Ron Sider. In the late 1960’s, faced with the glaring needs and blatant injustice of the inner city, Ronald Sider began to work toward developing a biblical response to social injustice. In 1977, Ron’s ground-breaking book, Rich Christians in an Age of Hunger, was published. Hailed by Christianity Today as one of the 100 most influential books in religion in the twentieth century, Rich Christians has sold over 400,000 copies. Among his many books are Living Like Jesus (1999); Just Generosity: A New Vision for Overcoming Poverty in America (1999-2006); The Scandal of the Evangelical Conscience (2005); and The Scandal of Evangelical Politics (2008).
