Shane Claiborne is an original voice, a creative spirit, in a gathering movement of young people known as the "new monastics." With virtues like simplicity and imagination, they are engaging great contradictions of our culture — beginning with the gap between the churches they were raised in, the needs of the poor, and the "loneliness" they find in our culture's vision of adulthood. |

About the Image
The large number of vacant houses in the Kensington neighborhood of North Philadelphia is an issue for residents living there. If they remain unboarded, the houses become "shooting dens" for drug users, specifically, heroin addicts. Here, Justin, in the basement of The Simple Way community house, paints artwork on a piece of plywood that will board a door of an abandoned house.
