Matt Wilson from Compassion International joins Dale on today’s 95Podcast to update us on some new initiatives from Compassion. They have also signed on to sponsor the Soul Care Essentials Conference for another year. Although Compassion is widely known for its work with sponsoring children, it also has a strong commitment to supporting the local church.
Compassion believes that a healthy leader can help develop a healthy ministry. This is one of the reasons they promote soul care health for pastors and staffers.
