Product Description
Before hurrying to join the frantic search for ways to 'get the economy moving again' it might be worth reflecting on the deeper meaning of the current situation. No book exposed the delusions and fantasies that underpin the world's economic system better than Grace and Mortgage. It opened many people's eyes to the corrosive effect of debt, which impoverishes the poorest and leads inevitably to the dispoiling of the earth.It gave us a new language for understanding the Gospel. Peter Selby found echoes of the New Testament's witness to the release offered by Christ, and to a 'commomwealth of God' in which there are no 'debtors' or 'creditors' but where the God to whom we owe everything has cancelled our debts. It is a message in stark contradiction to the money-morality which has led to the greed and fear that now threaten to engulf us.
