Poverty And The Protestant Work Ethic

David DiCanio has lived in Africa for seven years. When he first arrived he was struck by the poverty all around him. But then, he saw a poor beggar throw out his balance of rice after finishing his meal. This started DiCanio on a journey to discover the biblical definition of true poverty, and led him down a path to address the issues surrounding affirmative action, apartheid, democracy, and the protestant work ethic.

In this message DiCanio addresses these issues from Proverbs 14:34 – “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”
