Should I give money to people on the street who ask for it?

Michael Spencer, The Internet Monk, writes lots of worthwhile posts. I don't know how he manages to keep it up, day after day. Especially as he has a demanding school chaplain's job to do.

I thought this particular post was the best thing I have read on the subject. He has given some good practical advice, which has been supported by Scripture.

We are in your debt, Michael.
