InAsMuch

I spent some time volunteering recently at InAsMuch ministry downtown here in Fort Wayne. I would characterize their ministry in these ways:

  1. Organized chaos as they help many people
  2. Accountability- the ask people they pledge to help to do a few things, such as
    -Do two take home Bible studies
    -Attend church service (at any Christian church in the area)
    -Work up a budget
    -Try actively to get a job
    -Pay their other bills
  3. Sharing the gospel. This isn't a joke- I watched it happen as they talked frankly with clients about trusting Jesus and getting into church and praying with them out loud.

It was good. I felt like they had a great balance of helping people and challenging them to grow.

InAsMuch deserves support.
