The persistence of poverty stands as a constant challenge to the Christian church. Unlike any other institution in society, the church is called by its foundational scripture and theological convictions to be brother and sister to those in need. This report explores how the contemporary church responds to this call. Against a backdrop of opinions and perspectives on poverty, the report proposes a renewed commitment to the radical compassion for the poor manifested by Jesus Christ in his teachings and life. It describes initial efforts in this direction pursued by the Threshold ministry of Decatur Presbyterian Church.
