Serving Others

<p>Serving Others: A Sociological Ethical and Theological Reflection on Poverty Diakonia and Transformational Development</p><p> </p><p><em>Serving Others</em> is more than a research-based theological contribution—it’s a powerful call to action backed by God’s word.</p><p>John E. Koenig PhD and Fr. John F. Kamwendo ThD prove with Scripture passages quotes from scholars philosophers theologians and an edifying case study that God expects us to liberate and empower others particularly those who are poor vulnerable and disenfranchised. Koenig and Kamwendo also offer concrete suggestions for how Christians and non-Christians alike business and government leaders and professors and students of theology can help others through <em>diakonia</em> (service) and transformational development. The authors stress the assurance that under God’s guiding hand each of us can and should provide selfless acts of kindness and mercy in the process raising others up to eventually help themselves and others in an ongoing circle of compassion.</p>
