MENGENAI EPISOD INI
Kia Ora Twos and Threes,
In this episode, we had the wonderful privilege of sitting down to chat with the mighty AJ Hendry: AJ is a former Laidlaw Bachelor of Theology graduate, Husband to Summer Hendry, Father to Wesley, Martin, Lewis and proud ‘Westie’ in the Auckland Context.
• He is a passionate, pragmatic faith-motivated advocate of a variety of Social Justice Causes causes including Youth Wellbeing, Homelessness and Mental Health.
• His interests also intersect with matters of Politics, Christian culture, and best practice for Youth Work. His roles (past/present) include working for Manaki Rangtahi, Lifewise Youth Housing Leader, Massey Community Trust Board member which includes recent work as Collaborator on the ‘Safety Net Project’.
• He has spoken publically in a range of settings - Media, Politics, Radio, Council, Churches, TV, Podcasts, Community Gatherings, ( via the likes of TVNZ, the AM Show, Newstalk ZB, RNZ, and various West Auckland settings) and writes regularly via his letterheads “When Lambs are Silent” & more recently “Letters from the Revolution.”
• Articles from these sites have been shared by the NZ Herald, Newsroom and Stuff on a national level.
In all of these settings, the man presents humbly and accessibly but with evident zeal to achieve better than before for our rangatahi (the younger generation) in Aotearoa. His discipline of work and self directed study has seen him emerge with a valued contrasting voice on matters which have been typically very polarized. We hope you are blessed by the conversation
Sola Deo Gloria,
- J. C. T. & C.
