Great book for getting Financially Started

This book does a great job of showing you how to put your faith first and money second. Phil makes money simple to understand and gives you basic goals to shoot for in order to get financially secure. While showing you how to take the basic steps of getting to financial security, Phil includes short stories to emphasize key points and wraps everything up with biblical principles. There is no promise that it will be easy to get financially stable, but the peace of doing so is well worth it. This book is easy to read and relate to, and even if you are a financially minded person, the "why" behind your saving and spending gets clarified. Read it, get the basics down, and you will get to financial security and peace.

A godly way to budgeting

This workbook is a great way to work with your spouse when talking about finances and it helps you make godly decisions about your purchases.

A Great Book to put Your Bucks in a Row

While there are a lot of personal finance books, only a few really deal with the reasons why a person/family get into a debt situation. Well this book starts with the reason why and goes from there. The book is divided into two parts: "the reasons why" and "what to do about it". Personally, I didn't know what I'd get out of the book (I've read a number of finance books by secular authors). To my surprise, I actually started to understand where I was making my mistakes and where my place and my money's place are in God's plan. If you want to finally fix your money problems, this is the book for you. I must admit that the second part of the book is much more helpful with the workbook, so plan on buying both.
