How convicting a video

I know a lot of you have seen this before but MAN!!! How convicting is this. Makes me want to have everyone just give me cash to send to charities! Go Sarah! At the same time it makes me a bit sad for the country that we live in and how much money we spend on things that make such a realtively small impact on us and could make such a large impact on others.

I so want to be content with what I have. I so want others to be content about what they have. I soooo want our christian brothers and sisters all around the world to know that we are praying, fighting, and longing to help them.

How about we make Starbucks go out of business by not buying our super grande, calorie laden, extra dry, super deluxe, triple shot, 4-dollar-a-pop Carmel Macciato (how do you spell that anyway?) every other day and instead pocket that money and send it to our starving brothers and sisters in Christ around the globe!

I know I have a lot of growth in the area, but man... If one pop artist can make such a profound impact and statement what can we as the american Christian culture at large do?

..... Lets have the faith to move mountians.

World on Fire Video
Good article on the cost of the video

    that blog rocks...I used the video at my class when it came out on the net a few weeks ago...the students were shocked that a "quote/unquote" NON-Christian artist did such a Christian thing. So, Christians don't have a monopoly on truth and love, huh?
