God Weeps, God Laughs, God Dreams: A Vision for the End
of Poverty
By Pastor Ron Hockley
One in six of our global neighbors is desperately poor.
During this
Eastside series you’ll be invited to join God in his
weeping, his laughing and his dreaming about the
poorest of the poor. We’ll explore the harsh
reality of poverty. We’ll study the key biblical
principles on the subject. We’ll describe
Eastside’s vision of hope for the poor and share
practical ways you can make a difference.
