Helping At The Food Bank
Today my Sunday School class and I worked at the local food bank sorting through things like sodas, canned goods, and other groceries. This is a good ministry thing. As we were doing this it made me think about the fact that there was a day a few decades ago when evangelical churches did not do much of this thing, as they thought they should only do things like having church services and doing outreach evangelism. Yet, social ministry is not a liberal thing; it is a Christian thing! I am glad that era of Bible-believing churches doing social ministry is over.
In the words of the great theologian Forrest Gump "And that's all I got to say about that."

It's always a blessing to me to see our class step up to social ministry. Sometimes we do things (like the Food Bank) that has no direct relationship to "soul winning," and yet we all understand that it still has an impact on the Kigdom. It's an understanding of what "doing unto the least of these" means.
