Economics and Christian Desire: Black Friday, Occupy Wall Street, economic instability – these topics are front and centre in public discourse – and front and centre at this season’s The King’s University’s semi-annual Interdisciplinary Studies conference. Our theme is “You’re Richer WHEN you Think” – a play on the popular Scotiabank slogan. Globally, we are the 5%, not the 99%, and because of this often spend money too freely – buying anything we please without much thought. This conference challenged students to see their spending choices as a voice that reflects their own Christian values.
