COMMUNITY REVIEWS
from a Christian point of view submitted by 21621031390949 on August 11, 2016, 8:48pm I was interested in reading something about the harm that can be done in charity work, but I was disappointed to find how focused this book is on a Christian perspective. It is written particularly for Christian church organizations who do service work.
