In this episode of The Shine Brightly Podcast, Heather talks with Jamie Sanchez, the owner of The Drip Café in Denver, CO. Jamie shares how his café, part of the "Project Revive" initiative to support the homeless, has faced relentless attacks from a group opposed to its Christian values. Despite the vandalism and harassment, Jamie stays committed to his mission, drawing strength from his faith in God.
“A message from Jamie Sanchez. ‘I am calling on the Body of Christ to support us during this time of attack by this anti-Christian group. For over 10 years, my team and I have been serving the homleless community in Denver out of the love we have felt from Christ. The Drip Cafe is meant to be a huge blessing for those struggling with homelessness. The communist group says they won't stop until we close. I am saying I will never back down from the Holy Scriptures of God our Creator’.”

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars?
