You Have to Be Rich to Be Poor

Do you make judgements about people who are poor?

Do you make assumptions about those who use food stamps?

Do you think you understand what it's like to be poor?

I would encourage you to go and read this story that the Washington Post released on Monday. I think it may radically change your views...and may even cause you to make a difference!

Phil Wickham Sing Along

Phil Wickham is an unbelievable singer songwriter.  We do several of his songs at theGathering on Wednesday nights.  He just recorded a live album in Oregon and is giving it away free!  Go here and get it.

Unbelievable

Sorry that I am posting another Invisible Children video...but it is amazing what is happening! Young people....listen to the end of this video and understand that you are not to young to make a difference!

The Rescue: St. Louis

It was great to be a part of this with a group of our students. This video was put together by one of our college students. If you went or if you didn't, don't stop being a voice for the voiceless. Check out "the invisible children."

Help I'm A Parent of a Teenager

Embrace Chicago Recap

Couple of thoughts about the jr. high "embrace" Chicago trip:

1. I love Jr. Highers!

2. Every young person should take a trip and serve other people (hopefully in returning home, they begin to serve where they live)

3. The man who led the Good News Soup Kitchen said, "There should be no soup kitchens!  The issue of those who have and those who have nots should not exist. "  Beautiful idea...could this really happen?

4. Your relationship and mine with Jesus is a process and a journey.  You don't become just like Jesus over night...it takes days, weeks, months, years to become who he wants us to be.  The important things is that we keep moving closer to Him and His ways.

5. I can't wait to "embrace" NYC with the High School and College Students.
