Remember the Poor: Cultivating a Heart of Generosity
In a world of abundance marked by persistent need, how should Christians think about responsibility toward the poor? Smith calls believers to examine their hearts and habits in the light of Scripture, showing that care for the poor is not a peripheral concern but a central expression of faithful stewardship, justice, and love of neighbor.
With pastoral wisdom and biblical clarity, Smith addresses the complex realities behind poverty while grounding every discussion in the mercy and provision of God. Neither simplistic nor sentimental, this book invites individuals and churches to move beyond guilt or indifference toward a joyful, sustained life of generosity that honors Christ and serves the vulnerable.

"Have you ever seen someone on the side of the road asking for money and your first thought is either "I wish that I could help but I can't" or "I wish that beggar would just go away"? If so, Remember the Poor will grow your compassion and capacity to serve. Remember the Poor is a bold action-plan for God's people, a faithful reminder of our Lord's heart for the sufferer, and a call to lament for the complex ways sin leads to suffering.
