SUMMARY:The Gift of Disillusionment
DESCRIPTION:Around the world\, discouragement erodes the vitality of Christian organizations. Visionaries often succumb to cynicism. Zealous advocates give up. Leaders coast as their passion for the cause grows cold. \nGrounded in deep research\, The Gift of Disillusionment: Enduring Hope for Leaders After Idealism Fades invites followers of Jesus to sustain hope in long-term service. It’s about moving past the false hope of idealism and the faint hope of disillusionment to discover true Christian hope. \nJoin the Acton Institute and gain encouragement through the study of the book of Jeremiah\, which is woven throughout The Gift of Disillusionment\, as the authors Peter Greer and Chris Horst explore how the Lord prophetically met and sustained Jeremiah during his lifetime of faithfulness despite nothing going as he had hoped. Glean further inspiration by reading the stories of Christian leaders from Zimbabwe\, Haiti\, Guatemala\, Poland\, Palestine\, the Philippines\, India\, Zambia\, and Lebanon\, for this is the moment when we need the global Church’s perspective and influence.

SUMMARY:Saving & Poverty: How Savings Banks & Credit Unions Help Prevent Poverty
DESCRIPTION:Developing a culture of saving is key to poverty prevention\, as it encourages self-help\, prudence\, independence\, and personal responsibility. \nThe Acton Institute will consider how local\, self-governed\, voluntary savings associations and banks encourage these virtues. It will also look at some historical examples from Victorian England\, reflecting on ideas of locality\, self-governance\, and self-help. Do trends in the direction of large\, national\, even global banking institutions best serve these ideals? And what are the implications of the loss of diversity in institutional and local provisions for personal saving? Finally\, what does all this tell us about the nature of civil society? \nRevd Dr Richard Turnbull\, PhD\, CA.\nCentre for Enterprise\, Markets and Ethics\nDIRECTOR\n\nRev.
