Fighting windmills, helping restore hope, watching far too much sports, and trying to be a husband, dad, and neighbor. It's a wonderful life.

Jeff Jaynes: Include emergency rent assistance as part of Tulsa's new housing strategy As we invest in new affordable housing units, we ought to set aside a small percentage of these funds for rent assistance, says the Rev. Jeff Jaynes.

If you look closely you'll see doctors, lawyers, students, a rabbi, at least 6 pastors, the former head of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, my lovely wife...& SO many friends. The Mayor Elect came in after this was taken...to a spontaneous standing ovation.

You should join us next year. It's a vibe!

Tonight was another great reminder of why I love my community & my job. Tonight that job was to get 200+ people from across our city & from diverse backgrounds to get to know each other & work together for reconciliation on behalf of the John Hope Franklin Center for Reconciliation. So much fun.

It was right behind us at Restore Hope! Thankful for the bravery and quick response of the Tulsa Fire Department.
