In this collection of essays, sixteen evangelical scholars and teachers consider the dilemma of poverty in modern America. Brought together by a Bauman Foundation grant under Evangelicals for Social Action sponsorship, they address the historical, political, and economic issues involved in this pervasive social problem. The authors also bring Christian principles to bear on their analysis of poverty's root causes, on their consideration of policies that have been adopted or proposed, and on their own responses. Practical suggestions for concrete action are offered that warrant the consideration of churches, charitable agencies, and politicians.
