Money, Money, Money

The response to yesterday's message has been amazing! I talked about a few of God's financial principles, Brian Manning (a bank manager for Regions) spoke on the danger signs of debt, and Grady Dycus shared about how and he and his wife are closing the door on debt. Grady's powerful story proves that God's financial plan does work! You may want to take a few minutes to listen to his story (which was near the end of yesterday's message).

Also during the message, I mentioned several resources that have helped people discover God's principles for closing the door on debt. Below are some links to those resources and a few more that you may find beneficial. Check them out:

3 GREAT resources from Dave Ramsey:

This book adds 4 new chapters to his classic book, Financial Peace. The new chapters tackle such topics like marriage and money, singles and money, and kids and money.

There's an incredible DVD resource from Andy Stanley called Lost. It's a series of sermons by one of the greatest Christian communicators I've ever heard. There is also small group curriculum included, so you can use it for personal study, family study, or group study. My small group just completed the study and LOVED it!

Let me give you a website that has tons of info and tools: http://www.crown.org/
The organization is called Crown Financial Ministries. In their words, they believe that "money is the language of the world, and God's word is the translation that leads to True Financial Freedom."

Let me know what tools you've found helpful as you've walked on your financial journey. I'd love to hear from you and learn from you!
