The Cause Within You by Matthew Barnett


Matthew Barnett

"What I have Learned says Matthew Barnett"

Today I have had the pleasure of reading The Cause by Matthew Barnett and I am on page 51. It is obvious the date on my camera is off b/c this book just came out in 2011. Today is 6/1/2011

I am reading the background of how the Dream Center got started and what they do. I do not want to spoil this book so I am going to say that it’s a wonderful read.

Instead of celebrating such a great success in Matthews Ministry he goes into the streets of L.A. and lives among the skid row people, the homeless to bring back “His Fire For The Lord” and his original passion to help people: not build a church.

Page 53 is Chapter 5\Discovering the Cause of a Lifetime; where I hope Matthew walks me through “how to find my own cause.”

With all that said, I pray that you pick up this book and let me know what you think of it. Have a great week and bless others anyway you can with what you have today in your hands.

Be a blessing~ Jackie Paulson

    It was in esquire magazine, that I read an article written by a photojournalist who was living the life of the displaced workers of L.A. reminiscent of the Hoover-villes of the great depression. It was a sad riveting read but the story needs to be told because this should be going on in our country.The book you are in the midst of reading sounds like it is trying to spread the word. I hope that the book continues to be a great read.

    The cause within us is never to be the source of someone’s misfortune and never pass up the opportunity to perform a charitable act. That’s religion, philosophy, meaning and purpose in 23 words not a book. There is no charge for this. Except I charge everyone to so live.
