121 - Let Us Not Love In Word or Talk But in Deed and in Truth

"But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.” – 1 John 3:17Kicking things off with some dialogue surrounding many Christians' tendency to be bashful about owning anything fancy; but this extended episode runs deep.  We’re having three different conversations with all three introducing listeners to people and organizations who not only believe the Gospel, but are set on living it out—“in deed and in truth." At the top of the episode, Joey and Lynne discuss with Roy and Tomelex her recent Seacoast Mission trip to Pakistan and then we'll hear from these two other organizations who are laboring out of love for their fellowman:Global Water Center / Website / Give / Instagram  "Equipping leaders to solve the global water crisis together." Carry 117 / Website / Give / Instagram "WE hire at-risk women in Korah, Ethiopia, train them to measure, cut, and sew, and provide them with a job. Each month, they earn a paycheck, which in turn allows them to provide for themselves and their families. They can send their own kids to school, feed their family, and save for the future they dream of."Seacoast Church Missions / Website / Give"We are fighting poverty, seeking justice, and bringing hope by serving the vulnerable, forgotten and under-served.
