Welcome

Welcome to Our Old Shoes. This blog is dedicated to helping people make a difference in this world. I believe that everyone has a responsibility to help those around us; however, I believe that true change comes through Jesus Christ. As Christians we believe that we are called to stand along side those who cannot stand for themselves, we are called to recognize the dignity that every person has in them and we are called to be Christ's presence in this hurting world. This site strives to help people become more aware of the needs of this world and challenge them to act in creative ways to meet those needs.

The name of this blog, Our Old Shoes, comes out of my personal blog, Old, Comfy Shoes. The posts in Old, Comfy Shoes tell about the things in life that bring me joy, laughter and comfort. This blog will focus on things that bring out compassion, tears and hope. I called it Our Old Shoes because we are all in this walk of life together. Some of us are rich, others poor. Some of us are educated and smart and others of us are not. Some of us are hurting and some of us are being healed, but at the end of the day we are all just people. We are people in need of a Savior and our struggles are as old as time. Our Old Shoes wants to point out the hope that every Christian has in our walk through life and the responsibility we have to share that hope with a hurting world.

Here you will find practical ways to give, learn, grow and act. For now posting will be made weekly. Welcome to Our Old Shoes.
