"God is in the slums, in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is in the silence of a mother who has infected her child with a virus that will end both their lives. God is in the cries heard under the rubble of war. God is in the debris of wasted opportunity and lives, and God is with us if we are with them."

- Bono (U2)

Average


The Average Person
in the US gives only 2.1 percent to all charitable causes. The average Christian in America tithes 2.66 percent of his/her income to the church. If we assume that Christians are also giving the additional 2.1 percent of their income to charitable causes, that's still only 4.76 percent of their income - not even half of the Biblical tithe (Lev. 27:30-32)
