  1. For Those Who Have Ears to Hear

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / December 1, 2012 /
    There is a program in Portland, as well as many other cities, in which the most needy homeless are granted an opportunity to move into an apartment for six months, cost free. The idea behind this is to give a homeless person an opportunity to get off the street permanently....

  2. Attending Church

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / November 24, 2012 /
    Guest blog by Rebecca Floyd So, last week we made the decision to stop running around like crazy people on the weekend trying to “attend” two churches. We love our Calvary Chapel church but haven’t felt that was exactly where God wanted us to stay since we started attending. Which...

    / November 11, 2012 /
    I have this friend who was homeless for a long time, moved out of state who is now doing well with housing and meetings and all. I haven’t heard from for a while, but he called me the other day. I saw his name on the caller ID, but I...

  4. Safe and Sound: Being Compassionately Wise

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / November 7, 2012 /
    I have a friend, Bert, who is a strong follower of Jesus and also is homeless. He travels from church to church, from homeless ministry to another, receiving when he must and helping when he can. He’s often a bit too loud, and sometimes he just has to suddenly leave,...

  7. The Well-Tempered Giver

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / October 23, 2012 / 1 Comment
    Most of us treat compassion and giving as a happenstance. It isn’t something we plan, but we can be expected to do the right thing when it comes along. It is interesting that one of the most poignant passages on the giver, Psalm 41:1-3, treats giving in a different way. ...

  8. Should We Give to the Poor?

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / October 23, 2012 / 1 Comment
    We all know the situation: We are driving on a freeway offramp or near a busy intersection and there is a guy or gal holding a sign. Sometimes the sign is funny, like the old guy who has the sign “Allergic to Jail, Too Ugly to Prostitute”; sometimes simple “A...

  9. Kingdom Hope for the Poor

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / October 17, 2012 /
    This article was first posted on the Mustard Seed Associates blog. There is an emphasis in most congregations about responsibility. Taking personal responsibility for our actions is a key essence of basic teaching on repentance and forgiveness. Unless we recognize what we are responsible for, the ways that we have...

  10. The Chaos Monster

    Posted by SteveKimes
    / October 10, 2012 /
    This was shared by my friend, Pastor Ron Clark. Time to vent a little. This is for my friends who believe that the poor, homeless, and jobless need to just “get a job” and quit asking for help. Today I went with one of our guys who was homeless, went...
