Description
What does the Bible really say about money? This completely revised and updated version of the classic best-seller provides a Christian perspective about money and material possessions based on the author's painstaking study of the Bible. Randy Alcorn uses the Scriptures to approach this often touchy subject head-on. Thought-provoking arguments challenge readers to rethink their attitudes and use their God-given resources in ways that will have an eternal impact. Alcorn deals straightforwardly with issues of materialism, stewardship, prosperity theology, debt, and more. An excellent choice for group study as well as individual financial guidance. Includes a study guide and appendix with additional resources.

I can't tell you how important I think this book is for all believers. We as Christians fall desperately short when it comes to Biblical stewardship. When I first started this book, I read it numbly because it seemed overwhelming. But I prayed as I read, asking God to reveal areas of faithlessness

in order to view money more wisely. I expected another book on "love of money is the root of all evil, don't be materialistic, remember to support the poor and missionaries and oh, tithe at least 10% on the gross". It is SO much more than that! I have recommended this book to so many people. If we had the attitude and views about our stewardship as God does and as Randy Alcorn attempts to reveal, the world would truly be changed. Unfortunately, we will continue in capitalist, corporate America to waste it away on pleasure and things that will not last for eternity. Praying God will use this book to make a difference, one Christian at a time. Show Less

Acorn applies his eternal perspective to the subject of money and, in he process, brings great clarity to the multitude of passages that speak of reward and treasure in heaven. This book will challenge you to store up treasure in heaven in new ways. Highly recommended!
