Tuesday Aug 24, 2021
The recent turmoil in Afghanistan has brought a great deal of attention and concern. Our primary concern is for the people there who are suffering persecution and death under the hands of the Taliban as they take over that country. Another group of people that also deserve our prayers, concern, and care are the men and women who served in the Armed Forces for the last two decades in Afghanistan. Jeremy Stalnecker, Executive Director of the Mighty Oaks Foundation, joins me today to talk about some of the soul care needs of our veterans and military members who are asking significant questions in the midst of this crisis. Jeremy also shares about some special efforts that have begun by a coalition of NGO’s including Mighty Oaks to help get U.S. citizens and those Afghans who helped allied forces out of Afghanistan. You can support these efforts with prayer and financial donations. Find out more at saveourallies.org.

Soul Care for Missionaries
Saturday Jul 24, 2021
Saturday Jul 24, 2021
In this episode of 15:14 we are joined by BCC Council Member Dr. Andrew Rogers who serves as the Executive Director for Overseas Instruction in Counseling (OIC) and Sara Shannon the OIC Missionary Soul Care Coordinator. They discuss the need missionaries have for soul care in their own lives. This aspect of support to missionaries is often overlooked and we want that to change. There are many ways this care can be provided: through sending churches, through agency member care, or through individual biblical counselors connecting with missionaries. OIC is helping to coordinate a network of biblical counselors who donate time to provide soul care to missionaries overseas. We encourage you to prayerfully consider joining this network.
