Douglas Jones, Editorial Director of Canon Press, has recommended The Conservative Nanny State
““Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, to rob the needy of justice, and to take what is right from the poor of My people.” Scripture routinely denounces economic sins, yet for deep, modern reasons, we can no longer see them. This brief book offers an angle to start seeing the world through more biblical categories. The book isn’t explicitly Christian, and everyone will find things to disagree with, but use it to raise questions and challenge your assumptions. The prophets will make much more sense. As you read, though, remember that this is just the surface of modern economic sins. But it’s a great place to start.”
