Acton Line

In this episode, Dan Churchwell, director of program outreach here at Acton, sits down with James Whitford, executive director of Watered Gardens Ministries, to discuss the challenges of poverty we face here in our communities. Whitford supports the economic principle of subsidiarity. Subsidiarity is a social practice where neighbors help neighbors so the state doesn’t have to intervene. This discourages reliance on the welfare state and avoids government bureaucracy.   Subscribe to our podcasts    Watered Gardens Ministries    The Principle of Subsidiarity   Build Together: Why lived experience is essential for crafting poverty solutions   God doesn't need your good works (but your neighbor does)  Hosted on Acast.
