Description

It is often claimed that local churches provide a significant proportion of social care today.

This important new study considers the reality of the church's involvement to offer compelling and concrete recommendations for the future.

It proposes a transformational model of welfare that breaks free from the default approach of 'eradicating the five giant evils - squalor, ignorance, want, idleness, and disease'.

Instead the authors focus on fostering five assets - relationship, creativity, partnership, compassion, and joy - and empowering people to regain control of their lives.
