Christ, the Bread of Life, taught that if we give a cup of water to the thirsty, we are actually giving it to Him. Yet all too often, Christian organizations will fall into a one-sided mission.
In Cup of Water, Bread of Life, Ron Sider documents ten ministries worldwide that help the poor and oppressed, and integrate much needed social action with evangelism. He focuses on key members of these missions, showing how they have learned from their past mistakes and how they are now impacting the world, both in word and in deed.
