Honestly, I can’t say enough good things about ABC’s new show Secret Millionaire. I first heard about the show through my coaching network, as several of the Millionaires are motivational speakers or coaches I’ve followed for a long time. I knew I’d immediately take to this show, since my own experience with tithing has had such a profound effect on my life.
For those who are unfamiliar, Secret Millionaire is a reality TV show that features 10 different Millionaires who go undercover pretending to do a documentary on volunteering in some of the poorest areas of the country. Their task is to find ‘unsung heroes’ in those communities who they’d like to give a portion of their fortune away to.
I know the premise may sound a little hokey, but I quite honestly balled my eyes out on the first episode watching Dani Johnson interact with the Love Kitchen Ladies (Ellen and Helen – sister, age 82). It’s really powerful to see poverty up-close in the US and see the inspiring folks who are out there trying to do something about it. You can’t help but be moved by these beautiful stories!
In the event I haven’t convinced you to watch it yet, do check out this two minute clip of Dani interacting with the Love Kitchen Ladies. Pretty sure that’s what love personified looks like…
The first episode with Dani took place here in Knoxville! 2 of the urban schools I teach at are right around the corner from the Love Kitchen. I am amazed that some of my kids can make it to school despite their home environment and daily challenges :-(
I’m a sap. I just cried watching the youtube commercial… (And I don’t even have pregnancy as an excuse…)
How do you get Hulu to stream for you? Is it because you’re FS?
What a great concept this show looks to be!
OMG Bethany – that is insanely cool! Have you ever volunteered at the love kitchen? It looks so amazing…
Oh yeah, you need to watch this show!
You need a VPN! Get one… :)
