Charity 0
This Sunday, I begin a 4-part series entitled, “Lent: A Season of Preparation”. I will be focusing on four of the historical themes of Lent: Charity, fasting, prayer and Scripture reading. Today, in preparation for my message for this Sunday, I ran across this statement from C.S. Lewis:
“If our expenditure on comforts, luxuries, amusements, etc., is up to the standard common among those with the same income as our own, we are probably giving away too little. If our charities do not at all pinch or hamper us, I should say they are too small. There ought to be things we should like to do and cannot do because our charitable expenditure excludes them.”
Certainly food for thought.
