God Money & Me comes out of my personal search to discover how to break the restriction of financial lack. All too often we are led to believe that giving is the only solution needed to experience financial breakthrough.It is true that generosity is a kingdom value. However, you may be surprised to learn that giving alone will not create financial freedom. For that to occur, we require four main ingredients that, once activated on a foundation of revelation, will create a life and future of financial breakthrough and blessing.God Money & Me will enable you to create a pathway to financial freedom and will equip you to establish a financial foundation for future generations.
This is a very elusive subject I think Paul make compelling comments and suggestions in this book that one ought to follow. Great book, I enjoyed reading it. ‘the greatest vacuum on the planet is the knowledge of God’s goodness.’
Excellent book. Gave me so much clarity into what God's plan for my finances was. So biblical, practical, and liberating. Would recommend it to anyone at any stage of life.
This book was written for Christians, especially those wanting to get their finances under control. There are many books available to help people with their money management. I'm a Barefoot Investor disciple, but Scott Pape does not place God first. I'm a Christian and I want to place God first and the area of finances has been one of the great battlegrounds for me over the years.
You need to be in the right headspace to read and appreciate the revolutionary nature of God, Money and Me.
It's a very simple book based on the premise that God is sovereign. Everything belongs to him. Every resource. Every possession. Every dollar. God's blessing are for his glory and the blessing of others. God first. God, Money and Me is challenging spiritually and defies conventional thinking. It's very counter cultural. The biblical based arguments the author puts forth are pretty much irrefutable in my opinion.
I would have enjoyed it more, or got more out of it, if it was shorter (I feel it's quite repetitive) and more practical (this is where Pape's work excels).
If you're finances are a mess or if your struggling to escape living paycheck to paycheck, you should read this book and prayerfully consider it's merits. Even if you're not a believer. If you're in trouble, why not try God's way.
