"First, North American Christians are simply not doing enough. We are the richest people ever to walk the face of the earth. Period. Yet, most of us live as though there is nothing terribly wrong in the world.... We do not necessarily need to feel guilty about our wealth.

There is simply not enough yearning and striving going on."
