Common Sense: Do You Feel Guilty About The Homeless? False Guilt and How to Help in Meaningful Ways

from Grants Pass Gospel Rescue Mission Podcast · host Grants Pass Gospel Rescue Mission

When you see a homeless person holding a cardboard sign at an intersection, it doesn't take long for you to experience a deep feeling of guilt. Is that guilt justified?

In this podcast, Director of Resident Services Brian Bouteller explains the concept of false guilt and also asks the question, "Where would Jesus donate?"
