In this book, Susan Holman looks at how the Christian tradition, ancient and modern, has contemplated the subject of poverty and encourages the reader to reflect on the social issues of injustice and need. She alternates images from late antiquity and the patristic period with stories from contemporary American life. She builds three broad paradigms: sensing the poor, sharing the world, and embodying the kingdom of heaven. Holman's embrace of the historicalperspective will prove useful in interdenominational and ecumenical dialogue on religious responses to social welfare needs.
