I'm currently reading a book by Francis Chan entitled "Crazy Love."
In the book he tells the story of a friend who was faithfully giving 20 percent of his income to God, and suddenly his income dropped drastically. He knew he had to decide whether he should continue to give in a way that proved he trusted God. It wouldn't have been wrong to lower his giving to 10 percent. But instead, his friend chose to increase his giving to 30 percent, despite the income reduction.
Today we are partnering with Seattles Union Gospel Mission to provide 1 meal - 1 hope.
$38 a month for two months will provide 40 meals and care this holiday season at Seattles Union Gospel Mission. The meal is the "point of entry" for so many other aspects of Seattle's Union Gospel Mission. You can know that with each meal you provide, you are making a difference.
You can give here right now!
Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving. ~W.T. Purkiser

Great follow up story!! You give us your amazing story of giving and then challenge us to follow with a much more simple act of donation.
I'm reading this book and going through it with my high school girls. It's really challenged me.
