For too long, as part of the boomer church, we have stood by and built a self-focused, self-absorbed church. No wonder that people of our day have so little time for a church that looks so little like Jesus. Lead us. And remember that not all is lost. There are those of us out there that are listening and responding to what God has placing on your heart. Terry Great work guys.

This issue has been on my heart for some time, and I love how this project has given that legs. The problem I have is that I tend to think people need to take responsibility for their own lives. They need to get clean, they need to find a job, they need to become responsible. Before I want to offer help I want them to do something, but that spits in the face of the grace that God gave me. I was a enemy to God, dirty and full of hate for him. He did not ask me to clean up first, He just gave me His free gift of grace. So why do I hold back love and help to those who need it? I feel blessed for this past week, to study scripture and learn about the problem and ways to help. God's grace has become more learn to me, thank you for that. Kyle, thank you for this post.
