A Christian View of MoneyCelebrating God's Generosity The Giving Project, Book 1 |
|
"In over 25 years of working with money—the second most recurring theme in the Bible—I have found nothing more lacking than a truly helpful Christian viewpoint and spirit of giving. A Christian View of Money provides the essential theological undergirding to working with money."
--Don McClanen, Ministry of Money, Gaithersburg, Maryland
We live in a consumer–minded culture. Our culture insists that we think about money--how we earn it, how we spend it, and whether we have enough of it. Since money is such a dominant force in our lives, as disciples of Jesus our faithfulness includes the actions we take with money.
This book by Mark Vincent combines Bible study, real life scenarios, and practical suggestions to help Christians clarify their beliefs about the earning and use of money.
"A Christian View of Money takes the neat principle that everything belongs to God, and shows just how untidy it can be. Living a financially faithful life is not smooth, but filled with rough turns and complicated decisions. Believers can’t ignore it. Vincent takes the Bible’s wealth of teachings about money and applies them to life today."
--Sherrie Kornoelji, KDC Servant Institute, Kalamazoo, Michigan
