New Hope’s Mission Project

This picture makes me so happy. It’s a ministry that was the God breathed inspiration of my wife Kim Weller Porter to provide bags for the homeless. Her Sunday school class has taken on this ministry. They keep the bags in their cars and have them when they come across people in the community that might need them.

It’s not the bag that excites me. A city the size of Columbus has plenty of agencies that are doing these same things. But it’s the people of faith at my church, Striplin Terrace, that are now riding around in their cars looking for the face of Jesus. It brings tears to my eyes just typing this.

You see, our job is not to change the world. That’s God’s job. Our job is just to look for the face of Jesus and respond when we see him.

Can you imagine the lives that could be changed if we just live and move through life looking for the face of Jesus. It’s amazing to dream
