284. From Trauma to Purpose with Bobby "Pops" Lopez With Passion SoCal

On today’s episode of You Can Mentor, we’re joined by special guest Bobby Lopez from Passion SoCal, who shares his heart for mentoring youth in Los Angeles communities impacted by drugs, gangs, and homelessness. Bobby reflects on moments from his own life and how God used mentors to shape his journey. This encouraging conversation reminds mentors that even small acts of presence and love can spark light and hope through Jesus in the lives of the kids they serve.
