Illustration from Dying to Self - A wealthy university graduate chose to live frugally in a single room, cooking his own meals. As a result he was able to give two million dollars to foreign missions. In explanation of his choice he wrote these words: “Gladly would I make the floor my bed, a box my chair, and another box my table, rather than men should perish for want of knowledge of Christ.”

From Michael McCartney’s Sermon: “Role-Model Saints” Romans pt. 14
