    Caring for the Forgotten in the Most Remote Places on Earth - Aaron Santmyire

    Aaron Santmyire's story is proof that when God calls, He also equips. A nurse practitioner from the "almost heaven" state of West Virginia, Aaron left a comfortable life to spend the last twenty years serving in some of the most remote and overlooked places on earth, in Burkina Faso, Madagascar, and Kenya. He has traveled by helicopter and mobile clinic into villages that had never seen a visitor, cared for patients battling leprosy and rare tropical diseases, and carried both medical care and the love of Jesus to people the world had forgotten. In this powerful episode of the ActsSocial Podcast, Aaron shares what God has taught him through two decades on the mission field, why every act of caring matters, and how each of us, right where we are, can change the trajectory of an uncaring world. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🙏 ACTSSOCIAL 📲 https://getactssocial.app 📸 https://instagram.com/actssocial 📘 https://facebook.com/actssocialofficial 🎵 https://tiktok.com/@actssocialofficial ▶️ https://youtube.com/@actssocialofficial ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 CONNECT WITH AARON SANTMYIRE 🌐 https://aaronsantmyire.com 🌐 https://startcaringtoday.com 📘 https://www.facebook.com/aaronsantmyire1 🎙 The Clarity Podcast (wherever you get podcasts) 📚 Books on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0BBSJBZJV 📖 A Caring Life: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0578298228 📖 A Caring Family (his newest, with participant's guide) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Introduction 2:33 - Why your life matters beyond measure 6:39 - The moment God called him to Africa 9:07 - Arriving in Burkina Faso and the dark night of the soul 22:00 - Treating leprosy in the most remote villages 26:36 - What the poorest of the poor taught him about God 31:01 - If God is good, why does He allow suffering? 36:37 - Christian persecution around the world 46:45 - A word for the "ordinary" person who wants their life to count 50:47 - What it really means to discern God's voice 53:14 - For the person who feels called but is scared of the cost 56:53 - What God is doing in his life and ministry now 1:00:34 - Where to find Aaron, his books, and The Clarity Podcast

    Abandoned By His Parents and Imprisoned In New Zealand - Enoch Tupuono

    Enoch Tupuono grew up in Otara, New Zealand — one of the toughest, most impoverished communities in the country. Abandoned by his father, raised in violence, and consumed by anger, Enoch had every reason to believe nobody cared whether he lived or died. But at 15 years old, he walked into a church with the wrong intentions — and walked out completely transformed by four words he had never truly heard before. "Jesus loves you." What followed was one of the most remarkable journeys of faith, hardship, and redemption you will ever hear. From the streets of Otara to a prison cell — and ultimately into the arms of a God who never once let him go. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⏱ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Introduction 1:46 - Growing up in Otara, New Zealand 5:13 - Given away by his own father 8:32 - The deep longing to be loved and belong 10:22 - Meeting his biological mother and why it brought rage not healing 13:40 - His cousin took him to church at 15 15:43 - "Jesus loves you" — the words that changed everything 21:11 - Sharing Jesus at school and going to his father 25:21 - His father permanently disowned him after salvation 28:29 - Contemplating taking his own life 28:45 - [SPONSOR] Convoy of Hope — ConvoyOfHope.org 30:00 - Did the enemy target him in that season? 32:30 - Walking into prison having already tasted Jesus 33:19 - Faith becoming real in a prison cell 34:53 - A torn Bible with missing pages that did wonders 36:38 - Pursuing God day to day behind bars 39:22 - Discovering the resurrection for the first time 40:29 - What Enoch discovered about who Jesus truly is 43:45 - Miracles in a maximum security prison 54:07 - How God rewired what it means to be a man 1:01:38 - Acts 2:42-47 and the community he always longed for 1:03:27 - Faith and the digital world today 1:08:35 - Knowing you are a child of God — truly wanted 1:11:11 - What would you say to someone who feels unwanted right now? 1:13:13 - What people get wrong about prisoners 1:17:07 - Who is Enoch Tupuono today? 1:18:12 - If your 15-year-old self could see you now 1:19:03 - Where to find Enoch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔗 CONNECT WITH ENOCH TUPUONO 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@enochthepreacher ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🙏 ABOUT ACTSSOCIAL ActsSocial is a faith-first, interest-based, ad-free Christian social media platform built on Acts 2:42-47.
