The Healing Power of Economics

The so-called “dismal science” is a powerful tool for wealth creation, but also for healing broken communities.I open my car door, sit down, and turn the key. Carefully balancing my coffee, I put my foot on the brake, shift into reverse, and gently press the gas pedal as I pull out of my driveway on […]

The Resurrection of Place

Places, like people, can die. Cities die because of purposelessness, but they grow through love and hope. The practice of resurrecting life in a city starts in the heart of God’s people, having a hope for its future.

The Miracle of the Reformers: Why Teaching Your Kids Hymns is Good for the Economy

Perhaps the songs we teach our children is one the most important legacies we can leave for posterity. This morning I sat down to breakfast with my wife and four daughters.

The Quiet Unraveling of Work in America

On August 1, 2007, the I35W Mississippi River bridge in Minneapolis looked like any other bridge in America. Commuters stuck in rush hour were waiting impatiently, talking on their phones and assuming they would get safely to their destination. Yet at 6:05 p.m., a strange noise was heard lurking underneath.

The Offensive Generosity of God

The parables of Jesus have a way of pulling off the veil and revealing what we really love and care about.  They often challenge our deeply held beliefs.  This is especially true of Jesus’ “Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard” in Matthew 20: 1-16.    Jesus tells the story of a landowner who goes […]

Radicalized by Gratitude

The parable of the prodigal son has a lot to teach us.  It can profoundly impact how we view relationships, forgiveness, repentance, pride, and the nature of God’s grace.  But it should also instruct us in another way, by making us consider how we should think about money.     In Jesus’ parable, the younger son […]
