Sean Sallis, Youth Dynamics, Moses Lake, WA

The burden our family has for the students and young adults in Moses Lake will continue as we adventure with youth through the ministry of Youth Dynamics in the PNW!

As a teenager, I faced challenges at home that left me looking for answers in the chaos. I was invited to a youth group at First Baptist Church of Moses Lake by a group of friends and I was very nervous about attending. It was through those relationships that I found true community. I trusted Jesus Christ at the age of 14 and soon came on the student leadership team at Youth Dynamics under the leadership of Mark Evans in 1996. Youth Dynamics played a huge role in my walk with Jesus, along with my struggles. This ministry has always held a special place in my heart.

​Gone but never forgotten. RIP Arnold Fritz, Manuel Vela, Jr., and Mrs. Leona Caires. Thank you Mr. Jon Lane for your bravery.

Guest 2

Sierra Hartman - Grit City Magazine (Tacoma, WA)

Grit City Magazine was founded on the notion that Tacoma has good stories to tell. We explore the places that define it, pay homage to the history that built it, and celebrate the people who make it what it is today. This is a city of makers and craftsmen, artists and philosophers, natives and newcomers, dreamers and doers, and above all, grit.

Sierra wrote a great piece on the short and long story of the nickname "Grit City". What some meant as a derogatory term, the city embraced and has made something positive. We also discuss the grit of the magazine, which has fully embraced print in the age when most media outlets are reducing their products to online only.

Jack (John) Cameron - Tacoma Stories (Tacoma, WA)

Jack has spent years chronicling the homicides that occur in Tacoma. He also write about local businesses and books that take place in and around Tacoma. "Corruption and crime have been a part of Tacoma since its inception. There have been times when these dark elements seem to have consumed the city, but each time, Tacoma manages to come out of it and revitalize itself."

tacomastories.com

Jack was interviewed by Tacoma Daily Index and had this to say about his work, "I'm interested in what makes people desperate and what causes these violent actions," says Tacoma resident Jack Cameron who writes about homicide victims online. "More importantly, and specifically when it comes to these homicide victims, these are people who didn't want to go. It's different than a suicide. It's different than somebody dying of old age or something. Somebody else took these people out, and they didn't want to go. I think their story deserves to be told as to who they were and what happened."

Unfortunately the trend for local homicides is going up, Jack shares that in 2020 there were 30-32 (he is having trouble verifying those additional two), which is more than 2016 and 2017 combined. Many of the families that he writes about have set up GoFundMe accounts to help with burial fees, he keeps these as up to date as possible on his Tacoma Stories Facebook page. 

On the lighter side we discuss his book, Ruin Your Life, "A self help book for hooligans."
