(Quotes: “Poverty is not so much the absence of goods as it is the absence of power – the capability of being able to change one’s situation.” and “If the church is to live, it will have to find some ways reaching out to its neighborhood. So the church begins to become concerned about its city, its neighborhood and its problems. This, of course, is a much more holistic approach because of the recognition that the church must be present to the people around it and must be concerned both with evangelism and social action.”
