Ken Myers: "The Current Economic Crisis: How to Live Well in a Time of Uncertainty"

On August 28, 2009, Ken Myers of Mars Hill Audio gave a two-hour talk at the Richmond Study Center on "the assumptions that underlie modern thinking about the economy and how those assumptions have actually contributed to the current economic crisis, how a biblical worldview calls us to a fundamentally different way of thinking, and how we ought to put that worldview into action."

He asked two overarching questions: (1) How might the lives of believers properly reflect what we believe? (2) How did the West get into the shape that it's in?

His goal is that we would (1) start to have a larger definition of economics; (2) see that economics is a subset of culture; (3) live as Christ's disciples with different patterns of economic behavior.
