#254 – Dan Haseltine

Tommy Riles and Art Eddy talk about moments when each of their kids surprised them and made them proud parents. They get inspired by this week's guest, lead singer of Jars of Clay and founder of Blood:Water, Dan Haseltine. Blood:Water is an equipping agency that partners with African grassroots organizations to address the water and HIV/AIDS crises. It does this by identifying Africa's hidden heroes and coming alongside their vision for change. Through technical, financial, and organizational support, Blood:Water expands the reach and effectiveness of African civil society organizations and the communities they serve. The guys spoke with Dan about his organization, his music and fatherhood. Dan and his wife have two boys and live in Tennessee.
