From NIMBY to YIGBY: A Conversation with Victor Cyrus-Franklin and Carlton Rhoden

  • Summary

  • We welcome to the podcast two excellent pastors from Los Angeles: the Rev. Carlton Rhoden, who is a long-time community organizer and pastor of Westminster Presbyterian; and the Rev. Victor Cyrus-Franklin, newly appointed senior pastor of Holman United Methodist Church.

    In part one of our conversation, we discuss how these two leaders and their congregations came to see affordable housing as a ministry opportunity, moving the needle from NIMBY (“Not in my backyard”) syndrome to YIGBY: “Yes in God's backyard”.
