Abstract
Most churches are filled with deeply compassionate people and most of our streets, workplaces, holiday locations, volunteer groups, retirement activities and schools are populated with broken people.
Alongsiders is all about bringing these two worlds together, building trust and making a difference. It's about empowering everyday God-hearted people in our churches to take up the challenge and walk alongside the broken and vulnerable for as long as needed.
Mick Duncan gives practical advice on spotting vulnerable, bypassed and needy people in your existing sphere of influence, and building a practical and loving relationship that invests in their lives over a set period.
