Torch, Fall/Winter 2010

12 TORCH | Fall–Winter 2010 child learns the subject. Second, the child sees an adult who cares, and there are some children who have no adults who really care about them. Develop the talents God has given you, and be willing to volunteer your time. Rev. Wallis: It starts by responding to what Jesus says in Matthew 25: “As you’ve done to the least of these, you’ve done to me.” It starts personally, then it goes into the congregation, communities, and neighborhoods. Then it goes into the nation and into the world. Campaigns — whether a debt cancellation movement, a civil rights movement, or a movement to bring accountability to our financial system — all start by getting involved and beginning to look at the world and seeing it a little more the way Jesus does.
