Care Journey | Awakening Dignity | Journey With Care Episode on Amazon Music

Description

What does it mean to truly awaken dignity in our communities? In this final episode of our Care Journey series, hosts Johan Heinrichs and Wendi Park engage in a heartfelt conversation with Kathy Boschmann, who shares her inspiring experiences working with those on the margins in downtown areas. Kathy delves into the life-changing moments of simply acknowledging others and treating them as equal image-bearers of God. The discussion explores the barriers of fear and tunnel vision that hinder meaningful connections and touches on the profound impact of humanizing interactions, both with the vulnerable and hardworking social service professionals.
