Last Read - Red Letters: Living a Faith that Bleeds, by Tom Davis. Quick read, but hardly easy. He takes perhaps the toughest part of the gospel (see Matthew 25:31-46) and applies it to the AIDS crisis in Africa. 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' How long can I reconcile this broken heart with these idle hands?
