Children lose parents – Churches argue issues

There is an amazing essay at Jade Catherine’s site that is well worth reading. The link to her essay is here. This exerpt gave me pause to think:

There is an immense crisis in the world. Where does helping the miserable and the helpless fall in the priorities of Jesus’ people? If you go around churches and Christian circles and listen to what’s being discussed and watch what’s being done – what will that say about our priorities and our passion? What do we truly care about?

“He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow, and loves the alien, giving him food and clothing.”
