The Protestant Work Ethic Built the Best Economies | Douglas Wilson | Of Flames and Crowns

The greatness of Western Civilization was enabled and realized through the application of Christian cosmology, which sought to propagate truth, beauty, and goodness in all things. One of the pillars of this civilizational flourishing was the Protestant work ethic, recovered during the time of the Reformation. This recovery restored a high view of vocation and established the principle that all work matters to God and carries eternal significance. Work is not to be seen as a necessary evil or a mere consequence of the Fall. Man was created to work—created to exercise dominion over the world he was given, seeking to be fruitful in all things. Lennox Kalifungwa is joined by Doug Wilson to discuss this all-important subject.
