Hope Rising: How Christians Can End Extreme Global Poverty. Dr. Todd envisions, “The twenty-first-century Christians embraced the entirety of their gospel―the truths it proclaims and the muscles it demands―with a new integrity. They did not deteriorate into humanist liberalism, as some had feared. Nor did they pile works on top of Grace…They simply determined that their world did not need to have children dying of preventable causes such as dirty water.”
