Sproul offers much-needed biblical answers to these questions, and in so doing, provides clarity on an important issue in the lives of Christians.Chapters ·Taking Care of Our House ·Reasons for Poverty ·The Building of Wealth ·The Theory of Value ·What is Money? ·Inflation ·Interest ·Participating in OwnershipResourcesPart of the Crucial Questions booklet series
