The Need for Christian Charity in the Midst of Economic Crisis

The latest issue of World Magazine has a short little article on Christian Charity (or lack thereof) and its witness to an unbelieving world. In the midst of the problems on Wall Street and Main Street, my prayer is that the body of Christ will give even more to the those who are truly in need and thus not only show mercy and compassion, but that it may also open the door for evangelism. One of our favorite charities is Blood: Water Mission. They can also be found on myspace. For local ministries, we are greatly encouraged by the work of Lifeline Pregnancy Crisis Center. May God richly bless the work of these two groups, and the countless others who are sharing the gospel of Christ in word and deed.
