In today’s conversation, I'm joined by my friend Eagle Spits from Nottingham, England. As a teenager, Eagle discovered his passion for punk rock. In 2009, he had a profound experience with Jesus. Inspired by the writings and stories of Dorothy Day of providing radical Christian hospitality towards the poor, Eagle began organizing punk shows in 2010 under the banner of Punk 4 The Homeless to support street children.
Today, several Punk 4 The Homeless gigs are regularly held across the UK punk scene, benefiting an orphanage a family started in Sierra Leone in response to the Ebola epidemic of 2014. You might recall we spoke with that family back in Season 3, Episode 8 of this podcast.
I hope you enjoy our conversation as Eagle shares his love for punk rock, his faith journey, and the inspiring story behind Punk 4 The Homeless.
