I Could Use Your Help

I enjoy writing and many have encouraged me to write a book-length text on my beliefs about a Jesus-centered response to poverty. In addition, I have several friends in publishing who beleieve there is a market for a book such as this. However…

I am an extrovert. Given a choice between sitting down and writing for four hours or spending time hanging out with the hurting people I minister to or, really, anyone who will listen to me, I choose the people. Every single time.

Additionally, I find I do my best thinking, at least for first drafts, in response to questions. They help me focus and give me a framework. That said, I need your help.

Please ask me some questions. They can be anything that are related to my work with the poor and homeless in some way. Preferance is given to questions that are faith oriented.

They can be as simple as you want, or as deep as you want to go. Anything, as long as it is tied to poverty and faith in some way, is fair game. This can be something you want to know, or something you wish your bone-headed friend would read. Whatever.

Of course, they are confidential and I won’t use your name without permission.

You can just email them back to me at hughlh@gmail.com. Thanks so much in advance for your help.

Thanks!

Just a quick note to say thank you for all the love, affection and well wishes Renee and I have received over the last few weeks. We feel very loved - in fact, we feel spoiled.

Some folks have asked what will happen to the wedding blog now that, well, the wedding is over. The short answer is we will keep it as a family blog, so our friends, etc. will be able to keep up with us. Expect lots of cat pictures and so on.

If you read my blog because of the work I do, there probably won’t be anything for you over there. That is the part of my life that makes the public part possible.
