Recent changes in government funding for international aid, coupled with public criticism of some faith-based organizations, have raised important questions. What responsibility does the government have in saving lives, especially those of non-citizens? Is it acceptable for Christian groups to receive government funding to further the public good?

Michael Cerna, CEO of Accord Network, joins Today’s Conversation podcast, hosted by NAE President Walter Kim, to delve into these issues and more. In this episode, they also discuss:

  • How the foreign aid freeze impacts Christian nonprofits that do not receive federal funding;
  • What responsibilities governments have in caring for vulnerable people and enacting justice;
  • Examples of faith and government collaboration in the Bible; and
  • How Jesus’ perseverance in the face of adversity inspires hope.
