Produktbeschreibung

In the U.K. today social action inspired by the desire to act justly and to love mercy is not only a vital part of society but also an aspect of local community life under immense pressure. This up to date book is both a manifesto and a practical handbook for Christian social action for people who believe that they are called, with others in their community, to serve the poor and to advance the cause of justice as part of their mission. It's for church leaders, trustees and anyone seeking to understand local needs and make a significant and sustainable difference where they are.

Autorenporträt

"Christian Social Action: Making a difference where you are" builds on the work of the Jubilee+ pioneers Martin Charlesworth and Natalie Williams in their highly recommended books on related themes: 'The Myth of the Undeserving Poor','A Church for the Poor' and 'A Call to Act'. On these foundations "Christian Social Action" summarises the biblical call to serve, lays out the increasingly urgent environment in the U.K. today, introduces several invaluable leadership tools and guides activists through the process of co-creating partnership solutions to pressing social concerns with a well led team. It is packed full of relevant research and practical guidance on identifying local needs, building a committed team, deciding how and where to do the good that's so desperately needed, measuring and reporting results, growing resources and communicating with partners and stakeholders to build support. Research based descriptions of today's growing need in household debt, food, child and housing poverty are paired with inspiring historical and up-to-date examples of Christian action.
