068 | A Christian View of Economics and Wealth💰 ft. Jonathan Wellum

THEOTIVITY | Theology, Creativity & Culture

With economic recession, inflation and increasing national debt, how are Christians supposed to think about their money and building wealth to leave an inheritance? In this episode, we interview Jonathan Wellum from Rocklinc Investment Partners Inc. on how God's Law helps us understand economics from a Christian perspective. He talks about how the Bible's economic principles help build strong economies, the problems with inflationary fiat currency, and what's the better (more Biblical) alternative. We also talk about how Christian entrepreneurs can build thriving businesses even in a time of economic hardship and how Christians in full-time ministry can build equity and wealth. Finally, Jonathan exposes some of the most common misconceptions about economics and gives some advice on how pastors can help equip their flocks to think Christianly about economics.
