Love is the hallmark of Jesus’ followers, but what does it look like? Join Tyler Staton and Shelbi Shutt as they explore the topic of love — the core motivation of a life of service — featuring conversations with everyday people in the West, testimonials from real-life practitioners, and an interview with luminary Gary Haugen. 

In this episode’s luminary interview, Tyler and Gary discuss how loving the oppressed became a priority for Gary, and how a practice-based spirituality animates his mission to stand against injustice. Gary is the CEO and founder of International Justice Mission — an organization that exists to protect people in poverty from violence and slavery. You can explore more of Gary and the team’s work with International Justice Mission at www.ijm.org and @ijm on social media.
