The brochure provides suggestions for alternative cooking sources and a checklist of items to keep on hand in preparation for any winter emergency. Regarding finances, Hall suggests keeping on hand two to four weeks of cash for unanticipated expenses. Hall also suggests keeping careful records of the use of funds for tax and financial purposes. Overreaction to Y2K concerns, such as pulling funds from retirement plans or investments, may not be in the best interest of individuals. The brochure concludes with an admonition to be spiritually prepared.
Worry reveals lack of faith.
Failure to prepare for contingencies reveals lack of wisdom. Y2K is not a cause for panic or anxiety. Christians do not hoard resources for themselves. They save and plan in order to share and serve. Those are abiding principles, whether in the first century or the next millennium.
