Hey everyone,
We relaunched our podcast and gave it a new name. Check out our first episode below.
LBW Team
This past week, we got an opportunity of designing a day of professional development for 30 Chick-Fil-A engineers to understand homelessness and poverty in our world.
We were honored to serve with an organization like Chick-Fil-A and these engineers and through our Dignity Museum.
It means so much to teach, educate, and mobilize people from all walks of life to “see” and love those on the margins of society.
Thanks Chick-Fil-A!

Last week’s launch of “I See You: How Love Opens Our Eyes to Invisible People” at Barnes & Noble was a huge success!
Here are a few pics of the Launch Day book-signing event, it was a great time!
Thank you to those of you who pre-ordered and supported our story. We’re excited about teaching people what it means to see dignity in others.
You can still purchase your own copy here!

We are looking forward to hosting a team from Chick-fil-A Corporate in a few weeks!
We were asked by Chick-fil-A to lead a group of 30 engineers through a service learning day to learn more about poverty, and the team will experience a full day of serving opportunities and education.
Our hope for this time is that each individual will walk away with more empathy, and also to be in close proximity with our community.
We’re very excited about this Serve Day, as this jumpstarts what we’re going to spend more of 2020 doing in terms of empowering those in leadership positions.
Stay tuned!

“How do we become people who not only accept responsibility for the destitute but also shift our focus from being self-centered to other-centered?” (Terence Lester)
We are one day away from launching the book, “I See You: How Love Opens Our Eyes To Invisible People.” It’s already been spotted around the country in some Barnes & Noble stores.
There is still time to pre-order and support our message of seeing those who are impoverished as God sees.
There is still time to pre-order here!
LBW Team
We exist to raise awareness of societal needs through technology and storytelling and mobilize people to take part in it. We exist to make known the stories that are experienced but never heard about. We are dreamers of solutions!

A Personal Request
Hey guys, this is Terence!
As you know, I’ve been leading LBW in the trenches for years.
In five years, we have worked to assist over 300 people to transition out of homelessness. I can honestly say that I have learned a lot and it has not been easy.
Last year, I was approached by a publisher, InterVarsity Press, to write about my experiences while leading this organization and things I’ve observed in helping people to transition out of poverty and homelessness.
Immediately, I started writing a book called I See You: How Love Opens Our Eyes To Invisible People and now I’m exactly 48 days from releasing it into the world.
The book itself will be used to advance the work we do with Love Beyond Walls and many proceeds from it will go back to Love Beyond Walls.
It would be my honor if a few of you would join the book launch team to help spread the word. If you join, we will send you an advanced digital copy of the book and you’ll get a chance to become an early reader.
I hope you will join me in helping us spread the word about what it means to take LBW and see people and love them fully.
You can sign up HERE and fill out the form to get the advanced digital copy.
