“Jesus said [cf. Matthew 25:31-46] whatever you do to the least of these, my brothers, you’ve done it to me. And this is what I have come to think. That if I want to identify fully with Jesus Christ, who I claim to be my Savior and Lord, the best way that I can do that is to identify with the poor. This I know will go against the teachings of popular evangelical preachers. But they’re just wrong.”
Rich Mullins (1955-1997), from a concert clip quoted in The Right Church by Charles Gutenson (Nashville: Abingdon, 2012) 155.
