E1: Smiley Abrams and The Andy Abrams Foundation
Download MP3Welcome to the debut episode of InterVarsity World Changers! We're here to celebrate stories of God's world-changing work through InterVarsity alumni like YOU!
To kick off this new podcast, we're talking with Jason "Smiley" Abrams about the Andy Abrams Foundation. Inspired by his father's ministry to low-income first-time homeowners, Smiley started the Andy Abrams Foundation in an effort to "establish a transformative discipleship house that will serve as a beacon of growth, learning, and community (andyabramsfoundation.org)."
Enjoy Smiley's story about following Jesus into a vision for ministry that's still under construction.
(NOTE: This is the first of 5 episodes being released in January. After the 10th, a new episode will drop on the second Wednesday of each month)
