Homeless But Human

About Homeless But Human

Welcome to Homeless But Human—a podcast that invites you into the streets for real conversations about homelessness, dignity, and what it means to love well. We tackle the common questions and quiet hesitations that keep many from engaging with the poor—and offer practical, relational, and deeply human ways to respond. You’ll hear directly from missionaries, our homeless friends themselves, and those who’ve found that true friendship is the most radical form of charity. What if the person you pass on the corner had one real friend—someone who knew their name, their story, and didn’t walk away? What if that friend was you? If you’ve ever wondered what to say, what to do, or how to really help, you’re in the right place. This isn’t a podcast about quick fixes—it’s about slow, faithful love that changes everything. christinthecity.substack.com (https://christinthecity.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)
