I have been trying to read a chapter of “The Revolution” every day or two. I have really been taken by this flood of thoughts and action dealing with Christians and social justice. Ever since Bono challenged the faith communities to stand up and take action something clicked in me. I have started reading websites about it like One, Data, Make Trade Fair and Make Poverty History. I’m trying to find my role as a Christian and being a consumer, an advocate and making a real difference in peoples lives whether locally or globally. My wife makes fun of me because I wanted coffee and the store didn’t have any fair trade coffee and I told her that it hurt to have to buy it. I think this whole movement boils down to dying to self and thinking of others first. I keep you posted on how all this begins to work out in my daily life.
