“By far the most dangerous foe we have to fight is apathy - indifference from whatever cause, not from a lack of knowledge, but from carelessness, from absorption in other pursuits, from a contempt bred of self satisfaction”

                                                        - William Osler

 

But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

                                                        - 1 John 3:17

I am part of  team of about 30 people from Shelter Rock Church www.ShelterRockChurch.com that will be running 26.2 miles in the Chicago Marathon on Sunday October 12th to raise money and support for Team World Vision. You can support my efforts through Team World Vision:
