Coming Soon: The Better Samaritan Podcast
Welcome to The Better Samaritan, a podcast where we’re learning how to do good, better. Hosts Dr. Jamie Aten and Kent Annan will — along with you — explore ways we can more effectively love our neighbors, from everyday acts of kindness to navigating the most complex humanitarian challenges facing the church and society. The name “The Better Samaritan” was inspired by a sermon on the parable of the Good Samaritan from The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who said, “It is not enough to aid the wounded man on the Jericho Road. It is also necessary to work to change the conditions of the Road that made robbery possible.” In our work at the Humanitarian Disaster Institute, we see many well-intentioned Christians set out to help those in need who end up unintentionally causing harm, or at least not doing as much good as they hoped. This is a podcast where you can listen in as we learn from the wisdom and experiences of those who are seeking to be Better Samaritans through their work... so we can all help those with urgent needs in front of us today, and improve the road so others can walk it safely in the future. Join us on The Better Samaritan podcast as we learn from experts on disaster recovery, refugee assistance and resettlement, human trafficking, public health, racial reconciliation, and more.

We think learning how to do good better involves listening to lots of perspectives, with different insights and understanding with us. Sometimes it will make us uncomfortable, sometimes we'll agree, sometimes we won't. We think that's good. We want to listen for correction. Especially in our blind spots.)
