"Life is full of so many pursuits, many of them worthwhile. We get a job, we buy a house, we have kids. This is normal life in the West. Yet frequently the stuff of this normal life so dominates our time and attention that we fail to see issues greater than ourselves. If we are never interrupted, and if we do not intentionally strive to raise people to value the stranger and the need in the ways God does, everyday activities will crowd out God’s call on our lives."
~ Will and Lisa Samson (Justice in the Burbs: Being the Hands of Jesus Wherever You Live)
