Sharon Eubank, director of Latter-day Saint Charities, believes that the real power to change lives comes from something much deeper.
In this episode, Sharon shares her experiences working in places devastated by war, poverty, and natural disasters. From standing at the wreckage of the Sri Lanka tsunami to learning from everyday acts of kindness in her own neighborhood, she reveals that the gospel of Jesus Christ carries a greater capacity to transform lives than money ever could.
True humanitarianism begins with listening, respecting agency, and offering dignity.
Whether you’ve wondered how you can make a difference in the world or in your own community, this conversation will help you see that the most powerful humanitarian work begins right where you live.
