Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“As I read Free People , I am reminded once again that the strong and rich maintain power and wealth because they/we have the power and wealth to do so. Furthermore, we have convinced ourselves that God intends it to be this way. How easy and convenient it is to overlook the gentle voice that is present to tell us that the poor are honorable. Tricia Gates Brown's response to the global economy has at its core an enormously helpful rendering of biblical insights on economics, reminding us of what is truly important in economic affairs, and leading us through the challenges of responding personally to the unsettling realities of global economics.”
