Christianity Today Reprints Eventide Faith & Business Article
“The 70,000 Minimum Wage,” a post from Eventide’s Faith & Business blog has been reprinted by Christianity Today magazine as an op-ed article, “Why ‘Overpaying’ Workers Makes Biblical and Business Sense.” In the piece, Eventide Funds’ Tim Weinhold examines a young CEO’s decision to significantly increase his lowest-paid workers’ salaries—and the reaction to the story when it broke.
Weinhold serves as Director of Eventide’s Faith & Business Initiative, and has served in a faith and business/investing thought leadership capacity with Eventide since its founding. He is also an adjunct faculty member of the School of Business, Government, and Economics at Seattle Pacific University. More of his writing for Eventide Funds can be read here.
