Doing something

So when do we start doing something radical about poverty? Last night as I unloaded our $120 worth of groceries for the week, and mentally compiled my list of things to buy at target today I concluded that perhaps when my guilt becomes less bearable than my complacency or sense of powerlessness I might change something. After returning from Haiti and reading the most convicting book I’ve ever encountered- Sider’s Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger- I feel like I am accountable for too much. There is a price to be paid for exposure.
