God and Money: Book Review

What is money? How can more of it be gotten? The authors of the book “God and Money,” both Harvard MBAs, have investigated, with the dispassionate eyes of scholars of such matters, the question of money, but from, however, a longitudinal study of this subject in the Bible. The result is a passionate answer to the question, phrased in Schaefferian fashion, of “How shall we then give?”  I found this volume to be very comprehensive, and, in fact, holistic, since it did not look only at proportional giving and its blessings, but at the whole of the wealth of a Christian believer, including spending, and the timing of spending on essentials, on entertainment, travel, the paying down of loans, the leaving of inheritances, the aid one might provide to children, and so on.   It also dealt with bang for the buck issues in giving to missions and other worthy causes.  Like others, the authors deal,also, with the question of putting a cap on income.  A guilt-free treatment of this subject: enjoy!
I received an advance copy of this book in return for a dispassionate review.
