His "preemptive love" theory of change has taken him and the HUMANITE founders to the frontlines of revolution and war in Fallujah, Mosul, Damascus, Aleppo, Cairo, Khartoum, and beyond to serve those in need and meet with top leaders, warlords, and terrorists about the rise and fall of peace. Jeremy's work has been covered by CNN, the BBC, Al-Jazeerah, The New York Times, and The Washington Post.From Pres. Jimmy Carter's Human Rights Defenders Forum, to the International Peace Conference for the Korean Peninsula, to the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates, Jeremy has had the honor of sharing the stage with changemakers from across the globe.Love Anyway, Jeremy's second book, was released to popular acclaim in 2019, with NYT-bestselling authors calling it "beautifully written", "a must-read", and "deeply subversive."Jeremy lives in Iraq with his wife Jessica and their children, Emma and Micah.

Last week, we aired an interview with Jeremy Courtney, who along with his wife Jessica, founded the charitable organization Preemptive Love. We had a lot to say about the controversy surrounding the Courtney's dismissal from the charity that they had spent well over a decade building, but we thought it best to let people hear from Jeremy, first. This week, we got together with Jeremiah to discuss the accusations made against them, the tone and inflection of the articles written by two former employees, the preemptive critiques of Humanite (a new project that has only just launched and is already under assault), and final thoughts on what this mess says about the people involved, both directly and indirectly. This conversation might ruffle some feathers, but it needs to be had. The callous, enthusiastic way in which we discard imperfect people who have done so much good is infuriating. The Courtneys aren't perfect, but they've been in the field helping save lives and build communities for a long time. We think they deserved better than they got. Here are the articles we discuss: “Preemptive Love: What Happens When a Charity Runs More Like a Cult” by Ben Irwin “Jeremy and Jessica Courtney's misconduct at Preemptive Love, documented” by Ben Irwin “A Donor's Guide to Preemptive Love's Financial Statements” by Ben Irwin “What you should know about Humanite, Jeremy and Jessica Courtney's new organization” by Ben Irwin “An Open Letter to Preemptive Love” by Courtney Christenson The Board of Directors' Statements & Timeline of Events
This week, we got the opportunity to sit down with humanitarian and author, Jeremy Courtney, who comes to you from his home in northern Iraq! In 2008, Jeremy and his wife Jessica founded an incredible organization called Preemptive Love, who's mission includes providing aid in the form of food, shelter, and medical care to people caught in the midst of global conflict, as well as launching local businesses in war-torn parts of the world to bring jobs, revenue, and stability back to their communities. For over a decade, Jeremy and Jessica worked side-by-side with local partners all over the Middle East, and Preemptive Love grew to become the large, impactful organization that it is today. In late 2021, several former employees voiced complaints and concerns about the Courtney's leadership. The organization willingly subjected themselves to a third-party investigation by Guidepost Solutions hoping to better understand the problems and how to address them. However, a couple of ex-employees went public with their grievances. Shortly thereafter, the board of directors published a statement saying that Jeremy and Jessica Courtney would not be returning to Preemptive Love. After months of radio silence, the Courtneys announced that they were partnering with many of their longtime friends and fellow humanitarians to form a new organization called Humanite Peace Collective. That's obviously the abridged version of the story, but hopefully it gives some context… This is the first time Jeremy has spoken publicly since leaving Preemptive Love, and we were as anxious as anyone to hear his thoughts on what happened. Whether or not you followed the Courtneys or Preemptive Love over the years, I think you'll find Jeremy's story fascinating. We encourage you to check out Humanite at www.humanite.org, and if you'd like to join the conversation, you'll find a link to the official Growing Up Christian Discord server in our Instagram bio, @growingupchristianpodcast!

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the Syrian civil war–a conflict which has already killed and wounded 12,000 children. So we asked Jeremy Courtney, whose organization Pre-emptive Love works with Syrian refugees, to get raw with the Better Samaritan about journeying from privilege into ministry, and back again... a constant grapple between pride and service. Preemptive Love is a global coalition of peacemakers confronting fear with acts of love. The coalition performs emergency relief for families victimized by ISIS, lifesaving heart surgeries for children, peacemaking in conflict-zones, empowering grants for small business owners, education for at-risk children, and provides counsel to policymakers in D.C., London, Baghdad and beyond. Episode Highlights from Jeremy: "[Pre-emptive Love is]...Undercutting the narrative of us vs. them, rich vs. poor. If you're getting shot at, I'm getting shot at." "When your economics go down, you become a lot more vulnerable to violence spreading through your community." "If you feel like this world is yours by default… we can make the world a lot safer by lowering our fists, by choosing postures that get our fists down. By seeking to live in an open posture of vulnerability and welcome. It's a discipline and practice that we're trying to undercut generations of default programming. But we do have to give it up, if our goal is to make the road safer." RESOURCES: Join the work of Pre-emptive Love "On Being a Good Neighbor", sermon draft by the Rev.

