Is wealth inequality a spiritual issue? If so, what can our religious institutions do about it — and how can we, as individuals, best love our neighbors … financially?
This week, Tom and Amber talk with Rev. Winnie Varghese about economic justice and its scriptural roots. A national leader in the Episcopal Church, Rev. Winnie helped the Diocese of New York develop a credit union while serving at Trinity Church Wall Street in NYC. She shares how the credit union is a ministry: a way to provide financial services that reimagines church — and community.
