Justice for the Poor Group Bible Study by Jim Wallis and Sojourners

Justice for the Poor Group Bible Study by Jim Wallis and Sojourners. In Justice for the Poor Group Bible Study by Jim Wallis and Sojourners, learn to respond in faith to poverty in your area and around the world.

"When the wealthy are dying from diseases of overabundance and the poor are dying from inadequate health care, poor diets, and stress-related illnesses, there is spiritual disease in society."

Justice for the Poor recaptures the biblical vision that links poverty with justice. Jesus' life and teaching shows a deep compassion toward the poor and marginalized. His messages often highlight the injustices done to the poor and the prejudices the well-off have against them. How can we learn from the poor? What is our responsibility to care for the poor and to advocate for justice on their behalf?

In this six-session DVD, designed for use with the Justice for the Poor Participant's Guide, Jim Wallis and Sojourners will engage your small group to take action.

1. Burger King Mom: Being Poor in America
2. Is There Something Wrong With the Prosperity Gospel?
