Listen to this sample of Rev. Luis A. Perez, MSW talking about the power of service originally recorded on February 9, 2008. Twenty minute audio samples of NACSW podcasts are available to anyone while the full length podcast is available only to members.

Podcast Summary:

In a day when the word “service” in many circles is shunned and avoided because of the connotations to “servant” or “servitude” – the model and perspective of “service” by Jesus can inform our practice and how we perceive our work, clients, and community. This presentation, developed from the book, The Externally Focused Church , Rusaw,R., Swanson, E. (2004) will challenge attendees to consider the bridge “service” can be in the interest of practitioners as members of the profession, the church, and the community at large.
