Rise Up & Walk: Religion and Culture in Empowering the Poor (Regnum Studies in Mission)

This remarkable book could only be written by someone unique, such as Melba Maggay herself. On every page the reader is struck by the wonderful combination of great spiritual gifts and deep practical wisdom. It is a combination that has grown from the soil of a lifelong commitment with the cause of the poor, and has been fed by a vivid interest in human culture, especially the Asian cultures now under threat of alienation or elimination. This book is a must-read for all who are longing for more responsible social, economic, and political development.
