Quotemeal: Aug. 7th, 1947

Thursday, August 7, 1947

"Living for others, commitment to God's redeeming purposes, is a means of grace. We give because of our faith, and it deepens as we give. If we permit ourselves and our people to give casually, we are really teaching contempt."
— Richard S. Emrich
