When Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty Without Hurting the Poor... and Yourself


Description

Churches and individual Christians typically have faulty assumptions about the causes of poverty, resulting in the use of strategies that do considerable harm to poor people and themselves. Don't let this happen to you, your ministry or ministries you help fund! A must read for "anyone" who works with the poor or in missions, "When Helping Hurts" provides foundational concepts, clearly articulated general principles and relevant applications. The result is an effective and holistic ministry to the poor, not a truncated gospel. "Initial thoughts" at the beginning of chapters and "reflection questions and excercises" at the end of chapters assist greatly in learning and applying the material. A situation is assessed for whether relief, rehabilitation, or development is the best response to a situation. Efforts are characterized by an "asset based" approach rather than a "needs based" approach. Short term mission efforts are addressed and economic development strategies appropriate for North American and international contexts are presented, including microenterprise development.Now with a new preface, a new foreword, and a new chapter to assist in the next steps of applying the book's principles to your situation, "When Helping Hurts" is a new classic!

As the fairy horde prepares for invasion, Tiffany must summon all the witches to stand with her. To protect the land. Her land. Just like kids, dinosaurs have a difficult time learning to behave at the table. However, with a little help from Mom and Dad, these young dinosaurs eat all before them with smiles and goodwill. Very highly recommended' SYDNEY'S CHILD 'This is a charming, funny and reassuring story for littlies to follow the going-to-bed ritual ...Recommended' MAGPIES 'Watts knows how to break up a story's rhythm by using a refrain, making a story which will be read again and again. Watson's Unseen Academicals: (Discworld Novel 37) download ebook mice are individuals and the many untold stories in the pictures will be pored over by avid three and four-year-old listeners.' WEST AUSTRALIAN 'The collaboration of writer and illustrator in this case makes for an almost perfect bedtime book. Watts's words sing with rhyme and repetition, making them excellent linguistic tools for small children, while Watson's impish, affectionate illustrations speak to families from every type of background.' JUDGES' COMMENTS, 2012 PRIME MINISTER'S LITERARY AWARDS
