A Punk Monkey Challenge:

As a punk monkey I must say I am not impressed with humans.  They are great talkers, but they are not very good at doing.  What I have found out over the past about humans is amazing; if you say “they do nothing” they always give you a list of things other people are doing and then they say, “see, we are doing things.”  They take credit for what others are doing  - it’s not a “we are doing” it’s actually a “they are doing.”  Here’s a list of things you can do and truly make the “we” actually mean you – this way you won’t have to lie and place yourself into a group you do not belong in:

1.  

1. Take a homeless person to launch; I mean sit with them and eat with them, learn their name and where they are from – make a new friend.

2. Take $50.00, in $5’s, out of your checking account and give out the money to the next 10 people who ask – without questions on your part - just give

3. Go to a second hand store and buy some clothes.  Put them on and, not bathing that day – no makeup, and don’t fix your hair – go to a park and ask people for money, or stand in front of a downtown office building.

4. Spend the night in the park

5. Go to a local soup kitchen for lunch

6. Go to the local churches food banks and try to get food.

7. Dressed in your second hand cloths, try to visit with a senior pastor and ask for money

8. Dressed in your second hand cloths, visit a church on Sunday –

9. Stand at the exit at a local food store with a sign “need food to feed family” and count the cars that pass and the ones that give

I’m sure you can think of more – go for it. 

What I find interesting is that humans will read this list and say, “Man I bet that would be an experience” and then do nothing.  Humans always find reasons why they cannot walk in the shoes of others; I heard on human say this, “I would love to help feed the homeless on that day, but I have a bible study to attend.”  What?  Why study the bible when you can live it?  How about this; take your home group and instead of watching a movie, making pizzas, studying the bible, singing songs, talking about the kids, or sharing the latest sponge cake recipe work in a food kitchen feeding the hungry?  Who knows, you just may find a deeper relationship with God by living the scriptures and not just reading them.
