Am I sinning if I avoid panhandlers on the street corner? What if they are trying to rip me off? Should we give free handouts?
On today’s podcast, Pastor Derek and Pastor Drew tackle the topic of how Christians should handle the homeless. We dig into how the Bible talks of the poor and needy, Jesus’ homelessness, and what kind of wisdom is necessary to navigate a world filled with people in need.
