Title: Christ Kitchen
Description: Christ Kitchen is Jan Martinez's compelling true story of how she turned a horrific personal tragedy into a life dedicated to loving and mentoring women on the outskirts of society. Since 1998 Martinez has operated Christ Kitchen, a succesful nonprofit job-training program in Spokane, Washington. Inspired by the mentoring approach Jesus used with the Samaritan woman at the well, Martinez debunks the stereotypes of homelessness and provides practical steps for overcoming poverty, hopelessness, and the cycle of abuse. Christ Kitchen reveals God's heart for the poor and equips us to share his message with low-income women who have never heard the Gospel, set foot in a church, or felt the love of Christ.
