He clearly and concisely examines what Jesus and his earliest followers taught about wealth and poverty, money and debt, and tithing and sacrificial giving to help readers understand the proper role of money in modern Christian life. At a time when money issues at the forefront of many people's concerns, this is a book for church study groups, ministers, church leaders, students, and all who are concerned about making sense of money in a world of economic uncertainty. ""This book is like a theological cagematch--Jesus and Mammon go head to head. Witherington offers a smart, witty, bold corrective to the prosperity gospel. Rooted in Scripture and church history, Jesus and Money will help us all navigate the narrow way to life, regardless of whether Wall Street flounders or flourishes. After all, as Ben reminds us, God's dream looks pretty different from Wall Street's dream.""--Shane Claiborne,</abstract> <note type="statement of responsibility">Ben Witherington III</note> <subject> <topic>Jesus Christ Teachings</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Economics in the Bible</topic> </subject> <subject> <topic>Money -- Biblical teaching</topic> </subject> <classification authority="ddc">261.85</classification> <classification authority="ddc">W823-B46</classification> <identifier type="isbn">9780281062546</identifier> <identifier type="uri">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14871/59.jpg</identifier> <location> <url displayLabel="Cover Image">https://data.thuviencodoc.org/books/14871/59.jpg</url> </location> <recordInfo> <recordCreationDate encoding="marc">2024-0</recordCreationDate> <recordChangeDate encoding="iso8601">20260119071420.0</recordChangeDate> </recordInfo> </mods>
