Read the Biblical Perspective page, as well as chapters 3 - 6 in Bulls, Bears, & Golden Calves, then respond to the following questions:
What are the costs and the benefits of economic growth? How should Christians value economic growth?
What should be our response, first as Christians, and then again as business people and responsible citizens, when GDP growth figures are published each month or quarter?
Does the measurement of GDP, and its annual growth rate, reflect the socioeconomic welfare of our society? Why or why not?
