God loves you, and paid a great price to show it. You are his creation. All
of the things that make you who you are: Your experiences, your skills,
your talents, you abilities, and your resources. Everything about you has
been designed for His kingdom and His purpose. Following his resurrection,
Jesus traveled around shamelessly preaching the Gospel, and meeting the
needs of the people. In the 2000 years since that time, those needs have
not changed. People still need the church. People still need Christ. God
has called us to engage the lost, using those resources that he has blessed
us with.
