It was the best I ever read concerning the poor and poverty. So many things were new to my knowledge and when I reflect on how I have viewed the poor, I feel ashamed. but now I do not lack knowledge. From this book of Myer, I am in a better position to help people out of their poverty instead of just giving them a relief scheme for a short time. This book has really helped me to critically reflect also on the mission of God and how He was and still is concerned for the poor.
