New York Richard Stearns was a very rich and successful CEO, but he gave it all up to become the president of World Vision. This book is his story and also an account of how badly we are doing at caring for "the least of these", staving children, widows and the poor throughout the world, and the need we have for organizations like World Vision. Oh, and there are success stories of people that have been helped and disasters which have been ameliorated. I can't recommend this book strongly enough. It will break your heart and it will also encourage you and motivate you. I thank God that there are people doing what World Vision does and people like Richard Stearns. Rated: B+ Outstanding work by Richard Stearns, former head of World Vision US. He builds a very personal and factual case for aggressively attacking the problems of poverty worldwide. In is compelling for me. I saw the people of poverty up front and personal when I went to Kenya. We must awaken first world Christians to step up their help as Christ has call us to do. I recommend this book to everyone. A little preachy in spots, but an eye-opening book, especially if one has never looked at the spread of poverty on earth. Americans truly do have it better than everyone else, and insulated with our inward-looking religious tendencies, we can often forget the needs of the rest of the world. This book is a good reminder that central to the gospel is care for the poor and suffering of the world. What was most of Jesus' ministry composed of? This book provides a clear answer to that. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
