Welcome to Biblical Economics 101®, a course taught by Christian Author and Speaker Dr. S. R. Watkins, who has over 40 years of experience in the field and has “written the book” on biblical economics. This course explores the principles of economics from a biblical perspective.

Moreover, you will explore the biblical foundations of economic justice and their direct relevance to poverty, inequality, and the environment, equipping you with the tools to make a real difference.
Dr. Watkins’ unique course is about lectures, interactive discussions, and audience engagement. You can ask questions and share your thoughts, fostering community and active learning. With his wealth of experience in the field, Dr. Watkins will bring real-world examples and practical insights to the course, making the learning experience even more enriching and expert.

I look forward to hosting this course at your Church and exploring Biblical Economics together.
A Recent Endorsement
“Thank you so much for such a remarkable exposition of God’s Word as it relates to Kingdom Economics.
The two-hour session you delivered under Solomon’s Business Institute (coordinated by Pastor Israel) was nothing short of profound. I found myself listening with deep awe at the depth, clarity, and scriptural strength with which you broke down the principles of money, stewardship, work, business, value creation, tithing, first fruits, offerings, and the law of seedtime and harvest.
What struck me most was not just the knowledge you shared, but the way you connected spiritual truth with practical economic wisdom. You made it clear that money is not just a tool for personal comfort or ambition, but a kingdom resource with purpose, responsibility, and accountability before God.
Your teaching brought a fresh and serious perspective to areas many of us have either misunderstood, casually handled, or overspiritualized without fully grasping the practical discipline required. The way you explained money management, wealth stewardship, value creation, and the believer’s responsibility in the marketplace was deeply convicting.
Honestly, Sir, this was PhD-level teaching. It was rich, structured, practical, deeply scriptural, and spiritually awakening.
In my 30 years as a Christian, I have heard many teachings on giving, prosperity, work, and financial stewardship, but this session genuinely shook me. It opened my eyes to how much we have trivialized the subject of work, money, business, and wealth creation in the Kingdom.
I came away from the session not just informed, but challenged. Challenged to think differently. Challenged to work differently. Challenged to see money not merely as income, but as a trust. Challenged to approach business, value creation, and stewardship with a deeper sense of purpose and responsibility before God.
Thank you once again, Sir, for pouring out so generously. This teaching was timely, weighty, and deeply impactful.
May God continue to increase you in wisdom, revelation, grace, and influence as you keep equipping the Body of Christ with truth that is both scriptural and practical.”
