The recent crisis in the financial industry and global economy has revealed some of the corrupt practices in banking and investments that have helped to bring about this economic shift. As a result, Christians are faced with the moral challenge of how to react and how to rethink their participation in banking and investing. This one-session, adult study reveals some of these practices and discusses them in the historical context of usury--money lending at interest--which has historically been prohibited among Christians, Jews, and Muslims. The value of money and how to faithfully invest money are also discussed.

Martha Bettis-Gee is Associate for Child Advocacy in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).


Scott Bader- Saye is professor of Christian ethics and moral theology at the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas. He is the author of the book Following Jesus in a Culture of Fear (Brazos Press, 2007).
