Episode description

Christians once played a key role in caring for American children in crisis. But as the government’s involvement in social services grew, Christians’ participation shrank. Now that state and federal agencies have the primary responsibility for meeting the needs of children without families, how can the church answer the call set out in James 1:27—to care for widows and orphans in their distress?


North Korea is one of the most secretive, closed-off countries in the world, but World Help has a network of trusted partners there with 20+ years of experience smuggling Bibles and other aid to believers. These partners use donations to print, ship, and secretly distribute Bibles as well as food to people who have been desperately praying for help. And since North Koreans share their Bibles with trusted family and friends, each copy impacts around five people. Click here to learn more and donate.
