Video Resource
"Always ... Therefore" is a 28-minute video on ways the Christian church can actively engage in feeding a hungry world. The title comes from Deuteronomy 15:11, which says: “For the poor will never cease out of the land. Therefore I [God] command you, You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in the land." Churchnet (a ministry of the Baptist General Convention of Missouri) will provide a FREE copy of this video for your church. Contact the Churchnet office at (888) 420-2426 to request your copy. You may also download the Student and Leader Guides.

The resource has a twofold goal:
* Explore the biblical mandate to feed the hungry. Baptists are people of the book. The book is our moral compass.
* Raise the level of awareness about and deepen the commitment to what good will Baptists are doing through Baptist World Aid and its partners to be faithful to the biblical mandate.
