<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2311482/open_sms">Send us a text</a>In today’s deeply inspiring episode of the Strong By Design podcast, Coach Chris Wilson introduces his friend and ministry leader, John Chalkias, founder of Seeds of Hope Children’s Ministry™. John prerecorded a very special message directly from Zambia.What began in 1996 as a single home for children with HIV/AIDS in Thailand has grown into a world-changing mission — one that’s saving and transforming lives in Zambia today. A 77-acre self-sustaining refuge for African children.Through the Buseko Children’s Home and Grace Academy, John and his team are doing something no one else in the world is doing:Providing love, family, medical care, and education to children affected by HIV/AIDS in a Christ-centered boarding school environment.This is powerful testimony from John about faith in action, the value of every child, and the kind of healing that happens when someone is told, “You matter. You are not forgotten.”John is the true definition of a Kingdom man. He is doing God’s good work half a world away and changing the lives of children forever. Thank you John for all that you do, we love you!  Time Stamps00:00 – Welcome to the Strong By Design podcast!  00:35 – Meet today’s special guest, John Chalkias  03:42 – John on transforming lives at Grace Academy, Zambia  06:30 – What they were able to develop at Grace Academy 07:43 – John highlights unique skills and strengths seen in the kids 10:00 – Why forgiveness is so important for these kids 18:45 – Learn how bonds at Grace Academy last beyond graduation 21:05 – John shares updates on international project expansion 24:09 – How can people support John’s mission, get involved, and learn more 25:55 – Please share, and leave ratings & reviews for the SBD podcast! We need your help!If you haven’t yet left a Rating or Review for the Strong By Design Podcast we would be honored if you would.<a href='https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/strong-by-design-podcast/id1383270948'>Leave a Rating or Review on iTunes</a> Resources:<a href='https://seedsofhopecm.com/'>Seeds of Hope Children’s Ministry</a> Connect with John:<a href='https://www.instagram.com/johnchalkiasamazinglife/'>Instagram</a> Connect with Chris:<a href='https://www.instagram.com/coach_chriswilson/'>Instagram</a><a href="https://growth.criticalbench.com/strongbydesign">https://growth.criticalbench.com/strongbydesign</a> <a href="https://growth.criticalbench.com/strongbydesign">https://growth.criticalbench.com/strongbydesign</a><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2311482/support">Support the show</a>Connect w/ CriticalBench: <ul> <li><a href='http://www.youtube.com/criticalbench'>Youtube</a></li> <li> <a href='http://www.facebook.com/criticalbench'>Facebook</a> </li> <li><a href='http://www.instagram.com/thecriticalbench'>Instagram</a></li> <li><a href='http://www.criticalbench.com/'>CriticalBench.com</a></li> <li><a href='https://www.strongbydesignpodcast.com/'>StrongByDesignPodcast.com</a></li> </ul>
