About this episode
In this episode of Unwritten, a simple act of kindness opens the door to one of the most unforgettable questions ever asked on the streets.
On a cold, gray November morning in Minneapolis, a tired missionary is packing up after a long day of serving the homeless — rejected, exhausted, and ready to go home. Then a voice calls out from behind him:
"Hey… you got any more coffee?"
What begins as a cup of hot coffee turns into a sacred encounter neither of them expected.
In This Episode You’ll Hear:
☕ Why small acts of mercy can change everything
❄️ Life on the streets — addiction, survival, and lost dignity
💔 A mother’s heartbreak over a son she longs to see again
🙏 The Gospel shared in the mess, not after it’s cleaned up
👀 The question that stopped everything: “Does Jesus have eyes like you?”
❤️ What it means to truly see someone — beyond labels, pasts, and masks
This episode is a powerful reminder that Jesus meets us exactly where we are, that no one is beyond hope, and that sometimes the holiest moments happen on cold sidewalks with nothing more than a cup of coffee and a willing heart.
