Biblical Economics 86: Secular Capitalism vs Christian Capitalism

Note: this is not to say that mentioning Matthew 7:12 in a cover letter is a cure-all to a perfect Christian job situation, but its a start in the right direction. You’ll still run across a lot of worldly-mindedness with people; but especially if you work at home, you’ll feel more in control of your personal ethics, and less pressure to compromise with the world.

For more about Christian capitalism, see ch. 5 in Richard Bayer’s Capitalism and Christianity.

For an example of a secularist writer who is against Christian corporations existing such as Hobby Lobby, see Matthew Stewart’s “Hobby Lobby and the Separation of Church and Business,” in Harvard Business Review.
