Follow up thoughts from last night

Hi all,

I mentioned an article during the discussion last night. Here is the article:

How about that for keeping one another accountable in the area of giving!

Revisiting the question posted last night about how the church should/can respond to the economic situation, I had this quick thought. We started to address it last night, but stress often comes with financial hardship. So, another way the church can respond is to pay special attention to dealing with stress and providing resources for folks to deal with stress.
