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.
The full audio was originally published as the April 2012 Podcast of the Month. Join today to gain access to this and other great resources.

We hope you enjoy what you hear and that you'd consider joining NACSW today.

To Break Every Yoke
Listen to this full length audio (50 minutes) of John Hay, Jr's presentation entitled "To Break Every Yoke" originally recorded on November 1, 2009.
Podcast Summary:
As Horizon House, Inc., a homeless day center in downtown Indianapolis, was rebooted, they were determined to find a better paradigm for their service model than either rescue or typical entitlement-based service provision. Through consultation from colleagues they developed practices at every level of our initiative that reflected a commitment to a deep, ancient sense of hospitality. This dramatically changed their approach, practices and outcomes with homeless neighbors.
Using Isaiah 58 as a resource, this message will focus on recovering the practice of hospitality in social work.
