Week 3:

365 Ways to Change the World: How to Make a Difference - One Day at a Time

Monday, Oct 21st: 1:00-2:30pm

This week, I picked up a book that had been sitting on my shelf for a couple years.  365 Ways to Change the World... provides ideas for being a "mover and a shaker" when it comes to helping the world in which we live.  I particularly liked this book because it doesn't just give ideas, it really flushes them out.  Each idea has a page long description, providing both interesting facts and resources to get started.

The ideas are broken up into various categories and are really diverse from each other.  One idea that I found quite interesting was about the negative effects of the shrimp industry and how many other fish would be saved if we stopped eating shrimp.  Another idea, which I might incorporate into our Bible Study, is to visit churches of other religions in order to increase your perspective of other world religions.  The book gave the advice of calling ahead to these church organizations in order to see if they had open service and what the expectations are of guests.

I can't wait to read more of this book and attempt to incorporate more of these ideas into my daily life.
