Tyrone Flowers shared his dramatic testimony of growing up in a dysfunctional, dangerous home to unmarried teenage parents who couldn’t raise him. He spent most of his childhood shuttled between foster care, group homes, reformatories and juvenile lockup facilities. At age 17, when he was finally getting his life together, a teammate from Tyrone’s basketball team shot him 3 times, leaving him disabled for life. Tyrone encountered God soon after, learned to forgive his attacker, and now has a ministry called “Higher M-Pact,” which helps rescue & mentors at-risk urban kids in Kansas City, MO.
