Acerca de esta escucha
The Crisis of Dependency shows how everyone can claim their birthright of dignity, hope, and freedom.—Kris Mauren, President and Cofounder, Acton Institute
This book will change your life, make you a better person, and enable you to be a more powerful asset in your community.—Tarren Bragdon, President and CEO, Foundation for Government Accountability
In The Crisis of Dependency, you’ll uncover the deeper issues that keep millions of Americans trapped in chronic poverty and homelessness. You'll learn how well-intended programs often erode self-determination and fail to restore dignity—and how growing government intervention displaces more effective, personal forms of charity. The final chapters offer practical ideas that bring hope for individuals and communities ready to reverse the current crisis of dependency. This is the book every true humanitarian has been waiting for.—Lawrence W. Reed, President Emeritus, Foundation for Economic Education
The Crisis of Dependency will provide a breakthrough in your thinking, helping you move from perpetuating dependency to practicing charity that leads to real freedom.—Tom De Vries, President and CEO, Citygate Network
About the Author: James Whitford earned his doctorate from the University of Kansas Medical Center before he and his wife, Marsha, founded Watered Gardens Ministries in 2000. In 2012, they launched True Charity, a local initiative that grew into a national training organization championing the resurgence of civil society in the fight against poverty.
Their work has been featured in The Heritage Foundation’s Index of Culture and Opportunity, The Christian Post, The Hill, and WORLD News Group, which honored Watered Gardens with the 2019 Hope Award. James has testified before the U.S. Senate and House subcommittees on poverty and welfare reform, advocating a shift from harmful handouts to effective, relational charity.
