  • God at Work Through His People!

    This is consistently an outstanding podcast because the focus is on God and what He does through those who follow Him! I am blown away at the breadth of the Samaritan’s Purse ministry. Everything is done in the name of Jesus. The Gospel is at the center of each ministry within this organization.
