Poor No More: Be part of a miracle - nine ways to have an impact on global poverty

by Peter Grant, James Jones (Foreword), Sarah Jones (Foreword)

This book enables Christians to assess their impact on world poverty through their current lifestyles. It then provides practical proposals for action to help reduce poverty, safeguard the environment and promote human rights. Our impact in the world results from the choices that we each make and for which we are responsible to God. The book is written from a Tearfund perspective and explains simply and clearly the causes of poverty and the action that each of us can take to change our behaviour so that we can have a positive impact. As Tearfund seeks to see a million Christians mobilised in the UK to address poverty, this book aims to be the handbook for that movement.
