In this week's episode of the Be the Bridge Podcast, Reverend Heather Taylor, Managing Director of Bread for the World, joins Tange Johnson, Be the Bridge's Chief Transformation Officer, to discuss Breads's mission to advocate for a world without hunger. She shares insights on the successes and challenges faced in advocacy, the role of government in addressing the crisis, and the need for a multi-faceted approach to solving hunger. Heather and Tange both reflect on their personal experiences with food insecurity and what the faces of hunger looks like.
This conversation was recorded on Thursday, July 3, as the Big, Beautiful Bill was headed to the House of Representatives. So the discussion touches on legislative changes affecting food assistance programs, the global hunger crisis, and the intersection of faith and justice in advocacy work. Listen to the end because even in the midst of everything going on, Heather expresses hope for ending hunger and encourages listeners to get involved.
