Your Money and Your Life
Completely revised and updated edition 2010
Keith Tondeur and Steve Pierce
Experience God's grace in your finances with this biblical approach to managing money
In today's consumer-dominated society, it's easy to feel that more is always better and that happiness depends on gaining wealth and possessions. This lively and reassuring volume sets out to challenge that view. Through biblical teaching and invaluable practical insights, it demonstrates that by handling money in line with Christian principles, we can enjoy contentment, peace of mind and freedom from the fear which commonly affects so much of our financial thinking.
The topics covered in Your Money and Your Life include:
- how to work out a budget
- the problem of credit
- dealing with debt
- giving
- saving
- helping children to manage money
- ethical investment
"God loves a cheerful giver because when we give that is when we act most like God. He is the cheerful giver and this book is packed with biblical teaching and practical examples of how Christians can use godly principles when handling all aspects of money." - The Rt Revd James Jones, Bishop of Liverpool.
Your Money and Your Life - Bible Study Course
Based on Keith Tondeur's book, this course looks at all aspects of biblical teaching on money and then explores how this can actually be lived out in today's society.
The course, which is ideal for use with small groups but can be used for personal study, is both practical and challenging.
"One of the great omissions of the pulpit is the subject of money. This study guide makes up that loss for many leaders." -Joel Edwards, General Director, Evangelical Alliance
Handling Money God's Way
The way we handle our money demonstrates how deep our faith is. What should our attitude to money be?
This booklet, which is part of the New Wine resource series, tackles some of the questions Christians frequently ask about money issues.
Churchresource - Guide for Churches
Many churches are concerned about the increasing financial pressures and personal debt problems among their own membership or within the community in which they serve.
Jesus' teaching to 'love your neighbour' and to help the poor and needy is well known but we are often unsure what to do, how to do it or where to start.
This booklet sets out the various options, ranging from the very simple to the more elaborate, available to churches wishing to help people.
It is written by Gordon Cook of Credit Action and Heather Keates, Head of Community Money Advice
Your Money Counts
Produced by the Family Matters initiative and Credit Action, this is a six week, practical course with an additional week looking at what the bible says about money.
A really valuable resource for outreach within your community.
A must for everyone who wants to feel more confident about handling money.
