Taxing the Churches and Helping the Homeless
ATHEISTS HELPING THE HOMELESS, WITH JOE ZAMECKI (about 15 minutes into the show).
Joe Zamecki joins us from Austin to give us an update on the Atheists Helping the Homeless (AHH) program. Back in September 2009, Joe and two of his colleagues started a giveaway program for the homeless in Austin, Texas. Atheists Helping the Homeless has now grown to include regular giveways in Austin, Dallas-Ft. Worth … and maybe more.
IS IT TIME TO TAX THE CHURCHES? OR RETHINK PARSONAGE EXEMPTIONS? Insight from Robert Baty, Retired IRS Appeals Officer (About 30 Minutes Into the Show)
A retired IRS Appeals Officer, Robert received a special citation from the Office of Area Director Appeals, for his “commitment to excellence, devotion to duty, and hard work which so significantly contributed to Appeals Area 7 being recognized as the most Outstanding Area in the Nation.”
Cited in Forbes, Baty is a Christian activist who supports the effort to repeal Internal Revenue Code § 107, as presently codified and administered, that allows only "ministers" to receive income tax free income as long as it is spent on housing, Baty argues against young earth “creation science,” demonstrating why it fails in its scientific pretentions and legal challenges. He’s been particularly interested in creationist Kent and Jo Hovinand’s tax cases.

Hi everyone, there is something on our minds tonight parents; it is the state of the world we live in and the overwhelming number of single parent households.

So I ask you single parents, how did you get in the position of being a single parent?

The Homeless Entrepreneur: Jason Mercado, CEO of JUSTCOOKIES
What's Your Recipe for Success? "When people taste Jason Mercado's cookies, they often say the budding entrepreneur should have started selling them a long time ago.
That sentiment is not lost on Mercado, a Salem, N.J. native who baked his first batch of Toll House when he was 11 and never stopped cooking for his family. Before food blogs and Epicurious there was only The Food Network, and in the mid-to-late 1990s, Mercado watched all the time, learning as much as his mother's kitchen would allow. But something happened on the way to cookie paradise. Mercado eschewed culinary school – he got stuck on the more complex math – and followed some friends to Austin, TX, spending 17 years working the restaurant circuit and the party scene, developing a self-described functional drug addiction that saw him spend time in jail and drain his modest finances. It wasn't until Mercado returned north to Philadelphia, where he was laid off from Starbucks, that he was homeless, and at long last, an entrepreneur. Mercado's circuitous path to Philadelphia and business ownership isn't a tale of entrepreneurship's power to overcome homelessness, as tempting as that might be. Rather, it's a testament to Mercado's fortitude and Philadelphia's entrepreneurial ecosystem, which he took advantage of at every opportunity to lift himself up the ladder of redemption. Now Jason is dedicated to teaching other homeless individuals baking skills that can translate into real jobs and real opportunities. You can be a part of Jason's success by ordering cookies from Just Cookies or joining any one of his campaigns to help him raise money for business and marketing expenses.
You can Learn more about Jason AND his cookies by friending him on Facebook! Look for JUST COOKIES!
