Theology and economics: caught on camera

Last updated on: April 14, 2015 at 2:14 pm By Oikonomia Network

We thought this list of videos collected by the Oikonomia Network for their members was well worth sharing with the rest of you. The faith-and-work world is still talking about the Faith@Work Summit last October, and videos of the powerful talks given at the summit are now online. Of particular interest are several talks that helped push the conversation beyond the personal, individual level of “faith and work” to talk about the social and cultural dimension of work – economics....

How to think Christianly: Storied Leadership by Brian Jensen and Keith Martel (and a long resource list on forming a Christian worldview too!)

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 6:05 pm By Byron Borger

This post originally appeared at the blog Booknotes. I can’t wait to tell you about this new book on a new indie press, written by two friends of mine. I am a huge fan of this title, but I have to set it up by saying some stuff I want to say about the recent Jubilee conference. These two authors spoke at Jubilee 2015, so, well, they won’t mind if I ruminate a bit about a key idea or two... Read more

Summer reading (another beach bag list)

Last updated on: April 7, 2015 at 1:18 pm By Patheos Faith and Work Channel

By J. B. Wood, originally published at Shrinking the Camel Like many bloggers, I like to read as well as write. We are a high-minded group of people, after all, what with our advice-giving and over-sharing and generally know-it-all approach to the world. I do a bit of each, here and there, as I find time. A little reading, a little writing. As a result of this start-stop approach to things, I usually have many books and writings all going on at the... Read more

Making friends and changing the world: Fierce Convictions by Karen Swallow Prior

Last updated on: April 7, 2015 at 1:15 pm By Guest Contributor

Thanks so much to Rebecca Florence Miller of the Evangelical Channel, who let us reprint this great review of a book we’re quite fond of at Work Cited from her blog, where it appeared during Women’s History Month. Here at the very end of Women’s History Month, we are given a great opportunity to get to know a woman who was highly influential in progressing social reforms in Western society and in the literary world but who has been all...

Saving the world and losing your mind: Runaway Radical by Amy and Jonathan Hollingsworth

Last updated on: April 4, 2015 at 12:39 pm By Byron Borger

We’ve reprinted this post from Byron Borger’s Booknotes as a contribution to the Patheos Book Club going on right now on this great book. Runaway Radical: A Young Man’s Reckless Journey to Save the World by Amy Hollingsworth and Jonathan Hollingsworth (Thomas Nelson) is a book that is very well written, exceptionally moving, of interest to many different sorts of readers, and, I think, is very, very important. I could hardly put it down, except when I had to stop... Read more

A reading list for your beach bag, once you get back to the beach

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 6:06 pm By Made to Flourish

Drew Cleveland (originally published at KPN Resources blog, July 2014) It’s summer… and that means reading lists! Here are a few recent books that I’ve found helpful for filling out the big picture of faith, work, and economics, giving me helpful stories to communicate that vision for daily faithfulness and equipping me with the tools to do it well. I hope they are helpful to you as you seek to equip your people to live out the gospel in all... Read more

Something missing: The Pleasures and Sorrows of Work by Alain de Botton

Last updated on: April 7, 2015 at 1:18 pm By Patheos Faith and Work Channel

By Glynn Young; reprinted from Shrinking the Camel, fall 2009–and still an awfully good and classic book to check out! My introduction to Alain de Botton occurred a month ago. I followed a link in a tweet on Twitter, and ending up at a YouTube video from the TED Conference in Oxford earlier this year. In the video, de Botton was speaking about our notions of what constitutes success and failure, and how we usually allow our success to be... Read more

Working for the weekend? Work Matters by Tom Nelson

Last updated on: March 3, 2015 at 12:23 pm By Oikonomia Network

This post came to us from the Oikonomia Network. Thanks, folks! By Michelle Lee-Barnewall As part of my normal teaching schedule, I have a Friday morning “block” class that meets for almost three hours. The typical response I get from most people when I tell them about the class is, “That must be difficult! The students must be really unhappy and unmotivated to be in a three-hour class on a Friday.” However, I tell them that it is a great... Read more
