This week, you’ll hear Ave Ibrahim, the director of public relations at Agora University, share his thoughts on hidden services. He shares different examples, from serving newcomers to actually cleaning toilets. He also emphasizes that unseen services can help us look inward, refocus on our motivation for service, and grow in humility. He reminds us that our reward will come from our Father in heaven, who sees what we do in secret (Matthew 6:4).

Throughout the episode, Ave draws ideas from his article “Too Many Windows and Not Enough Mirrors,” written for Agora University. (https://avei.medium.com/too-many-windows-and-not-enough-mirrors-1e6d6339096a)
