Christian s & Money

There’s a lot of debate in Christian circles (and non-Christian circles, for that matter) about money. Some of these debates revolve around the following questions.

Is it wrong for Christians to gain and/or pursue wealth?

Is it wrong for Christians to be in debt? If not, how much debt is acceptable?

Should Christians worry about retirement?

Should Christians play the stock market?

Should Christians tithe – or is that an Old Testament thing? If they should, how much? Is it 10%?

Is it acceptable for pastors, missionaries, and/or other full-time Christian workers to pursue non-ministry employment and/or non-ministry money-making opportunities?

How much should pastors, missionaries, and/or other full-time workers make in the first place?
