The fullness of the mission of Christ includes a heart for the poor. This is pretty central, actually, but somehow doesn’t always get a lot of airtime. This isn’t just something we do, but who we are. It’s not just a Christian thing — this is being like Jesus. And even once that heart is developed and the desire is there, the how can be unclear. How do we live the Gospel this way?
In this episode: examining our heart for the poor, and how to live this out in everyday life. How to love like Jesus.

He stands between the Father and our…

Surrender It All
Can we allow ourselves to be exposed before the Lord in prayer? Can we be before the Lord as we are and not hold anything back from ourselves or hide in any way?
