Faculty Scholarship – Economics

In this paper presented at the Wesleyan Theological Society Annual Meeting in March 2014, two professors from Olivet Nazarene University – one from the field of Economics and the other from Theology – address the intersection of Wesleyan theology and ethics with the theoretical foundations of capitalism.

  • The compatibility of capitalism and Wesleyan thought
  • Elements of Wesleyan theology most relevant to capitalism
  • Toward a Wesleyan approach to free market economics
