Just STOP and actually think about this.
26,000 children die of EASILY preventable causes everyDAY.
(Thats 1 child every 3 seconds.)
Over HALF the world lives on less than $2 a day.
We are rich. Oh so rich.
It is estimated that it would cost $13 Billion to provide basic nutrition to every starving person in the world.
Christians in the U.S spend approximately:
$3 Billion on bottle water
$11 Billion on coffee
$13 Billion on our pets
$20 Billion on soft drinks
$21 Billion on cable TV
$105 Billion on eating out
