WALKING WITH THE POOR Principles and Practices of Transformational Development

Abstract

This book is a masterpiece of integration and application in thinking about Christian ministry. The author draws widely on the best Christian and scientific sources on introducing changes in human societies and forms solid conclusions based on what we have learned from experience in development ministries around the world. He develops a solid, scripturally based framework, or theoretical structure that challenges the spiritual/natural dualism which pervades our Western worldview and that offers a consistent biblical worldview in its place. He shows how the vision of Christian ministry can be implemented in transformational development that is truly transformational in the full sense of the world, and development in that the transformations are lasting and profound.
