Interview Episode 006: Faith & Justice W/Chivas Watson| The Medical Evangelist

The purpose of this episode is to bring awareness to the youth on Faith & Justice! As The Medical Evangelist, I believe my calling and podcast is to inspire and motivate healthcare students and other professionals to be bold in their faith in Christ and to tell their story and encourage many to live their best life in Christ.

Faith & Justice episode is an educative episode to encourage and inform anyone faced with adversity with the justice system that there is no Justice without Faith and salvation in Christ.

Our Guest: Chivas Watson is a community leader, organizer, entrepreneur, and educator. He is the founder & director of service agency WorkingGroup512 [WG512], which seeks to improve the delivery of Justice by remaining proximate with community issues & effective in providing resources. Experienced in criminal justice reform, he became an "inmate lawyer" on his way to prison in 2020, working on roughly 515 cases in 378 days served, helping 110 men gain their release, as well as himself before being wrongfully convicted in February of the same year. Operating in Houston, Dallas, Abilene, and San Antonio, TX as well, Chivas serves as a catalyst in projects, initiatives, and startups as Proprietor of United Consulting, based in Austin, TX. He's the End Mass Incarceration reporter for KPFT 90.1 FM's The Prison Show, an Indeed.com Fair Chance Hiring spokesperson, and a City of Austin Net-Zero Hero for the environmental degree to which his work reflects. Also an abolitionist, Chivas advocates for prison reform, re-entry services, and is a staunch supporter of releasing incarcerated individuals.

Mr. Watson is originally from New Orleans, the village that raised him ensured that he knew love amidst the harm, loss, trauma, and pain that also painted his community. His parents and grandmother sacrificed a lot for him to gain a quality education, yet in undergrad he chose to rebel from their sure ways. Fornication, irresponsibility, and poverty marked the years thereafter, until God revealed his word to him in 2011. He started his own business at 25, went to prison in 2019 which renewed a lease on life, and he started his own nonprofit upon release in 2020. He's been able to transfer a life of community involvement into a ministry that creates solutions for community members. God's mercies have sustained him, but the truth that is Christ empowers him, to be a soldier in God's army and serve his people as his life's mission.
