Hope After Hurt: A Mission to Break Chains of Abuse, Grief, and Despair in Children

In this heart-stirring episode of Middle-Class Matters, Renae and Brooke sit down with Chester Moore, founder of Kingdom Zoo and the Wild Wishes program. Since 2012, Chester and his wife Lisa have used exotic animals, over 100 species from around the world, to help children facing unthinkable hardships like sex trafficking, terminal illness, bullying, witchcraft, and the loss of parents or siblings. With compassion and faith, Chester shares how God called him to create a place where hurting kids could find hope, healing, and the reminder that they are fearfully and wonderfully made. From animal encounters with sick children to prayers spoken over broken hearts, you’ll hear unforgettable stories of restoration through God’s creation. This is an episode of redemption, community, and the powerful truth that no child is ever forgotten in the eyes of the Creator. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
