I do believe we can reach at-risk kids. We can make a difference in their lives. For the most part they are just unruly kids who need discipline and guidance.

I don't care how often he comes to town, the kids want an autograph - even if they already have a bunch of them at home. He doesn't have any bodyguards with him when he comes. He visits friends and relatives, shows up for church and then goes home.

When we encourage kids to drink, we're putting them at risk of dying.
