When sacrifice isn't really sacrifice
- Ian Carmichael •

A disparaging view of young adults is not biblical.
The end of the world is not the end of the story

Who could possibly be in a better position than a Christian to live modestly, humbly, generously; who could be in a better position to consume less, to put self aside and care for others?
