xv, 140 pages ; 23 cm "The church is facing a strategic opportunity -- 85 percent of people living in extreme poverty around the world reside in villages. These villages are also home to the majority of the world's least-reached people. The church has historically played an active role in wholistic ministry and alleviating global poverty with a goal of encouraging sustainable community development. However, while these outreaches may succeed in "helping without hurting", they still often focus on limited-scope projects that provide good solutions to a single community."--Page 4 of cover Answering the call -- Accelerating change for the poor -- Change begins here -- Changing together -- Change that God intends -- Change that multiplies -- Change that informs and inspires: stories of transformation -- Models, clusters, and tipping points -- Be part of the change -- What others are saying about CHE -- Brief history of community health evangelism.
