Becci and Andrew sit down with Grant to unpack the parable of the rich man and Lazarus from Luke 16, and discover why Lazarus is the only person Jesus names by name in any of his parables. Grant shares what this story taught him about noticing the person right in front of him, drawing on his years of experience in sport chaplaincy and life in Auckland. This conversation explores what it means to live out the ministry of presence rather than always rushing to fix things.

This World Humanitarian Day, Andrew Urquhart sits down with Stephen Court, Director of International Partnerships for World Vision New Zealand, to talk about nearly 20 years spent serving in some of the world's hardest places. Stephen shares his journey from a childhood in Nauru to almost six years living in Ethiopia with his young family, through riots, kidnapping, and civil war, and reflects on what keeps him going when he sees the best and worst of humanity every day. He talks candidly about holy anger, the 13 year old girl who changed how he sees hope, and how Kiwis can respond as global humanitarian funding continues to fall.
