Here are some thoughts from Shane:
* We need to laugh at the things in our world that have no power.
* There is a new economy in which Christians need to participate, it is God's economy. Even if we have to give up our families to follow Jesus we will be surrounded by countless brothers and sisters in Christ. If we have to give up our houses for the case of Christ we will still have homes among the church community.
* We have to start with what we have. We can do more together than separately.
* The probelm is not that rich people don't care for poor people, they just don't know any poor people.
* Making poverty history starts with making poverty personal.
* The best thing to do with the best things in life is to give them away.
* Serving the poor is only serving Jesus in his most distressing disguises.(!)
* Independence is not a biblical value. (ok this gets personal)
* We should not ask the world to come into the church, but we should go out to them.
