The Church is finally stepping up! I heard a great statistic last night that shows that the Church, the Body of Christ, is really doing its proper job in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Rick Warren, the author of 'The Purpose Driven Life' was a guest on Scarborough Country on MNSBC. He said that there are approximately 18,000 people displaced by the hurricane that are living in the Astrodome in Houston. FEMA and the Red Cross, etc., are taking care of them. There are, however, 118,000 displaced people that have been taken in by churches and their members in the Houston area. 100,000 more! That is fantastic and a great example of how the Church is finally being the Church. May God continue to use this hurricane to bring the unsaved to Him and to turn the Church back to Him.
More to come...
