“Evangelism is the most loving thing we can do — even more loving than helping a person out of poverty.” Kirsten Birkett

“Pastoral care must be attentive to people’s background… helping people belong in the community.” Kirsten Birkett

Pastoral implications

“The biblical vision of the eschaton… provides our hope and framework for addressing class issues. There may be stratification in heaven, but no envy, no coveting — because it is sin that makes class division a problem.” Kirsten Birkett

“What if evangelicals took the conscious decision to move house and plant churches where the unreached people are — to council estates or awkward rural areas."

Planting and contextual ministry

“Christian values are often conflated with middle-class values. We must stop conflating Christian morality with middle-class niceness.” Kirsten Birkett

Church culture and ethics

“Paul advocates radical unity in Christ — transcending the economic and social barriers… The distinctions still exist, but in terms of the gospel they don’t matter.” Kirsten Birkett

“Jesus’ ministry is marked by a radical inclusivity and a challenge to social norms… he associates with tax collectors and sinners, and demonstrates that the kingdom of God transcends social and economic barriers.” Kirsten Birkett

Biblical teaching on class and wealth