HOSTFollow Jesse Oxford, Founder and Creative Director of OX Creative@jesseoxford@oxcreateswww.oxcreates.comGUESTFollow Jeremy Courtney@thejcourt@preemptivelove INTRO:Jesse Oxford: I first met Jeremy while I was doing a documentary project in Northern Iraq in 2017. We were introduced through a mutual friend who told me about the great work his organization Preemptive Love was doing on the front lines, first in heart surgery after the insurgency, and then deterring the refugee crisis due to ISIS. Jeremy and his family have lived in Iraq through it all. One memory that stands out in my mind is driving to drop off his young son at Tae Kwon Do one afternoon, by himself. This runs counter to the narrative that many Westerners have come to imagine when they think of daily life in Iraq.Preemptive Love is an organization that exists to end war. Jeremy has learned the power of stories to help shape fears and friendships that can be formed between different groups, both overseas, and even here in the US. So I wanted to ask Jeremy if stories are currencies, do all stories carry the same weight and value as we work to create good in the world?QUOT-ABLESJeremy Courtney: I like the notion that stories are the currency of human relationships, because it's how we make meaning of whatever, everything. Everything comes down to quote unquote, "the story we tell ourselves."JC: How we talk about Muslims in America has a profound impact on how we treat Muslims with our bombs and bullets and troops and aid and policies in a place like Iraq or Syria. But, to go even farther, how we talk about black and brown people in America, how we talk about anyone, has a profound impact on what we do in other parts of the world as well. And so we're in this together, and the question that remains is, are we going to rise together or are we going to drag each other all down to the bottom together?JC: We're not permanently a jobs organization, though we do those things. We're primarily an organization that exists to end war. And to do that, we're going to have to do some introspectionJO: The word story has become so often used that I think we often forget that a story is not a format. Not all books are stories, and not all films are stories either. Stories can be read, heard, seen, and experienced. And within each of those verticals, there are hundreds of different durations that stories can be told in. You can read a story as a novel, as a short story, an article, a caption, or a tweet. A tweet is a form of story too. And these days I think that one of the most valued formats of stories in the world, for better or worse, is digital storytelling.JC: How we talk about Muslims in America has a profound impact on how we treat Muslims with our bombs and bullets and troops and aid and policies in a place like Iraq or Syria. But, to go even farther, how we talk about black and brown people in America, how we talk about anyone, has a profound impact on what we do in other parts of the world as well. And so we're in this together, and the question that remains is, are we going to rise together or are we going to drag each other all down to the bottom together?JO: What stories do you feel like we're over-telling? Or what stories are you sick of hearing about?Jeremy Courtney: Well, I'll say simple stories.JO: What would make a story like simple in your mind, as you use the word?JC : This is the good guy, this is the bad guy. And we fixed it. One of the maxims of marketing is that simplicity sells. And one of the things that a lot of us respect about Apple was the degree to which Steve Jobs could just come in and hit something with a simple stick and knock away the dross and reduce it to an even more basic format, cleaner format. And that truism holds. But I think what we have to ask is, but what are the side effects?JC: Out with the old lie that we are this great good in the world who doesn't make mistakes and we are singularly and universally better than the governments and better than business and all that. [Instead lets puruse transparency. Lets say] here's where we screwed up. Here's lessons we're learning. Here's what we need to do better." And it's been an effort to, I think, move closer to what you've said here, that many of us are realizing that the world is just more complex than what we were often told it was. And those who refuse to reckon with it are going to get left behind.

It's an audacious goal, which Jeremy acknowledges, but isn't willing to back down from.

We're in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, responding to the refugee crisis on the US-Mexico border. Earlier this year, we began showing up just across the border in El Paso, Texas, listening, learning, and lending a hand where we could, thanks to many of you. We distributed emergency backpacks and listened to leaders on the ground.US protocols have rapidly changed, forcing most asylum seekers to wait on the Mexico side of the border. So we’ve shifted our focus to the growing needs in Juarez, just across from El Paso, where many people are sheltering after they petition for asylum.On Giving Tuesday, we’re excited to announce a new initiative we’re launching where you can help us provide jobs for the most marginalized asylum seekers on the US-Mexico border. And you can be a part of it.Text “border update” to 72000 to sign up so you can be the first to know about what we're launching on Giving Tuesday. You can play an important role in choosing to love anyway at the US-Mexico border.Learn more.

This breaking episode features firsthand accounts of what's happening on the ground in Syria. After our team heard updates from Erin Wilson and Jen Meyerson about what they saw displaced people facing weeks after the US troop withdrawal in northeastern Syria, we knew we had to pause our regularly-scheduled Love Anyway podcast episodes.What they told us is too important not to share. Some of the stories you’ll hear are quite literally life-and-death scenarios.Our team reports that the Turkish ceasefire is not over. Violence is continuing. Families are hiding in gutters and sewers as Turkish bombs fall. Preemptive Love has a presence throughout the vulnerable region of northeastern Syria. Despite the danger, we’re not going anywhere. Our on-the-ground teams are continuing to receive people, including young children, who have experienced serious injuries as a direct result of this violence.Learn more.
