Godonomics

As a Financial Analyst, when I saw this title I was instantly intrigued, after all, God-o-nomics. If you were to break that down, already the title sounded interesting. Are we talking about God and money? God and financial policy, either way, the title caught my attention. When I sat down to read the book, I had an enjoyable time. While I typically prefer fiction books, Godonomics was not a bad compromise.


Godonomics takes a look into how God would talk to various members of the US government if given a chance, and what God would say. Chad Hovind, the author, gives readers something to think about through his imaginative use of US politics and government. If you're a reader that enjoys looking at hypothetical situations, this should be a book you enjoy, especially if you tend to read a lot of economic theory books.

So just how can we save our country, protect our wallet, and do it in a Biblical way? It's easy! according to Hovind, the Bible promotes a free-market economy, and if we follow the Bible, we will be able to find success, not only in our day to day lives, but also in our economy as a whole. For a good read, even if I did not agree with it entirely, I will give Godonomics 4/5 stars, enjoy!
