<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Do you have money trouble? Biblical counselor Jim Newheiser reorients your heart to worship God rather than wealth and presents the wisdom of Scripture on financial and work-related topics"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Do you have money trouble? Financial problems all too often come from spiritual problems, and unbiblical views of money tend to lead to financial distress, idolatry of wealth or possessions, and confusion about the role of work in our lives. In this month-long devotional, biblical counselor Jim Newheiser turns to Scripture to reorient your heart to find biblical understanding and true contentment even when money is tight. When you worship God rather than becoming preoccupied with wealth's promise of security, possessions, and pleasure, you lay a strong foundation for true financial success. Reflection questions and practical exercises, paired with the wisdom of Scripture on financial and work-related topics, point you toward fiscal responsibility on earth and treasure in heaven.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Financial stress is a leading cause of marital discord and severe anxiety for individuals. This devotional points to solid biblical wisdom that will ground readers who feel tossed about by waves of financial woe. Scripture says a great deal about money. It gives lots of practical advice on how to earn it and use it. But the bible is also clear that how we relate to money is a spiritual issue. This devotional provides biblical wisdom for both the spiritual and practical dimensions of financial stewardship. Newheiser offers a steady flow of biblical wisdom to address the complex issue of financial stewardship. While money advice often seems like a few simple steps; work hard, don't spend more than you make, save and tithe, the bible reveals that there is much more to it. This devotional will address the practical elements of managing our resources but it also addresses the heart issues that are intertwined in our views and use of money.--Curtis W. Solomon, Director, The Biblical Counseling Coalition<br><br>Jim addresses a very important subject in all of our lives. I would put the topic of finances in the top five issues people struggle with in my counseling. He walks us through many of God's commands and principles to help guide us in this area of daily tension in our walk with God. May the daily reading and application of these principles encourage you as it has me.--Stuart W. Scott Professor of Biblical Counseling at The Master's University, Graduate Program<br><br>Newheiser provides much-needed biblical wisdom for our ever-present temptations with money. Each devotional in this book ends with brief but pointed action steps designed to help us address the sinful issues that arise in our hearts as we wrestle with godly stewardship. Jim lays out a healthy, biblical approach to provisions. He does this by helping us understand how to utilize God-given resources for God's glory, while also appropriately warning of the dangers that lurk with our love of money. Dr. Newheiser's words are a timely gift for those seeking to live biblically in a culture saturated with the pitfalls of materialism.--T. Dale Johnson, Executive Director, Association of Certified Biblical Counselors; Associate Professor of Biblical Counseling, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary<br><br>This wonderful book from Jim Newheiser provides Christians with God's money wisdom in the most accessible format I have seen. The format of the book allows believers to assess and diagnose their money attitudes and practices in eminently biblical terms and in the most crucial areas. Beyond that it points us all to Christ through whom lasting heart based change can come.--James C. Petty, Author, Step by Step; Executive Director Emeritus, Children's Jubilee Fund<br><br>Years ago a financially savvy man in our church gave me a book to read about investments. I tried to read it on vacation. Boring! After 3 pages I put it down. I am not all that interested in economics or investing. Even though we need money to live, money talk bores me. This book, even though about money (and related issues, like work) is hardly boring. Jim Newheiser has a wonderful gift of bringing together solid biblical exposition, sound theology, and practical application. This 31-day devotional is not a book on how to invest, or put your money to work, this is a book about our hearts. Money is a barometer of where our heart is. Jesus tells us so. Jim, full of Scripture and wisdom, gives us a practical book for the heart. However, I warn you, if you pick it up, you cannot read it casually. There are biblically penetrating themes and questions for serious reflection and action. These daily devotions need to be discussed. I envision this devotional being used by couples preparing for marriage, by married couples, by parents with children, by small discipleship groups, or Sunday School classes. As a pastor, I will make this book widely available to our church, and I know it will bear fruit, because God's Word does not return void.--Brian Borgman, Founding Pastor, Grace Community Church, Minden, Nevada<br>
