Description
Global Poverty: A Theological Guide explores the complex relationship between faith and poverty. Justin Thacker offers a new perspective on the issue, examining the theological underpinnings of approaches to global poverty and challenging readers to consider the implications of their attitude towards those living in extreme poverty.
This book is a call to theologians, church leaders and congregations to think more deeply about the role of faith in addressing global poverty. Thacker argues that traditional solutions are often based on incomplete or superficial understanding of the issue, and seeks to provide a more nuanced and thoughtful approach.
