“Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction and to keep himself unspotted from the world.” If this is true, why aren’t more Christians pursuing the care of orphans sacrificially, obediently, and practically? We want to discuss this issue while providing practical ways for the Church to be involved. If you’re interested in caring for orphans we hope you’ll listen along and be moved to take action. If you’re already caring for orphans, we hope this will be an encouragement and opportunity for you to share your needs. Hosts Matt and Helen Belleville are currently living in Malaysia and in the process of adopting twin orphans. They’re pursuing other ways to help orphans in their community.

Way too much distraction
Listened to one message and the sound is poor, the baby in the background, and the background music was way too much for me.
