Doing Justice, Just Do it!!!!
This past weekend I found a new appreciation for Paul’s words in Galatians 5:16,
“But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.” (NASB).
How does one refrain from doing evil? By thinking real hard and long? By
meditation and contemplation? By one’s doctrinal beliefs? Not at all!
Its by walking by the Spirit or to put it another way, by living obediently to God’s calling of abundant wholeness. This past weekend I attended Pentecost 2008, Training for Change, a one and a half day conference on organizing teams to help make poverty a central issue in your Churches and in the White House. Part of the experience of being there was participating in groups where you was challenged to share relevant autobiographical information to people, in just 2 minutes, that served as a frame of reference as to why one is called to peace and justice. By the time the training was over, participants were already mobilizing a team and carrying out a plan of overcoming poverty. READ THE REST AT

Thats Awesome. Thats what the movement is about. If we can all come together as a cohesive movement. I would love to know how to support and get involved with that another good organization is The Glue Network they deal with Human Trafficking another important issue. Pentecost 2008 / Training For Change how do you find out more info. Thats what we are all about. Being FOR SOMETHING and DOING SOMETHING for those. Giving people a "cup of cold water in Jesus name" and more. Thats mad dope.
The dope part is they didn't just talk about it but started doing something before the conference was over.
