Webinar 1: Getting our Story StraightEvery poverty alleviation effort embodies a theory of change—a story about what the goal is and how to get there. But what if we have the wrong story? What if our notions of human flourishing are shaped more by the world than by the only story that actually works…the story of change of the Triune God? Based on the book Becoming Whole: Why the Opposite of Poverty isn’t the American Dream by Brian Fikkert and Kelly Kapic, this webinar compares the false stories that have done harm to all of us—whether rich or poor—and encourages us to live into the only story that is actually true.

Webinar 2: Designing Ministries that Live into God's Theory of Change
|
Poverty alleviation is about promoting positive change—helping materially poor individuals and communities move from their current situation to a better one. While there is no one-size-fits-all recipe, there are practical things we can do to design ministries that are consistent with God’s theory of change—the only theory that actually works in His new creation. Based on the book A Field Guide to Becoming Whole: Principles for Poverty Alleviation Ministries by Brian Fikkert and Kelly Kapic, this webinar introduces 20 ministry design principles that seem to be consistent with God’s supernatural redeeming story.
