4 FUNDAMENTAL RELATIONSHIPS
A Holistic Approach to Addressing Poverty.
Poverty stems from a disruption in four fundamental relationships: with God, Self, Others, and Work. We all experience these broken relationships in a sinful world. We believe that only Jesus can truly renew and restore these relationships within us — leading to transformation that goes beyond material needs.
