Pages : 174
Book Description
Excerpt from Wesley as Sociologist Theologian, Churchman How can we help but be drawn out to that little, restless man of the eighteenth century, with his noble enthusiasms, his practical temper, his cool head, his sane and wise methods, who combined as few other men have ever done devotion to the largeness of God's truth as he saw it with ethical passion, and so comes before us in the unique role of both a religious and theological, and moral, reformer? A social reformer in the same sense he was not. It is, rather only indirectly, as the outcome of his zeal for Christian faith and life, that he appears in these sociological relations, or as inheriting the love of order of his ancestors that he comes out with his conservative views of politics and thus actually exercised a steadying influence upon public life.

When Helping Hurts
Author: Steve Corbett
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802487629
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 355
Book Description
With more than 450,000 copies in print, When Helping Hurts is a paradigm-forming contemporary classic on the subject of poverty alleviation. 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. Focusing on both North American and Majority World contexts, When Helping Hurts provides proven strategies for effective poverty alleviation, catalyzing the idea that sustainable change comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out.

Faith-Based Organizations in Development Discourses and Practice
Author: Jens Koehrsen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000734641
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Exploring faith-based organizations (FBOs) in current developmental discourses and practice, this book presents a selection of empirical in-depth case-studies of Christian FBOs and assesses the vital role credited to FBOs in current discourses on development. Examining the engagement of FBOs with contemporary politics of development, the contributions stress the agency of FBOs in diverse contexts of development policy, both local and global. It is emphasised that FBOs constitute boundary agents and developmental entrepreneurs: they move between different discursive fields such as national and international development discourses, theological discourses, and their specific religious constituencies. By combining influxes from these different contexts, FBOs generate unique perspectives on development: they express alternative views on development and stress particular approaches anchored in their theological social ethics. This book should be of interest to those researching FBOs and their interaction with international organizations, and to scholars working in the broader areas of religion and politics and politics and development.
