Here's a video of Tim Keller speaking on how individuals and churches should respond to the poor. Keller lays out the social responsibilities of the church clearly and systematically. This is well worth watching/listening.

Boy did this spark some animated debate at our house, in terms of how simple our lives need to be in order to be truly following the Biblical mandate to care for the poor.
ReplyDeleteI am going to link to it, but sadly, few if any will click on it.
Thank you!
Saying the above was very self-righteous and I'm sorry for it. Clicking on links with children around to care for is so hard. I have time to click on so few, that it was stupid of me to say this. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteChristine, I didn't think your comment sounded self-righteous at all.
