Patti welcomes Catholic priest Father Robert Sirico, the author of The Economics of the Parables. This very popular book parallels the economics of 2000 years ago with today's economy, as told through the parables of the Old Testament. Patti notes in their discussion that while 2000 years of history have certainly lifted the standard of living, the moral decisions we make every day remain the same and have stood the test of time. Father Sirico's book outlines each of the 13 parables and reveals that the lessons Jesus taught over 2000 years ago are just as valuable and relevant today.
