June 14, 2025Should Christians Take Business Loans?
Can business loans be redemptive? Well, yes and no.
Whether a business loan is inflationary or non-inflationary is critical to determining if it is redemptive. The bible teaches that Inflationary debt of any kind is a form of theft.
On the other hand, non-inflationary, peer-to-peer loans can be very redemptive if they are transparent, mutually beneficial, and designed to create value for others. These kinds of loans can also be a catalyst for redemptive impact in local economies.

June 06, 2025Recent Volatility Exposing the Bondage of Bonds
The recent volatility in the bond market has been the cause of great consternation. The pain that many are feeling is the result of being in bondage to the government.
Instead of buying bonds and placing our trust in the government, Christian business leaders should be relying on God's provision and investing in value-creating businesses and ethical finance.
