Giving Challenge
“I do not believe one can settle on how much we ought to give.
I am afraid the only safe rule is to give more than we can spare. In
other words, if our expenditure on comforts, luxuries, amusements, etc.,
is up to the standard common among those with the same income as our
own, we are probably giving away too little. If our charities do not at
all pinch or hamper us, I should say they are too small. There ought
to be things we should like to do and cannot do because our charitable
expenditure excludes them.” - C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

Wow...challenging. Especially since we're contemplating investing in a climbing frame for kids! I guess I need to contemplate my giving too:) Look forward to a purposeful blether next weekend in London!!
