Champions for the Poor with Leon Byrd

In "Champions for the Poor with Leon Byrd," he explores how God calls us to serve those less fortunate. Pastor Leon has been faithfully serving the homeless in downtown Dallas, Texas, for 27 years. The poverty rate in the U.S is about 11.6%—that’s about 37.9 million people living in poverty in our own country, of which nearly half a million are homeless. The epidemic of poverty is one that can’t be ignored, and in this open discussion you’ll discover some practical ways for you and your family to engage these hurting communities, right where you are.
