b"In my days of social activism - in the 1980's - the cry was 'don't tell me show me'; 'walk the talk'. Today, as in Jesus day, the expectation is that we act out the life-giving good news; that we act to transform child poverty, unjust wages, housing vulnerability for the elderly, for example. What we expect our communities and our world to be, as a reflection of life-giving love and compassion, will shape how we put the good-news into action.\\n\\nText available at: http://www.stmatthews.org.nz/nav.php?sid=586&id=1401"
