The hours



Many hours in this building trying to make photo after photo to fill the space led to a couple sucesses. The woman above was painting during a contemporary worship service on Sunday morning. The man below sits behind a bar in the same room the Friday before. This church in downtown Chattanooga hosts a youth outreach mission on the weekends, letting local bands perform and creating a safe space for the under-18 crowd (they only serve water and sodas). But two shootings only a month apart took place in the parking lots behind the building. The mayor is preparing to shut down the church, so we spent a lot of time there over the course of a week to see what was really happening within its walls.
