It's great to read a book about poverty and injustice that gives a call for action instead of a reason to feel guilty. The statistics are absolutely staggering. We must respond to God's call to take care of the poor, the orphan and the widow.

This book challenges Christians to take the Bible seriously when it tells us to care for the needy. The story of Mr. Stearns' journey from corporate America to president of World Vision is extremely compelling and genuine. The hole in our gospel is that we have generally neglected caring for the very poor. Stearns points out that this is not a side issue for God--it is central to our faith. Read and be challenged.
