The Bible and Money

Finances are complicated for American Chrisitans. The rubber meets the road for us in the land of plenty. This series,Free Money Finance: The Bible and Money, gives a nice summary.

I also have been blessed by The Dave Ramsey Show. I borrowed from the public library his book The Total Money Makeover almost 2 years ago and have embarked on his 7 step plan to "financial peace." i konw my peace comes from Christ, and so does Ramsey, but he's not ashamed to market himself. Here are his 7 baby steps
*$1,000 to start an Emergency Fund
*Pay off all debt using the Debt Snowball
*Three to six months of expenses in savings
*Invest 15 percent of household income into Roth IRAs and pre-tax retirement
*College funding for children
*Pay off home early
*Build wealth and give! Invest in mutual funds and real estate
