  Homeless + Immigrants: Assumptions in the Church

  Jul 9, 202651 min

  This month on Anchor + Waves, Jacque and Stacy welcome Micah Harrison from the Mission Hills Life Center for a conversation about the assumptions we often have about our homeless and immigrant population. Together, they unpack the way fear, busyness, and basic misunderstanding can keep us from truly seeing people as human beings made in the image of God. Through honest stories and practical insight, Micah shares what he’s learned from walking alongside people experiencing homelessness and immigrant families navigating life in a new culture, including his own experience returning from years in Indonesia. The conversation is eye-opening, compassionate, and full of simple ways we can slow down, build relationships, and love people more intentionally. If you’ve ever wondered how to practically move beyond empathy into meaningful connection, this episode is for you. 👉 Subscribe so you don't miss any episodes. 👉 Listen now and be encouraged to trust God as we navigate the calm and the storms that life brings. 🎧 Also available on Spotify & Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. 📺 Check us out on YouTube As always, shoot us your questions at women@missionhills.org and enjoy today's episode. ============================= Anchor + Waves: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Jacque Carlson, Stacy Ludwig 🎉 SPECIAL GUESTS:: Micah Harrison 🎥 VIDEO + SEO DIRECTORS:: Zac Anderson, Colin McFarland 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved
