And I keep on seeing upcoming young guys or ambitious youth always admiring these lads and saying they are getting high salaries and living nice life. But there is no secret hidden: They simply work hard…

Life on the streets is harsh and the stress of being homeless is clearly taking its toll.  The event of Christ is the only event in human history that promises relocation and centering, meaning and purpose. This promise and its fulfillment evoke passionate and heartfelt praise and thanksgiving, especially for those aware of their own brokenness and the healing which Christ brings into their lives.

Homelessness does not necessarily entail living on the streets. In fact a comparatively…
