March 12, 2009 Ben Loop
Have you ever experienced conflicts between your responsibilities to your business and your duties as a Catholic?
Do you sometimes wonder if the economically rational choice is the right choice?
Do our actions as leaders in business enhance or detract from the Church’s vision for a just society?
This presentation explores the relationship between faith and commerce in free market conditions, drawing upon Catholic social teaching as expressed in Pope Leo XIII’s encyclical, Rerum Novarum.
In preparation for next month's meeting with Ben Loop, you might want to read Pope Leo XIII's encyclical Rerum Novarum or "On Capital and Labor."
