How do churches hurt through their helping? Season 7 Episode 6

Brian Fikkert, author of When Helping Hurts and the founder and director of Chalmers Center for Economic Development, joins Terry and Alan for a conversation about helping people in poverty. Brian encourages churches and leaders to recognize that simply providing material goods often hurts more than it helps because it doesn’t develop people. Brian provides insight about how to bring economic development and holistic transformation in our efforts to show mercy and how we can fulfill Isaiah 58 in “spending yourselves in behalf of the hungry.”
