The man was invited to attend the 10 a.m. chapel service by two students. He accepted the offer and sat on the back row with one of them.

He was pleased to report the Gospel was shared with him three times that morning on the BCF campus.

It reminds me of that great book from the 19th Century, “In His Steps”.

We ought to be sharing the Gospel with everyone; as we don’t know what people are suffering and we’re shy about intruding on the other person’s beliefs. (I can’t help but think of the Madoff boy and his tragic, tragic end that didn’t have to be. Christ died for him, too.) Christ is the only way to the Father; what He did on the cross will turn out to be the MOST important thing in this brief existence on this earth. Yet, many are ashamed of such a “messy death” and talking about it. The first Adam messed up. God must surely have known he was going to mess up when He created man. The result of us being “in Adam” from the first was that WE messed up, participated in it. Only calling on the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ, Yeshua, and repenting, asking Him to save us accepts His sacrifice; a sacrifice He knew He would have to make for us as the “second Adam”, the perfect man.

“Loneliness and rejection is a terrible feeling,”

How true, and how sad in an abundantly populated world that anyone experiences either.

Lewis Duiguid is a liberal columnist for the Kansas City Star. Not sure if he still does it, but he used to dress in old clothes and stand around on the street near city hall once a year or so. He would then write a typical left wing column about how poorly he was treated and how his shabby appearance made him invisible to the people with whom he normally interacted in his work.

One year he reported in total amazement that the only person who had recognized him and greeted him as if nothing was out of the ordinary was a staunch conservative with whom he totally disagreed on all things. He is still a loony lib, so I guess he learned nothing.

It’s just a trick to keep up the 99% homeless myth.

So he pretends to be a bum but he isn’t?

and just how many bums or truly homeless are not bums or truly homeless but actually just posing to teach society some “lesson”?

ridiculous....we are the most charitable folks in the history of mankind...we don’t need the lecture

i don’t need anymore guilt or understanding

most street people I’ve seen are either crazy or addicted to being high...and many don’t want to be in a shelter or off the streets

a few are truly just hard times but there is a whole lot out there to help with that...and i know that because i do help precisely those folks

and I even give to bums...get high or eat a burger...it’s their call

I don´t believe moshiach would be bumming it. But I love that line in Captain From Castille where the priest tells Pedro that, ¨God´s love is a heavy burden¨.

It certainly can be.
