I'm right in the middle of the book What Difference Do It Make? which is the follow up book to Same Kind of Different As Me by Ron Hall and Denver Moore. You may remember that I've mentioned this book several times, and the huge impact it had on me.

And, again, if you haven't read Same Kind of Different ... Read More about What difference do it make?
Still a heavy heart
I went back.My heart still hurts.I have so many questions.Once again, I'm so overwhelmed with the need all around us.But, God is good to give me little bites to chew on here and there.Last week I pondered the fact that many of these people we see at the "soup kitchen" will not ever feel comfortable in a traditional church setting.
