Money, Greed, and God: Why Capitalism Is the Solution and Not the Problem

The good news about capitalism

Jay Richards presents a new approach to capitalism, revealing how it's fully consistent with Jesus's teachings and the Christian tradition—and our best bet for renewed economic vigor.

Money, Greed, and God exposes eight myths about capitalism—including the notion that capitalism is based on greed—and demonstrates that a good Christian can be a good capitalist.

Richards argues against the current dualistic view Christianity has cast on capitalism-all good or all evil-and reveals the surprising ways that capitalism is actually the best way to follow Jesus’s mandates to alleviate poverty and protect our earth.
