I've been listening this week to a radio program by Dr. David Jeremiah about the current economy in America and the world and what it all means...he's written a book called "the Coming Economic Armageddon". The series of sermons for this week have been very educational both about how economics works (explains inflation...helps us grasp how much exactly a trillion dollars is...) and about what God says in His Word about what's going on. Here's a summary:
"Why is the current economic down-turn more troubling than those of the past? What is different this time around? Could it be the trillions of dollars that have evaporated as home values have plummeted? Could it be the premier banking institutions being propped up by government infusions of cash? Dr. Jeremiah examines the causes, effects, and meaning of how corporate greed and fiscal irresponsibility are contributing to the coming fall of the world economy."
you can listen to it on http://www.davidjeremiah.org/site/radio_archives.aspx
The series is titled "The Fall of the American Economy."
just thought I'd share, in case you're interested in having a better understanding.
but of course, I encourage you to use it as a tool to do more research on your own!
