    Description

    This literature review of sociology, anthropology, and psychology asks about how material and monetary poverty is addressed by Christianity and Judaism. The purpose was to explore how religious groups alleviate poverty and what their perspective is in regard to impoverished communities. We compared articles in various social disciplines about the prevalence of poverty in different religions. From our research, we found that these religions cope and view poverty in different ways. This is relevant because poverty is a real and growing issue around the world and individuals look to religion as a way to cope with their hardships.
