Have you ever pondered the relationship between faith and economics?
In The Christian Capitalist, you are invited to explore this relationship in depth and examine
two core Christian values: hard work and generosity.
Through a blend of scripture and real world history, we will uncover a philosophy that's both
traditional and applicable to modern capitalism. Join us on this enlightening journey as we delve into the Gospel of Hard Work and Generous Giving - a perspective that is sure to engage and challenge you!
As a campus pastor who serves students, I understand how young adults often feel pressured to find their worth in successful, well-paying careers. But The Christian Capitalist affirms instead that as people created in God's good image, our worth is rooted first in Jesus' free gift of grace for us rather than material possessions. Such abundant grace also empowers us to "act as Christ to our neighbors," as we give generously to others and put their needs before our own. I am eager to share this book with students who are discerning how their vocations in the world might best serve God and their neighbors.

As a small business owner, my husband and I have experienced both success and challenges. The Christian Capitalist reminded me that going to church isn’t the only way to worship God. By working hard and giving to others, I share the blessings God has given to me and my family with others.

I have always tried to work hard and earn as much as I possibly can to provide a comfortable living and secure future for my family. The Christian Capitalist encouraged me to keep doing that but recognize that every successful financial plan encourages us to earn all we can, save all we can, then give all we can!

The Christian Capitalist takes a fresh view of Holy Scripture and how it addresses work, wealth, and giving. It endeavors to set a new tone for Christian philanthropy in the 21st-Century, and it provides a helpful framework for those who are “spiritual but are not necessarily religious” but still may want to give generously to the church and/or poor and needy in their communities.
