When we get to heaven I'm just not convinced that Jesus is going to say, "When I was hungry, you gave a check to the United Way and they fed me," or, "When I was naked, you donated clothes to the Salvation Army and they clothed me." Jesus is not seeking distant acts of charity. He seeks concrete acts of love: "you fed me....you visited me in prison....you welcomed me into your home....you clothed me."

Laura, Be ready for some things that will challenge you in your walk. He shoots straight and that's what I like about him. The book is really making me take a step back and think about how much more God wants me to do for the kingdom. I really think you and Dan will love it.
