In Episode 92 of Straight Talk, No B.S. with Matthew’s Hope, presented by Imagine Marketing, Pastor Scott and Shelley discuss some real-world examples of Toxic Charity. Hear why doing the wrong thing for the right reason is still the wrong thing.
Most of us have had experiences in public where someone approaches and asks for a few dollars to help them out. Maybe at the red light, maybe walking into a store or maybe waiting for a bus. It can sometimes be difficult to balance empathy and not wanting to look through someone while also being careful not to enable a dangerous habit or possible fall victim to a scam. Pastor Scott and Shelley give advice for how to handle several common scenarios you may face.
Each week, Pastor Scott, Shelley and guests share their experiences from operating a homeless outreach in Florida's Orange and Brevard Counties to raise awareness and tackle some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the homeless crisis in America today.

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
