YOU WERE CALLED TO THIS WORK-BUT ARE YOU PREPARED TO SURVIVE IT?
Many books explain what to do about poverty. Few speak to
how to keep going-without burning out.
In
Redemptive Poverty Work, Alvin Sanders draws on over 30 years of experience to offer a path forward for faith-based leaders, nonprofit workers, pastors, and everyday servants walking with the poor. With honesty and hope, he introduces a practical framework-what he calls a "three-legged stool"-to help you stay rooted, resilient, and redemptive for the long haul:
-
Spiritual formation that grounds your identity in Christ, not performance
-
Practices to sustain you through stress, discouragement, and exhaustion
-
Essential skills for leading well in complex, hurting communities
Whether you're feeling weary or just getting started, this book is an invitation to re-cover your soul, renew your call, and lead with love that lasts.
You don't have to burn out to make a difference. There is another way. ALVIN SANDERS serves as president and CEO of World Impact. With over 30 years of ministry experience, he has planted churches, led nonprofit initiatives, and trained leaders across the country. He holds multiple graduate degrees and is passionate about equipping redemptive poverty workers for sustainable, Christ-centered service.
