I was in the act of readying this item for posting when I saw that it is an operation based in Unicoi, Tennessee. Unicoi is an interesting community in its own right, but back to the subject at hand (<--- awards himself ten 'Cliche' points). How about 'but to refocus on the topic?

This presents an interesting question. What is the Christian role in economics? Perhaps a challenge we can all accept is to examine our own personal feelings and beliefs to determine what we hold as their purpose and role in relation to the economy.

A profound Bible verse 'leads' on the group's home page.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare [are] not fleshly but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. And they will be ready to punish all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
2 Corinthians 10:4,5

So how did I get here? It started at one stop on my morning prowl where the headline 'GOP chairman probes six major televangelists' caught my eye. The story noted that the watchdog group Trinity Foundation had stirred the pot.

CBS also reports that Sen. Grassley's letters were prompted in part by Ole Anthony, an investigator with the Trinity Foundation, a religious watchdog group that probes potential fraud among religious groups.

The concept behind the essay is almost fundamental and one which demands scrutiny.
