So, lets be honest... have you ever wanted to dress up like a superhero and just do good stuff?
My knee jerk reaction to this story was that it was really easy to make fun of anyone who actually dressed up like a 'superhero' and went out in public. But then I realized that people were going out and doing things, just good things, that most people fail to do on a daily basis. They are ordinary people who just want to help make their world a better place. Handing out water, raising money for the homeless, helping the little old lady across the street. All the little things that you expected Superman to do on his down time, not because he could fly, but because it was the right thing to do.
Check out this article, it explains a bit of what they do. Seems very "Christian" like to me, minus the crazy costumes. These are people who were tired of talking about doing something, tired of talking about how bad it is, and actually got up and did something, and having a little fun while they're at it.
So next time you see someone in the park who looks like they could use a break, or a little old lady who just can't make it across the road, go ahead, be a superhero. You'll feel pretty good about it, and you don't even have to wear spandex to do it!
