A New Exodus

David Beckman, president and CEO of Bread for the World.

"Hundreds of millions of people who are desperately poor are finding ways to improve their livelihoods and feed their children," he said. But as Beckman noted, "The biggest challenge facing evangelicals is to participate in this GREAT EXODUS, to be aware God is rescuing lots of people from poverty and to help make it happen."
"I hope we see dramatic progress," Beckman said. "I hope it doesn't take 50 years."


I hope so too.
