I believe that where we direct our money is a great indicator of what we believe to be valuable; John Wesley provides an outstanding example.
Wesley donated to mission causes by sacrificing personal comforts. Living simply, he was able to give more than $500,000 to missions in his lifetime.
When asked about this personal sacrifice, his answer was, "Gladly would I again make the floor my bed, a box my chair, a box my table, rather than that men should perish for want of the knowledge of the Saviour."
