How Lee has benefited from Faith & Money Network
Ways we've collaborated
Linking money to faith, when it affects ALL our uses of money and not just our giving, is itself a radical position.
Having this conversation while the U.S. economy is being exposed for its inability to deal with grotesque income and wealth gaps—to wit, the stock market is at all time highs but the people without work and others who are underpaid are much too high for our economy to meet the standards of faith, financial morality, or an economy to hold up as a model.
The education and training done in F&MN
Signature quote:"A change of heart or of values without a practice is only another pointless luxury of a passively consumptive way of life."- Wendell Berry. How is F&MN linking change of thinking values to change of practice?
Instances where someone's change of practice goes as far as changing the economic and faith paradigms by which they live, e.g., is Christian faith naturally linked to the values of capitalism's economic model. Do you see people shifting their faith and economic models?
