That is the basic question that this book grapples with. While world governments and organizations such as the United Nations can work to improve poor people's access to education, healthcare and other social amenities, individuals too have a critical role to play in overcoming poverty. This book highlights proven biblical principles and lifestyle changes that individuals can embrace in order to overcome poverty. In this book, you will find tips on time management, saving, investment, budgeting, sound work ethic, debt management, and how to live with contentment, among other topics.
