Poor in Spirit is a odd term that gets misused by people with social or political agendas. The best way to understand the term, Poor in Spirit, isn’t as an indicator of quantity, but rather of awareness of dependency. Someone in poor health needs the help of doctors and caregivers. Someone truly poor in wealth, not only has little, but has so little that they could not survive without the resources and grace of a community… whether civil, familial or religious.

I used to play in a band known as the Poorboys. We actually lost deals because we liked the name and its symbolism. The record people said it wasn’t in line with their prosperity gospel.
