Inhaltsangabe

A four-session interactive Bible study, based on the documentary Americans with No Address, that examines the biblical response to people experiencing homelessness. <p/> Homelessness is not an "issue"; it's an opportunity for the church to love our neighbors. In this four-session interactive Bible study, we examine what Scripture has to say on the topic. A companion to the documentary Americans with No Address and the full-length theatrical movie No Address (starring Ashanti, William Baldwin, Beverly D'Angelo, and Xander Berkeley), this study teaches participants:

• The root causes of different types of homelessness.
• How to engage rather than enable.
• The importance of collaboration among existing agencies.
• How to mobilize their church to follow Jesus' call to serve.

Each session includes:

• Facts, true stories, and background about the people who experience homelessness in America.
• QR code for quick link to online videos.
• Discussion questions for churches and small groups.
• Perspective from the Bible.
• "Go and Do" action steps.
• Ideas for further resources.
• Prayer prompts and reflection questions.

The government can't solve homelessness alone. The nonprofit sector can't solve it alone. But neighbors loving neighbors, working together, can make a difference for the people who are experiencing homelessness in America. No Address equips Christians to lead the way. <p/> This interactive study guide includes a free QR code and URL to access all nine videos, plus additional content for engaging study as a group or on your own.
