FAITHFUL FINANCES 101: FROM THE POVERTY OF FEAR AND GREED TO THE RICHES OF SPIRITUAL INVESTING

Book ID/图书代码： 12686004B00646

English Summary/英文概要： A resource for integrating faith and finances, Faithful Finances 101 is a first-person narrative by an outspoken advocate of faith-based investing. Financial counselor Gary Moore strips the veneer from evangelical views of the illusions that dominated much of the economic scenes of the last two decades and offers, with "hopeful realism," a guide to true riches based on a biblical worldview.
Moore moves from frank observations on religious pride to a discussion of making money but losing faith. He sees faith as integral to each and every aspect of investing. Using the financial teachings of the Judeo-Christian Scriptures, he shows people how to take sound but fragmented ideas about modern political, economic, and theological reality and mold them into a coherent whole. He cites people he respects, including Henri Nouwen, Chuck Colson, Sir John Templeton, and Robert Schuller.
Differentiating between having a Christian financial planner and having a Christian financial plan, Moore explains that spiritual investing connects the soul of theology, the mind of economics, and the heart of politics, freeing the spirit for "balanced riches" that benefit not only individuals but the world.
He explores the Scriptures, pointing out guidance offered by the patriarchs and prophets, as well as the financial challenges of the gospels. With this Biblical foundation, he then presents a vision for true wealth n the Third Millennium.
Faithful Finances features a forward by Sir John Templeton.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 作者认为，在大部分基督教世界里，有一种事实上的金钱崇拜，赚钱本身被看作是成功，这是不对的，是与圣经伦理不符的。他认为，人们的一切最终都属于上帝，人们应当充分利用自己的时间，才能和财富去赚钱，但赚钱的目的是为了上帝的荣耀，为了别人和我们自己的利益，应当把理财和崇高的精神联系起来。
