Why the Poor.
As you read these passages, you will very likely feel a good deal of resistance or indifference. Our First World lifestyle has departed strongly from Biblical values that we say we believe in, and we have even created rationalizations like — “the prosperity theology”– “the faith without works theology” –” I support my Church theology”– and
overlooking and forgetting the passages that challenge us about the poor. It takes time and reflection to get past these misconceptions.

The Bible contains more than 400 verses on the poor, social justice, and God’s deep concern for both. This is why at P4K, we do, what we do.
