Grace Can Lead Us Home: A Christian Call to End Homelessness with Kevin Nye (revisit)
15.01.2025
41 Minuten
Kevin Nye joins the Amateur Activist to talk about his first book, Grace Can Lead Us Home: A Christian Call to End Homelessness. Kevin is an author, advocate, father, and husband, passionate about using his experience with the unhoused to demystify and humanise an epidemic that often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and numb.  Kevin and Isabela talk through the book — focusing on the importance of language, the reality of homelessness in America, why we simply manage homelessness instead of ending it, and more.  As always, we are so grateful for everyone who listens and shares.

Über diesen Podcast

Hi, I’m Isabela, host of the Amateur Activist Podcast where we talk about big social, political and sometimes theological issues. Join me and my guests as we try to understand topics that sometimes seem too big or too nuanced. We don’t have all the answers and we certainly don’t have the resources to make a big impact but we have our voices. I invite you to join me in these conversations that are sometimes complex and uncomfortable. I’m not qualified nor do I have the capacity to be all in all the time. But I’ll attempt to change the world regardless because I believe we deserve better.
