Review: Samuel Gregg’s latest ‘should be on every Christian’s reading list’
Review: Samuel Gregg’s latest ‘should be on every Christian’s reading list’
Dec 30, 2025 11:26 PM

The US Review of Books recently analyzed Samuel Gregg’s latest book, For God and Profit. John E. Roper, the journalist who wrote the review, gave For God and Profit a “RECOMMENDED” rating. Beyond the rating, Roper, had some very positive remarks about Gregg’s book. He said this:

The author knows he has his work cut out for him. Many Christians have been indoctrinated with a general distrust of both money and its effects on society. This often translates into the belief that money, while necessary, is still inherently evil, and that those who trade in it such as banks and other financial institutions are suspect at best. Thankfully Gregg is well-prepared for the challenge in front of him, and in possibly one of the finest books ever written on the subject, he shows how faith and finance do not have to be patible.

Many excellent books have been written recently on how a Christian should view finances, but few, if any, have broached the subject in this manner and depth. Well-written and highly informative, Gregg’s book should be on every Christian’s reading list.

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on Luke 6:1-5   (Read Luke 6:1-5)   Christ justifies his disciples in a work of necessity for themselves on the sabbath day, and that was plucking the ears of corn when they were hungry.

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on 2 Corinthians 3:12-18   (Read 2 Corinthians 3:12-18)   It is the duty of the ministers of the gospel to use great plainness, or clearness, of speech. The Old Testament believers had only cloudy and passing glimpses of that glorious Saviour, and unbelievers looked no further than to the outward institution. But the great precepts of...

  Commentary on Today's Verse   Commentary on Mark 13:5-13   (Read Mark 13:5-13)   Our Lord Jesus, in reply to the disciples' question, does not so much satisfy their curiosity as direct their consciences.
