Spare me a few precious moments of your time, Reframing the Crisis: The Theology of Disease. 

“We have been lied to. Told poverty is ‘God’s test’ – a twisted theology that confuses Divine mystery with human cruelty. Let me dismantle the heresy:

Poverty is  – “a theft of sacred potential.” - 
Disease is – “a rebellion against the Image of God in every soul.”
Cure is – “not charity, but repentance: the dismantling of idols of greed and the resurrection of systems that honor the sacredness of all life.”
If a plague struck 1 in 8 Americans, we’d call it a national emergency. 
Yet poverty – a plague devouring “millions” – is met with folded hands and fatalism. “No more.”  “Today, we declare: This ends here.”
