In this motivational and highly practical book, Timothy Keller shows how caring for those in need is the duty of every believer — as fundamental to Christian living as evangelism, discipleship and worship. But he doesn’t stop there. He sets out an array of tried-and-tested measures that will encourage and equip Christians of all persuasions to become more committed and more effective in carrying out this vital ministry.
