Somebody Cares is about the incredible work of God and how we can participate in His grand design. This is a story of what God does when ordinary people like you and me choose to lay down their own agendas and take God at His Word. It’s a call to action from a God of action through a man of love. Multitudes are in the valley of decision. They need to see Christ’s compassion lived out before them through His Church. The people need to feel His love and acceptance. They need you.

The message of Somebody Cares is the rallying cry of the Holy Spirit to the Bride of Christ today.

If so, hear what the Spirit says to the Churches!
