About The Biblical Vision of Sabbath Economics

There is enough for everyone. That's the vision woven into the warp and weft of the Bible, through the principles of Sabbath Economics. This is God's vision of human living, where the world is an abundant gift. It is a vision where we live with gratitude and accept our limits; where forgiveness is not just a spiritual matter but a practical reality for the systems of debt and ownership. It is a vision of good news for the poor.
