Summary

Today in episode 28 of Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew, we chat two very special friends of ours, Linda and Steve Znachko, who share the transformative power of ministry in their lives. Several years ago, after seeing a headline about a ‘Baby Doe’ abandoned in a dumpster, Linda was inspired to start He Knows Your Name Ministry, giving children a name in life – and dignity and honor in death. And Steve, who runs his own business, is a pastor with Mission to Ukraine, which provides support for under-resourced families and youth with disabilities, in addition to crisis pregnancy support. Phew, powerful stuff. We’ll let the Znachkos share the rest of their story from here. If you haven’t yet, please rate Couple Things and subscribe to hear more.
