Shrinking your global intake but not your heart might be the most important reframe of our generation. We've been conditioned to think that caring more means consuming more, but all it's actually done is paralyze us. The most impactful thing most of us will ever do happens within arm's reach. Great post!

I completely agree! And even having lived in the mission field for a big part of my life, it is the same there. We come with the mindset of changing the world, when really we just interact with the people right in front of us - our neighbors, our community, etc. Great article.
