Never Chained Talk Show: The Church’s Responsibility

During Episode 109 of the Never Chained Talk Show Nick sits down with an old friend to talk about fulfilling God’s calling on her life. Rebekah Weigel and her husband Josh are known for their multi-award winning short film, Butterfly Circus.

But the world of Hollywood was not the only passion God put on the Weigel’s hearts. Seeing the need within the foster system, Rebekah and Josh began to explore the world of fostering and adopting. Hearing the story of 20 families in the small East Texas town of Possum Trot and their mission to adopt 76 toughest children in the foster system, Rebekah and Josh were inspired to create a short film on this incredible true story of what being the Church truly looks like.

As a part of our 2022 Champions for the Brokenhearted campaign, Nick will interview world experts on a new topic each month. As they share powerful stories from their experiences working on the front lines, they highlight the ways each of us can get involved to empower our families and communities as champions. For the month of March, we are excited to share a special message of hope and encouragement for friends with disabilities.

Gospel Message Part 1 – To the Fosters and Orphans

In this special message to those who are in the foster care system, Nick reminds those who feel alone and unwanted that God is your ultimate Father who has a plan for you. God’s heart is to adopt each of us as his own children. In Psalm 68, verses 5 through 6 it says that he is “A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely in families, he leads out the prisoners with singing.”
