This book asks "Why does Christian ethics so rarely tackle the question of whether to give to beggars?" It examines classical economics, Christian stewardship and the roots of the term "stewardship". It reveals modern anxiety about dependence and humility and stresses the importance of Christian attempts to re-imagine property relations in ways that integrate those qualities.
