While in contrast today many Chruches. pastors, members, adherents, are selfish cheapskates. Secondly all pastors, elders, ministers should be called specifically for their Ministry directly by God. Most of them today have not been called for the ministry, for they are hirelings. True pastors, elders, ministers would firstly daily read their Bible for one hour and pray daily for others. http://anyonecare.wordpress.com/ If you read the Book of acts then you did notice that the emphasis on the Holy Spirit, and distributing money, food to the local poor people was part of the reason the churches next were so popular and growing.

It is excellent. Not filled with a whole new list of "to do's". (which was my fear when he said he wanted us to read it --- He bought and gave us copies... :) A quick and worthwhile read in this day when families need simplicity more than ever.
