the point i'm trying to make is, if the church should be concerned for the welfare of the poor and seek to change the structures of society that keep the poor oppressed, what kind of social change would you seek to implement?
it is hard to imagine the need for change in an affluent society but if you lived in a poor area or in africa or latin america where the context is different. i think you would have a different point of view.
examples of church programs like nursery, preschool, tutoring, drug rehab, voter registration, demonstrating for worker rights to unionize etc these are things the church should be doing to better the life of the kingdom and if the church should come to power it should advocate for those policies which most help the poor.
if you were in charge of a poor country, what policies would you advocate?
