The LOT Project of Anderson
My friend, Matt Beasley, has started a ministry to the homeless in Anderson, SC called the Least of These(LOT) Project. They had provided food, clothing, and other assistance to many people in need. There organization is struggling financially right now, but God has continued to provide for there needs. They have a big event coming up on Thanksgiving called the Harvest of Hope. Here’s how Matt described it in his own words.

Mark Batterson, the Lion Chaser
It’s only fitting that we take Monday to spotlight the man whose book inspired this site. Mark Batterson is the Lead Pastor of National Community Church in Washington, DC. They are reaching the city in an innovative way by meeting in theaters and coffeehouses throughout the area. It’s truly an amazing story. You can read more about he and his family here. On top of being a pastor, Mark travels the country speaking at various conferences and has written three books In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day
Take Action Thursday-Extreme Makeover Home Edition
This past Lion Chaser Monday, we looked at the Montgomery family who had just been featured on Extreme Makeover Home Edition. My wife and I just found out the show is coming to the Triad area of NC(Greensboro, Winston-Salem, High Point). We have signed up to volunteer sometime between November 11 and 18. The builder is in Lexington-Hedrick Creative Building-but all other information is being kept under wraps. My challenge is that if you live in the area then go here and sign up to be a volunteer. You will be able to take part in changing a family’s life, one brick at a time. There’s a need for skilled and unskilled labor. I am so excited to be able to participate in this. Next Friday, there will be a pep rally in Lexington at Reeds Baptist Church. We can talk about making a difference all we want, but here is a genuine opportunity that will affect an entire community. Maybe you’re not in the area, but you can still pitch in by donating towards the project here. And while I’m at it, here’s some love for Ty Pennington and his latest book.
