Until 8am tomorrow morning, every donation to any Minnesota non-profit is eligible for a matching gift from GiveMN.org, including Desiring God and Bethlehem Baptist Church. You can read about it here.
A few minutes ago I saw this ‘leader board’ based on the number of people who have chosen to donate to various non-profits. Currently Desiring God is number 4, which is very encouraging.
I offer it not to guilt anyone about giving – I firmly believe the first thing people should do when it comes to money and contributions is pray and seek God’s leading.
But I find it interesting to see what people value. And there’s one organization in particular I wouldn’t mind seeing disappear, not just from this board but from the face of the planet. Someday. . . .
