of the Christian Community Development Association (CCDA) and the author of Where the Cross Meets the Street: What Happens to the Neighborhood When God Is at the Center. 

Noah Filipiak interviews Noel about the downside of American
Evangelicals being obsessed with going to heaven, but neglecting much of
Jesus's example and teaching.  Noel talks "behind the curtain" about
the challenge of doing urban ministry, but also the call behind it and
the purpose it brings. 


The CCDA National Conference is coming to Detroit, MI on October 4-7th, 2017 so be sure to save the date to join us.

August 20 - 30, 2016 CCDA practitioners walked a 150 mile pilgrimage
from the border of Mexico and California––El Camino del Inmigrante––to
share in solidarity with immigrants who are migrating across the world. 
You can follow walkers' blogs, stories and reflections along the way.
