This is Awesome... you have to listen to it!

I finally got a chance to hear Mike Yankoski who spoke at Grace back in April. I'm not sure if you know who he is, but he and a friend spent 5 months living on the streets and he talks about helping the homeless.

His message is like nothing I've every heard. His goal isn't to bash the church or show us how distant we are from people that aren't in our social group. Instead, he gives practicle examples of how to help and also the reality that Jesus said that the homeless will always be with us. Instead of trying to solve their problems, we are commanded to help those that WE come in contact with - not change their lives.

Ok, here's the link the audio is under "Mike Yankoski"....
