The Cost of Christian Living

'Martyn is not in thrall to anyone except God and he is quite brilliantly articulate, biblically literate and anchored in the struggle of actual living... With much courage he discusses currency, money and debt.'

Iain Torrance, president emeritus of Princeton Theological Seminary

'You will find much you thought you understood stood on its head by Percy's determined "monetising" of biblical material - because to his eyes the myriad references to money matters are already there, if only we let ourselves look.'

Peter Selby, formerly bishop of Worcester, author of An Idol Unmasked

'This book is a challenging read for any Christian. Based on deep scholarship and vividly written, it helps us bridge the centuries and imagine afresh the real flesh-and-blood Jesus and his uncomfortable message.'

Stephen Green, BRF Ministries' vice president and former group chief executive of HSBC

'Percy uses biblical stories... to explore the intersection of faith and finance. This book is a timely call to readers and the church to embrace God's radical, abundant love for a truly inclusive kingdom.'

Jeremy Greaves, archbishop of Brisbane

'This inspiring and moving book maps new spaces for theological thinking on the nature of God's kingdom currency... Martyn brings readers constructively beyond their accepted way, engaging their understanding, ideas and patterns of thought.'

Paul Kwong, archbishop emeritus, Hong Kong

'This book will not only change your thinking about money - it may even change your thinking about God's church.'

Mark Edington, bishop in charge, The Convocation of Episcopal Churches in Europe

'Percy's accessible writing and profound theological reflections inspire a renewed understanding of Christian discipleship, rooted in love, service and the abundant grace of God.'

The Very Revd Dr Isaac Pooblan, provost of St Andrew's Cathedral, Aberdeen
