In this new volume for the Practices of Faith Series, Douglas Hicks looks at how Christian faith applies to economic life--spending, saving, giving, etc., especially as an alternative to a life of unbridled consumerism. This book offers reflections for people of faith and other curious readers who want to connect their Monday through Saturday lives with their faith and live a more integrated Christian life. It offers choices beyond adopting the so-called "prosperity gospel" of some popular evangelical preachers on the one hand or going for a determined "opting out" on the other--or just ignoring the implications of how our economic lives have spiritual consequences. In this especially perilous economic time, Hicks' level-headed, thoughtful reflections on Christian practices of getting and spending will be particularly welcome to readers of all ages and Christian denominations.
