Summary

Wayne Grudem is a theologian known for his conservative approach to both doctrine and economics. His new book "The Poverty of Nations: A Sustainable Solution" (co-authored with economist Barry Asmus) makes the case that pouring aid into developing countries is a failed strategy. Grudem debates whether the Bible supports free market, capitalist economics with Australian economist and theologian Richard Glover who wrote a critique of the book for the Australian Bible Society.
