Description
It is impossible to alleviate poverty--in its fullest sense--apart from the local church. In recent years, Christians have shown an increased commitment to helping the poor. But this renewed interest in poverty alleviation is doomed to fail if it is not rooted in the local church--God's established means of drawing downtrodden people into a transformative relationship with himself. Emphasizing the priority of the gospel, Mez McConnell and Mike McKinley, both pastors with fruitful ministries among the poor, offer biblical guidelines and practical strategies for planting, revitalizing, and growing faithful churches in hard places--in our own communities and around the world. - Published in partnership with 9Marks, a popular evangelical ministry with a large and committed following - Written by two pastors with years of experience ministering among the poor - Emphasizes the priority of evangelism without neglecting the importance of addressing issues of social justice - Includes a foreword by Brian Fikkert
