I had requested the meeting based on seeing a video of a talk he gave at the non profit organization ACTS. When I heard the talk I knew that I needed to meet with him. He said a lot of things that I have been dreaming of.

I was excited to hear his perspective on the status of the poor and homeless in Richmond. He has a wealth of knowledge.
It turns out we knew a lot of the same people that I have come into contact with over the last few months. I was especially encouraged that he seemed to confirm the direction that I have been on.
He also suggested that I pull together more people to get involved, so that I don't burn myself out.
Great advice!
Let's pull together and see what God can do through us!
