The Hole in our Gospel

I'm about 60 pages into the book called The Hole in our Gospel written by Richard Stearns, President of World Vision. Highly recommended. I'm sitting around praying that God would make a way to get the book into lots of hands around OHC. It would be really great if our marathon team, which now number 83 people, would be able to read it as they train to run the Chicago Marathon on Team World Vision. Stearns starts his chapters with quotes/Scriptures. Here's one-

Christ has no body on earth but yours,
no hands but yours,
no feet but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which
Christ's compassion for the world is to look out;
yours are the feet with which He is to go about doing good;
and yours are the hands with which He is to bless us now.

- Saint Teresa of Avila
