when i was an impact co-chair a few years ago, our t-shirts had a quote on them that said this:
"Because with every decision, conversation, gesture, comment, action, and attitude, we're inviting heaven or hell to earth."
-- Rob Bell (this is from his book Sex God which i highly recommend.)
1000 Wells TAMU exists as a part of Blood:Water Mission - an organization seeking to build clean water wells in Africa in order to reduce the horrors of the ongoing HIV/AIDS crisis. starting Monday, students will be asked to give up all beverages except water for 2 weeks and donate the money they would have spent to the cause. this year, they'll be kicking the 2 weeks off with a free derek webb concert at fbc bryan on sunday at 7:30.
i'd say that's bringing some heaven to earth. and i'd say Jesus cares a lot about heaven and earth.
the battalion (A&M's student newspaper), featured an article about 1000 Wells yesterday if you want some more insight.
