Simple Civics: Greenville County

Helping the hurting without causing harm: a conversation with Ryan Duerk, Miracle Hill Ministries


Listen Later

This episode is dropping on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving which begins a season of giving and serving. Today, I’ll talk with Ryan Duerk, president and CEO of Miracle Hill Ministries, the largest organization in the Upstate of SC serving people experiencing homlessness. On any given night, over 600 men women and children call a Miracle Hill bed home. Ryan has great insights to share with you on how to best help your fellow community members who are hurting. He also has food for thought on the anecdotes you may have heard or shared about seeing more panhandling in downtown Greenville. Best of all, if you’re listening to this before Thanksgiving, he has a fantastic opportunity for you break bread with your neighbors who don’t have a home this holiday. Ryan has his own podcast called Miracles from the Hill, which you can catch on podcast platforms and YouTube. To learn about Miracle Hill Ministries and the many other service providers for folks experiencing homelessness, take a look at the links below:
