商品簡介
Wondering about the propriety of wealth is fitting when economic inequality is regularly an issue. Some consider riches quite desirable. Others say that notable wealth is a personal and social blight. Christians may duly ponder whether riches are a blessing or a yoke. This book forthrightly acknowledges biblically based reservations among Christians regarding possessions. But it further affirms the respectability if not the suitability of virtuously acquiring and deploying substantial financial assets. In its pages sacred scripture, spirituality, and theology are readably considered. The main part of the book colorfully depicts laypersons of various historical eras. These seven women and nine men have gained recognition and invited emulation. They modeled practical faith, charity, and exemplary citizenship that promoted justice in their worlds. Their spiritualties, entrepreneurial talents, and managerial strategies affirm many generous persons today.
