Poverty is much more than simply a lack of material resources, and it takes much more than donations and handouts to solve it. When Helping Hurts shows how some alleviation efforts, failing to consider the complexities of poverty, have actually (and unintentionally) done more harm than good. But it looks ahead. It encourages us to see the dignity in everyone, to empower the materially poor, and to know that we are all uniquely needy - and that God in the gospel is reconciling all things to himself.

Great content, solid principles, highly recommend

Quality content filled with principles that everyone should understand before attempting outreach to materially poor individuals or communities. The only thing this audible is lacking are pdf pages of handouts that would be helpful.
