First published 2013
The world economy favors the wealthy while leaving the poor behind. Jim Wallis argues that this system contradicts divine will and presents an alternative vision. He demonstrates how biblical teachings demand economic justice rather than unchecked inequality. Wallis outlines specific principles that should shape both international and national economic policies. He connects ancient wisdom to modern financial challenges, showing readers how faith communities can advocate for systemic change. The book offers practical guidance for creating an economy that serves all people rather than concentrating wealth among elites. Wallis provides a roadmap for implementing God-centered economic values in contemporary society.
