Each time anyone comes into contact with us, they must become different and better people because of having met us. We must radiate God's love. We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved. Love does not measure...it just gives.

The Word
Then they came to Jerusalem. And Jesus entered the temple and began to drive out those who were selling and those who were buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves; and he would not allow anyone to carry anything through the temple. He was teaching and saying, "Is it not written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations'? But you have made it a den of robbers." And when the chief priests and the scribes heard it, they kept looking for a way to kill him; for they were afraid of him, because the whole crowd was spellbound by his teaching.
- Mark 11:15-18 |

Consider, for a moment, the Shaker chair. Perfect in its construction. Free of adornment but aesthetically magnificent. Made as if God would be pleased. Made by people who cared only that God was pleased. Read more in this edition of Faith Week in Review.

Reel Faith
 Madagascar
At New York's Central Park Zoo, a lion (Stiller), a zebra (Rock), a giraffe (Schwimmer), and a hippo (Smith) are best friends and stars of the show. But when one of the animals goes missing from their cage, the other three break free to look for him, only to find themselves reunited ... on a ship en route to the island of Madagascar. When their vessel capsizes off the coast, however, the friends, who have all been raised in captivity, learn first-hand what life can be like in the wild. Stars: Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, David Schwimmer, Jada Pinkett Smith. Rated PG for mild language, crude humor and some thematic elements.
