to act justly, to love tenderly,
and to walk humbly with your God.
- Micah 6:8
Jesus preached more and taught more
about helping the poor and the sick and the hungry
than he did about heaven and hell.
Shouldn't that tell us something?

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
- St Francis of Assisi
What does it profit, my brethren,
if someone says he has faith but does not have works?
Can faith save him?
- James 2:14
The hallmark of a true Christian is charity in thought, word, and deed.
Charity is the principle Christian virtue.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
