Faith, hope, and love will abide, according to St. Paul, when all else passes away, and the greatest of these is love (1 Corinthians 13:13). 'If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.' (1 Cor 13:3). And yet, St. Paul often uses the language of profit, gain, and loss (Phil 3:7-9), the language of accounting, when speaking of the supreme value of knowing Christ in comparison to everything else. Does the new orientation given to us by faith, hope, and love offer us a better way to understand the meaning of money?
