What is Good: Christian Life Commission Podcast

30 - CLC Visits El Paso Border Ministries

Episode Summary

This episode is a little different — we’re taking you to the border. In October, the CLC hosted a small group of pastors in El Paso for a pilot experience we hope will grow into a series of immersive ministry trips across the state. Our goal was simple: to see, listen, and pray with those serving along the border, and to better understand what God is already doing through ministries like River Ministry, ISAAC, and the Texas Baptist Hunger Offering.
