We need this book now.

Rick Steves, American Travel Writer and TV Host

David Beckmann always connects facts to faith. He tracks the reduction of poverty in recent decades and directly relates it to the moving of a loving God in history. He documents how the US government is now making life harder and even deadly for poor and hungry people; and hears a call from God to push back. David Beckmann's book will help people move from discouragement to becoming faithful poverty abolitionists.

Jim Wallis, author of the New York Times Bestseller The False White Gospel

In Poverty Abolitionists, David Beckmann shares lessons from his leadership of Bread for the World over many years. He also discusses an inspiring array of other ways that people are helping to move us toward the abolition of hunger and poverty.

Eugene Cho, President, Bread for the World

Poverty Abolitionists explores a range of effective strategies to renew progress against hunger and poverty. Together, these efforts form a powerful and growing movement.

Eric Mitchell, President, Alliance to End Hunger

We need to act now to defend democracy and protect vulnerable people. We also need to raise up and make room for leadership from younger generations. Poverty Abolitionists will help us on both fronts.
