Christians express their faith in many ways – including acts of mercy in times of tragedy, like the recent Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, and other disasters. Today’s guests, Rev. Ross Johnson, director of LCMS Disaster Response, and Rev. Michael Meyer, manager of LCMS Disaster Response, talk about why Christians do these acts of mercy for all people, why it’s a deeply ingrained part of Christian theology, and how we can continue to help those in need.
