“It is a sinful abomination for one part of the world's Christians to grow richer year by year while our brothers and sisters ache and suffer for lack of minimal health care, minimal education, and even—in some cases—enough food to escape starvation.”
Ronald J. Sider“God thundered again and again through the prophets that worship in the context of mistreatment of the poor and disadvantaged is an outrage.”
Ronald J. Sider, Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger: Moving from Affluence to Generosity“It is a sinful abomination for one part of the world's Christians to grow richer year by year while our brothers and sisters ache and suffer for lack of minimal health care, minimal education, and even—in some cases—enough food to escape starvation.”
Ronald J. Sider, Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger: Moving from Affluence to Generosity“What an ironic tragedy that an affluent, “Christian” minority in the world continues to hoard its wealth while hundreds of millions of people hover on the edge of starvation!”
Ronald J. Sider, Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger: Moving from Affluence to Generosity“God's Word teaches a very hard, disturbing truth. Those who neglect the poor and the oppressed are really not God's people at all—no matter how frequently they practice their religious rituals nor how orthodox are their creeds and confessions.”
Ronald J. Sider, Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger: Moving from Affluence to Generosity“Dare we care at all about current fashions if that means reducing our ability to help hungry neighbors? How many more luxuries should we buy for ourselves and our children when others are dying for lack of bread?”
