Have you driven past someone standing at an intersection with a sign that reads homeless, anything helps? Did you want to help but just didnt know what to do or where to start?
In Fifty Practical Ways You Can Help the Homeless, author Travis Sharpe answers those questions. He presents fifty practical ways you can help someone who is experiencing homelessness. These insightful tips offer a valuable guide for those who want to reach out for the first time or the person who desires to take their assistance for someone a little further.
It focuses on helping individuals with tangible needs like food, water, and shelter as well as other needs like finding a job or learning how to use technological and other community resources. But Sharpe also gives a reminder that homeless individuals also need a helping hand of the heart, soul, and mind, and sharing the gospel message of Christ can also buttress their efforts to find stability.
Fifty Practical Ways You Can Help the Homeless puts Sharpes many years of experience into actionable and practical steps you can use now to be a blessing to someone in need.
Throughout his four years of college, he led a homeless ministry that grew each year. After his marriage to April in 1998, they applied and were accepted as missionaries with Baptist Missions to Forgotten Peoples, Inc. In 2001 they began the Garden City Rescue Mission in Augusta, Georgia, and led that ministry until they sensed another calling in 2009.
With a desire to minister to homeless and displaced persons on a global scale, Travis began Unsheltered International in 2011. Under his leadership, this new ministry now reaches needy people in more than a dozen states. In 2015 the first international ministry was started in the Philippines. Unsheltered International Philippines has a staff that ministers daily to street children and homeless families.
Travis holds a master's degree in pastoral theology from Victory Baptist College and a doctorate degree in pastoral counseling from Andersonville Theological Seminary. He travels extensively throughout the US and foreign countries, speaking in missions, conferences, and revivals. He regularly answers the call to assist churches and missionaries who want to learn more about homeless ministry.
For the Sharpes, ministry is a family affair. His two children, Hunter and Sarah, are very much involved in the daily work with their mom and dad. As a family, the Sharpes live overseas several months each year. Home base is a small farm in Logan, Alabama. They are members of Temple Baptist Church in Cullman, Alabama.
When he is not on the mission field, Travis enjoys bass fishing, especially in rivers and creeks. Give him a kayak and a fishing pole, and he might disappear for several days!
