In Pursuit Of The Almighty'S Dollar: A History Of Money And American Protestantism

Looking into the economics of American Protestantism, this work examines how churches have raised and spent money since colonial times and considers what these practices say about both religion and American culture. It contends that paying for good works done in the name of God has proved highly compatible with American ideas of enterprise.
