Freedom for Christians

Imagine feeling free from financial worry, free from debt, and free from the never-ending pressures of juggling all those financial demands. Imagine...feeling in control of your finances.

Money Matters: Financial Freedom for all God’s Children shows you how to do God's math, which is based on spiritual principles found in Scripture. God's math results in:

. Debt-Free Living	. Focus & Planning
. A Disciplined Lifestyle	. Easy Simplicity
. Surrender & Trust	. Creating versus Consuming
. Stewardship Versus Ownership	. Generosity

"Earn all you can, save all you can,

and give all you can.”—John Wesley

"I have observed how the grip of materialism can strangle a person and an organization. The only cure is understanding and applying God’s principles of stewardship and generosity. It’s all there in the Bible. Money DOES Matter. Learn from Mike, one of the best teachers of our time, how to get in sync with God’s game plan." — Bob Buford, Founding Chairman, Leadership Network
