{"product_id":"unto-the-least-of-these-michael-bethune-9781453859216","title":"Unto the Least of These: 12 - stages towards genuine compassion, for churches that are serious about helping the less fortunate","description":"In this thorough yet accessible resource for churches and others that are genuinely interested in helping the less fortunate, Michael Bethune presents a unique and candid look at the relationship between the church and the less fortunate as he addresses many of the issues and concerns that others have been reluctant to confront. He believes that the church and other organizations that serve the less fortunate can and must do better when it comes to how it is that we treat those that frequent our soup kitchens, clothing pantries, shelters, etc. Bethune asserts that many of today's churches have strayed far from the model of compassion that Jesus embodied and exemplified throughout His earthly ministry, a model that embraces and reaffirms the humanity of all people regardless of their social, educational, and economic location. As a result he has created a 12-stage process designed to move churches back in the right direction, back towards compassion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Bethune\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1453859217\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781453859216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/09\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 138\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.30d","brand":"Michael Bethune","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46216999665919,"sku":"9781453859216","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fdfe549c-9375-4329-844d-fba067a1c121.jpg?v=1728513980","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/unto-the-least-of-these-michael-bethune-9781453859216","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
