THE SNOWBALL IS ROLLING AND GROWING...
you must know that our only intention for www.thelifehouse.org/thegiveproject was to help needy people in our community by empowering Lifehouse Church people with resource.
Already, people are being impacted and needy people are being helped and encouraged. Imagine the people of the Church rallying around sharing God's love through helping and serving others. We can change the world through a revolution of love and kindness.
And now the ball is rolling...
word is spreading and people are joining the cause of giving and living selflessly.
We can join together in this by abandoning our selfish ambitions, serving others (with money, time, kind words, whatever), looking for needs and meeting them, as well as giving to the one organism that God established to spread the message of His love and hope to the world- THE CHURCH. Not the greedy organization we so often despise, but the missional gathering of people who believe that they are ambassadors of hope to our community and needy world.

I know that there will be nay-sayers who see this as another "church publicity stunt". Can I confess that after I saw the emails about the various news reports that I kind of shrunk back myself...and I am a big Patrick Grach/Lifehouse cheerleader!
Then i started to read some stories and I was filled with tears seeing people's lives changed with modern "miracles". This whole idea dies unless we demonstrate a consistent love of Christ in a way that shows people God wants to use the church to be the tool of change. In the world of politics, every candidate wants you to believe they can create the most change for America. God is the only one who can create true and lasting change. The church must regain its rightful place as His vessel of hope and compassion.
