We have a servant evangelism committee, and we normally reach out to the community, but we decided to broaden our scope and now we are reaching out to our brothers and sisters along the Gulf Coast who are in need of assistance,

A lot of people in the business community are questioning what this is all about.

It's going to be better than it was. That's what the committee decided, and I'm a team player. That's what we'll do and everything will be fine.

We should be more concerned with reaching the lost than pampering the saved.

Manners matter as this author memorably illustrates. Eleanor Roosevelt stubbornly kept her clout behind Adlai Stevenson was an almost visceral resistance to John F. Kennedy's charms as a newcomer to power. The sudden death of Eleanor's granddaughter shortly before JFK was to meet with her suggested that rapprochement was impossible. Kennedy's genuine gentle manners toward the grieving former first lady won her over and may have shifted the balance in an extremely close election.

It is about getting involved in the betterment of us all. This community will stop growing if we don't broaden our net.
