Nashville, TN (November 30, 2009)-- In the spirit of giving, Country star Bryan White has shared hisGivStory on GivMusic's Podcast about his passion for the Christian child advocacy ministry known asCompassion International. To further support Compassion, White, as well as many other country and pop artists, will perform on December 2 at Mercy Lounge, in Nashville, TN as part of Compassion's Benefit for the Global Food Crisis.
"We have constant defining moments throughout our life where we can either walk away or respond. For me, one of the defining moments, as far as figuring out what I really wanted to do in life, was make an impact apart from the nation I lived in," White explains. "I had always dreamed of looking beyond here as well and I was fortunate enough to go on a trip to Ecuador a couple of years ago with Spence, my friend, with Compassion. That is really what changed my life and made me 100% get involved with Compassion."
As White explains in his GivStory Podcast, a few years back he and his wife, Erika, sponsored a little girl from Ecuador in the city of Otavalo. On their trip with Compassion International they were able were able to get a first hand look into life of their sponsored little girl. White explains the experience as having a "profound impact" on his life. To hear more of White's GivStory click HERE.
