Money is not a side topic in Scripture — it’s one of the most frequently addressed subjects in the entire Bible. In the Gospels alone, an astonishing one out of every ten verses deals directly with it. That’s 288 verses. God clearly intends for His people to understand economics — not as a secular discipline disconnected from faith, but as an area of life governed by His principles and wisdom.

Yet most Christians today have never examined economics through a biblical lens. Many have absorbed ideas about wealth, poverty, and government without realizing that those ideas come from worldviews that directly contradict Scripture. Is socialism taught in the Bible? How do the principles of socialism compare to those of free market economics — and why does one system consistently produce prosperity while the other produces poverty and oppression? This booklet answers these questions with clarity, using Scripture, history, and real-world evidence to show that the economic principles God laid out in His Word aren’t just morally right — they work.

Great for Small Groups & Individual Study

Extracted from our You Are What You Think textbook series, each 40–50 page booklet focuses on one key topic, helping small groups, families, and individuals apply Scripture to today’s toughest cultural questions, and focuses on one of the twelve biblical worldview topics:

Politics, Sociology, Education, What IS a Worldview?, Psychology, Science, Economics, History, Law, Theology, Philosophy, and Ethics.

Designed for home groups, youth groups, adult Sunday school classes, and one-on-one discipleship, these concise booklets are affordable, easy to read in 1–2 sittings, and ideal for sparking rich discussion around today’s cultural and “hot-button” issues. Use them on their own or pair them with the corresponding “You Are What You Think” videos for a complete, lesson-by-lesson small group experience.

Video Lessons Also Available

The video lessons for this subject are available for purchase separately for $10 or together with the booklet. These are the same video teachings included in our complete “You Are What You Think” Biblical Worldview Curriculum — short, engaging segments designed to walk you through each lesson in the booklet. Access to the videos will be provided after purchase. Pair the videos with your booklet for a complete, lesson-by-lesson study experience perfect for small groups, families, or individual study.

4. How do these booklets help with “competing worldviews”?
