I was hungry and you formed a humanities club to discuss my hunger. Thank you.

I was imprisoned and you crept off quietly to your chapel to pray for my release. Nice.

I was naked and in your mind you debated the morality of my appearance. What good did that do?

I was sick and you knelt and thanked God for your health. But I needed you.

I was homeless and you preached to me of the shelter of the love of God. I wish you had taken me home.

I was lonely and you left me alone to pray for me. Why didn't you stay?

You seem so holy, so close to God; but I am still very hungry, lonely, cold, and still in pain. Does it matter?

Stabbing! Really cuts my heart open, and makes me see the way I've been acting.

How disturbing? (And I'm not simply talking about your picture)

I wonder if a confrontational note like this will provoke action when I'm not sitting in front of my computer screen in the comfort of my own space?

Well, you can always print the note and place it in other areas of life.

Ouch, my toes!  I thought mile one was far enough - sound's like God might be wanting us to go the second mile for others.  Now I see.

PS - I guess Monte's getting you back for the picture you put on of him last week.

maybe this is an idea that sometimes we think we are missional by our actions, but we've got the whole idea skewed to our "social club church" concepts-
