In today’s episode of “Hope Transforms” Nashville icon Papa Joe Bradford shares his personal story and insights into the racial challenges facing our nation today. From his time growing up in a small town in Tennessee during the early years of integration to his work today serving the people in Nashville’s public housing communities, Papa Joe has well-earned wisdom and important context for us all. 

For more than 20 years, Papa Joe Bradford and his wife Denise have tirelessly served the people of Nashville, Tennessee. Their not-for-profit organization “Elijah’s Heart” is focused on showing love and bringing aid to underprivileged children and their families. They provide food to hundreds of inner city families and help bring together all parts of the community, all races, and people of all backgrounds. His life was turned into the move “Unconditional” and he is the author of the book “A Walk of Love.”
