Can helping actually hurt? 

Dr. Brian Fikkert talks about the difference between empowering and enabling those in need—and why poverty is about more than a lack of possessions. 

Fikkert coauthored "When Helping Hurts" and "Becoming Whole," books that have transformed how churches and organizations approach poverty. He is the Founder of the Chalmers Center for Economic Development and Professor of Economics and Community Development at Covenant College. He holds a Ph.D. in economics from Yale University.
