CharityWater.org is a great organization! They've worked on over 1,200 wells since they began, 3 years ago. 100% of your donation goes to building wells (private donors cover their overhead and administrative costs) - and they're making a huge difference. Help them reach the 1 Million mark this September!

Another compelling video from Charity:Water.

Some outsiders see the Church as being all about money. It's not hard to understand why when we build multi-million dollar buildings and have multi-million dollar budgets - not that these are wrong, but it's a lot of money we need to be good stewards of.

What does it mean to be a good steward of God's money? What do we spend it on?

Cornerstone Simi has felt convicted to give 50% of their money away to help those in need. What does Jesus want you to do with your money?

Several churches now spend lots of money on cool printed materials, musicians, smart lights & production - to get outsiders to come to church. What if we gave-away money to help the poor - would that also get outsiders to come to church?
