You gotta love these quotes:
The time has passed when we can define ourselves on the tired old labels of conservative or liberal, evangelical or charismatic, Catholic or Protestant. All who have faith in Jesus belong to him. Everyone who serves the mission is a follower of his. It is time for all of us to CHANGE the WORLD together.
– Mike Slaughter, pastor at Ginghamsburg UMC in Ohio
Faith is not just for the new life, the hereafter; it is precisely intended to transform the world in the here and now—otherwise, most of the Bible makes no sense at all.
– Jim Wallis, author, social activitist and director of Sojourners
Both men are speakers, along with our pastor Adam Hamilton, at the upcoming Change the World Conference at Ginghamsburg UMC in Ohio. The Resurrection missions staff will be attending.

A few years ago when I was a confirmation mentor , I used to tell my group of 7th graders that the Bible is Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. We are called by faith to help transform our world with our service. We all need to be reminded to consult these basic instructions often!
