IDOC: FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS TO DISCIPLE OF CHRIST

What does it look like when God takes everything the devil meant for evil and hits the reverse card? Maurice Hall — known as Sir Genius — knows exactly what that looks like.

In this episode of B.A.S.I.C. Conversations, Brother Boston sits down with fellow South Bend brother Maurice Hall, a Christian hip-hop artist, facilitator of The Way Out men's reentry group at Christian Center Church, and host of the All Glory to God Podcast. Maurice lost his father at nine and his mother at fourteen, found himself deep in gang life, incarceration, and searching for truth in all the wrong places — until God stopped him in his tracks and turned his misery into a ministry.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• How losing both parents before age 14 shaped Maurice's rebellion and road to prison
• His Road to Damascus moment and why giving his heart to Christ wasn't enough the first time
• What 11 years and multiple incarcerations taught him about God's timing
• How the Way Out group is pouring back into formerly incarcerated men right here in South Bend
• Why his album IDOC doesn't stand for what you think — and what it actually means
• Sir Genius spitting live bars in the studio 🎤
• The question every B.A.S.I.C. Conversations guest answers: "What would you say to your younger self?"

Maurice's answer will stay with you.
