Publisher Description: It is the belief of this author that the church and any Christian based organization must have social gospel activism as part of a re-entry program to make any permanent behavior changes; otherwise we ignore the very principles of our Christian faith. As concerned people and Christians, we as individuals and as servants of Christ are called to help prepare the marginalized, the oppressed, and the disconnected men and women in our society to become productive contributors. But how? Urban Ministry by Rev. Dr. Jamesetta Ferguson describes the methods, techniques, approaches and effectiveness of a seven week program using a holistic approach to the program including Christian principles, intentional nurturing, accountability and mentoring. |
