Homelessness in America has reached a record-breaking high in 2025 — over 771,000 people without shelter, a surge of 18% since 2023. Families with children are being displaced, housing costs are soaring, and federal aid is shrinking. But what does this crisis really reveal about America’s priorities, policies, and spiritual condition?

In this powerful message, Gerald Fears unpacks the “perfect storm” driving homelessness:

• Tariffs raising building costs 15–20%

• Deportation policies removing 15% of construction workers

• DOGE cuts delaying $3.6 billion in housing aid for 9 million people

• A $900 billion defense budget vs. just $70 billion for housing

• Black Americans facing homelessness at 3x the rate of whites

• The end of COVID-era protections, leaving families vulnerable

Meanwhile, Europe invests 1–2% of GDP into social housing, cutting evictions in half, and Finland proves “Housing First” works — keeping homelessness at just 6 per 10,000 people.

This sermon is more than stats. It’s a wake-up call about justice, faith, and misplaced wealth. Because while America spends trillions on tax cuts and war, its own citizens sleep on sidewalks. Gerald challenges us to ask: What kind of nation do we want to be?
