Gary North deserves more attention than he receives as an economist and a biblical scholar. He has undoubtedly written more on the intersection of those two topics than anyone on the planet. Despite being an expert, his anonymity is due to his very particular and pointed worldview and therefore a very singular readership. This work was made for the new believer to unload his view of the faith for the uninitiated. This is not the audience I would recommend read this.
