Jesse Lee Peterson founded BOND twenty-nine years ago as of February 2019. He started the nonprofit in order to spread the message of forgiveness to blacks and all people. Men should turn back to God, let go of anger and take responsibility for their lives.
Listen to this amazing interview (above) with a man Marquis who came to BOND over a decade ago, angry and prideful at 19 or 20, wearing earrings, dreadlocks, and a grill in his teeth. He since forgave his divorced mother and father, got married and started a family, is working and providing, and is committed to loving God.
Christian a black man from Canton, Michigan, a listener of The Jesse Lee Peterson Show, started his own business after taking Jesse’s advice! A few years ago, Christian came across Jesse's YouTube videos. Although Christian was an atheist, the principles Jesse talked about piqued his interest. He started listening and calling-in to Jesse’s show. The first time he called in, he could see Jesse was telling the truth, yet had struggles in his personal life.

I have to say that the 2018 year on a scale from 1-10 for me was a 10. A lot has happened and new seasons have begun. One of those things was, because of the huge help of the Academy, I started my own dance program. HUGE step that has opened my eyes to many things.
Derrick and Zara have attended Church at BOND over the last year. Derrick is a regular listener to The Jesse Lee Peterson Show and our other programs. Here's what he and his daughter had to say about their experience with BOND and Jesse:
“Once I heard the message about how children yearn for their father it all made sense”
A young couple began attending Church services at BOND several months ago. After discovering our videos online, they realized they wanted to do things right. They went through counseling with Jesse Lee Peterson, and asked him to officiate their wedding. Here's what they said about their experience.
I'm James Hake, host of The Hake Report, and current producer for The Jesse Lee Peterson Show and Church at BOND here in Los Angeles.
Joel "Friday" Dominick, a student at BOND's Entrepreneur Academy, just opened his own dance academy! Joel, 26, is one of the first young men enrolled in the program. A year ago, Joel was still living at home with his mother when a family member introduced him to Jesse Lee Peterson’s videos and to BOND (Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny). Soon after, Joel started attending BOND's monthly Men's Forums and church services.
A woman with an abusive mother is set free from a lifetime of fear and anger. Laura, 73, discovered "The Jesse Lee Peterson Radio Show" on NewsmaxTV and called in to share her amazing story. Laura said she was physically, emotionally and verbally abused by her mother, and she spent most of her life trying to build a mother-daughter relationship. She blamed herself and lived in fear of her mother and other people.
Listen to this excellent testimonial in the video. Jesse Lee Peterson's producer James takes a call from Ignacio, a 27-year-old man from Mexico, who says he was deported. (James had seen Ignacio in prior months in the YouTube Live Chat during BOND's Church services.) Ignacio said it was tough, but thanks to his deportation, he reconnected with his father. He also encouraged his sisters to do the same. Now working in his home country, he says he’s making Mexico great!
