Live like a citizen of God's Kingdom—here and now.
Does this sound like you? You go to church and attend a small group. You read the Bible and pray. You try to help your neighbors and serve others. You’re living the good life. But it feels like something’s missing.
Jesus invites us to something greater—life as citizens in God’s Kingdom! Through Practicing the King’s Economy, you’ll discover new ways to live out the Kingdom in your daily life at home, work, and church.
Praise for Practicing the King’s Economy
“Beautifully exegeted. Practicing the King’s Economy reintroduces a wide-ranging, timeless, and distinctive approach to economics that only the body of Christ can display.”
K. A. Ellis, fellow for World Christianity; Reformed Theological Seminary
“This book is an incredibly helpful tool for all Christians who desire to live a countercultural life for the common good, especially as it relates to their money and resources.”
Gabe Lyons, coauthor Good Faith, founder of Q
“Michael Rhodes, Robby Holt, and Brian Fikkert have written a compelling book of ‘practical theology.' Their testimonies, grown out of their own experiences, will be life-giving for any reader who cares about economic neighborliness.”
Walter Brueggemann, professor emeritus at Columbia Theological Seminary; author
of The Prophetic Imagination
“I love the six keys that apply Scripture and can unlock a deeper and more meaningful encounter with God. If your checkbook has been the most significant book in your life, then you need to read Practicing the King’s Economy.”
Krish Kandiah, founder of Home for Good; author of God is Stranger
“Here is a model of economic discipleship that doesn’t just tell you what to think but how to practice your way into living a kingdom economics. Here is a book that refuses idealism but is fueled by resurrection hope.”
James K.A. Smith, Calvin College; author of You Are What You Love
“Simply wonderful, solidly biblical, marvelously practical. This book charts a clear path through one of the greatest challenges (and failures) of the American church. A must-read.”
