The Practical Gospel: How FARM STEW Is Changing Lives Worldwide on 3ABN Today

Joy Kauffman

What does it take to help a family escape hunger, disease, and poverty?

At FARM STEW, we've seen that lasting change begins when people are equipped with practical skills, biblical principles, and the confidence to use both. That's why we're excited to share this special 3ABN Today interview featuring Joy Kauffman, founder of FARM STEW, Deby Andvick, FARM STEW's Volunteer Coordinator, and Dr. Sharon Pitman, Director of FARM STEW's Virtual Learning Community.

In this inspiring conversation, you'll discover how FARM STEW is helping families around the world move from dependency to self-sufficiency through practical, hands-on training. By teaching principles such as farming, nutrition, sanitation, enterprise, and healthy living, FARM STEW equips families to overcome the root causes of extreme poverty and experience the abundant life Jesus promised.

You'll hear powerful stories of transformation from communities where gardens are flourishing, health is improving, incomes are growing, and hope is being restored. These stories demonstrate what happens when practical service and the gospel work together to bring lasting change.

The interview also highlights exciting opportunities for you to become part of this mission. Learn about FARM STEW's Virtual Learning Community, where people from around the world can study the FARM STEW recipe, connect with like-minded learners, and discover practical ways to share these life-changing principles in their own communities.

Whether you're new to FARM STEW or have been part of the journey for years, this conversation will encourage you with what God is doing through ordinary people who are willing to serve. You'll also learn how you can volunteer, advocate, pray, give, or help share the FARM STEW recipe with others.
