Fox News
Tuesday, January 7, 2025 10:51 AM GMT

Common sense lets us know where we stand, the reality that we face. It is only when we are honest with ourselves that we can make true and meaningful progress.

Pastor Corey Brooks, known as the "Rooftop Pastor," is the founder and Senior Pastor of New Beginnings Church of Chicago and the CEO of Project H.O.O.D.
