In this episode of This Ain't It, we talk about hunger, hypocrisy, and what happens when politics collides with basic human need. With SNAP benefits set to be slashed during the government shutdown, we dig into what that really means for families, grocery stores, and local economies and why Christians can't ignore the call to "feed the poor," no qualifiers attached. From Bible verses in Exodus and Matthew to the hard math of minimum wage and food insecurity, we connect the dots between faith, policy, and the myth that churches alone can shoulder the nation's hunger crisis. We also talk food deserts, Walmart wages, and practical ways you can help. Bless your heart, it's about time we put compassion back on the menu.   Show Notes: Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's brief on SNAP work requirements: https://stateofchildhoodobesity.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/rwjf473381.pdf John Oliver on SNAP: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/3muIqABbrY8 John Oliver on the Big Beautiful Bill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjFL-cBcjKc Food Bank Database: https://whyhunger.org/find-food/#hotline
