“Text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to @RedCross relief.”-TechCrunch

The Haitian earthquake has broken the world's hearts.  The news media outlets aren't going to waste an opportunity either, every gratuitous detail is being stretched to it's fullest to make sure the world is watching.  On the brighter side, campaigns have formed to raise support for the relief efforts using Social Media and text messaging. 

According to the NY Times, the Red Cross has been doing this for several years now, using a company called mgive. 
And the power of Twitter and Facebook, the two giants, are also helping provide muscle to is movement.  It's nice to know that our mobile lifestyles can break away from their self-absorption when a need arises.  Most of what is going on is coming from mobile devices. Here is how you can join in:

• Text HAITI to 90999 to donate $10 to the American Red Cross
• Text HAITI to 25383 to donate $5 to International Rescue Committee
• Text HAITI to 45678 to donate $5 to the Salvation Army in Canada
• Text YELE to 501501 to donation $5 to Yele
• Text RELIEF to 30644 to get automatically connected to Catholic Relief Services and donate money with your credit card
• Text HAITI to 864833 to donate $5 to The United Way
• Text CERF to 90999 to donate $5 to The United Nations Foundation
• Text DISASTER to 90999 to donate $10 to Compassion International

A: In our recently published book Already Gone, the research shows that many “20 somethings” have left the church because they question the truthfulness of the Bible, especially as it concerns the age of the earth. As children, they were typically taught Bible “stories” in church. They were shown bathtub-shaped arks overflowing with colorful animals but no mention of fossils, rock layers, and animal kinds.Curriculum publishers, Sunday school teachers, and parents failed to connect the Bible to the real world. So, these children learned that you go to school to learn about history and science, and you go to church to learn moral “stories” and spiritual truths. Sadly, many children are being taught in schools and some churches not to trust God’s Word in Genesis. This leads them to question the truthfulness of all of Scripture, and as young adults, most decide Christianity is irrelevant—and they leave the church.

Marcus Pittman or @LawGrace as he is known in the Twitterverse, is today’s Mobile Missionary. You can learn more about his digital ministry as well as his Open-Air ministry at: http://www.transplantministries.com

Marcus is soldout for Christ, but not in the lame “Jesus is my co-pilot” way that markets the Savior as a lucky charm. He, like a lot of “Christians”, myself included, was fortunate to be raised in the church, but, unfortunately, missing the Law/Grace connection. The Lord, in His sovereignty, removed the veil of misunderstanding and now Marcus is fervently seeking the lost. His message is Law to the Proud and Grace to the Humble; a pity summary of the Gospel, isn’t it? Marcus has a true love for the perishing and a scorpion like sting for those who pose as angels of light yet are wolves in sheep’s clothing. He uses the word like a surgeon’s scalpel to dissect the foolishness of false teachers.
