The Pros and Cons of a Global Economy from Crossway on Vimeo.

4 Practical Ways You Can Swim against the Cultural Tide from Crossway on Vimeo.

Here are the final two videos giving you a taste of what’s in my new book, Economics: A Student’s Guide, an introduction to the history of Christian thought on economics.

From the first video:

This new world has created tremendous benefits by allowing people to connect with each other across what used to be insurmountable barriers of national difference and distance. At the same time it’s created some very difficult political challenges in holding these structures accountable. I think we haven’t yet figured out what is a long term solution for that problem.

From the second:

Doing a good job can mean different things in different situations, so it doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re a master craftsman creating a glorious work of art that will stand forever. Places like Chick-Fil-A have shown that you can even make excellent fast food. A fast-food restaurant does not have to be a place where the food is lousy and unhealthy, and where the environment is unsanitary. You can actually have a clean and welcoming experience. The hospitality practiced is an extraordinary experience. You always have a great time when you’re there. And that’s fast food – the bottom of the cultural chain!

That’s it – if you want more, get yourself a copy of the book and let me know what you think!
