Serving the Poor: Why Should You Care?
Homeless But Human
We had a very special guest, and dear friend of Christ in the City, on today's episode of Homeless but Human! Father Mark Mary of the CFR’s joins us to discuss: How do we shake indifference toward the poor? We are all in different states of life, how do we discern what our responsibility is to the poor? How do you know you're successful? What has been the most surprising joy? A concrete exercise you can do in 30 minutes amidst the business of your day to day. We are so thankful that Father got to join us and all the support he has given us through the years! This is a public episode.

About Podcast
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.
