FINANCIAL STEWARDSHIP

First and foremost, do you have the “right” perspective on finances / money?

Luke 16: 11

Therefore if you have not been faithful in the use of unrighteous wealth, who will entrust the true wealth to you?

After detailing the dispensation of his personal possessions, Patrick Henry’s will places his worldly wealth in the proper perspective.

“This is all the Inheritance I can give to my dear family. The religion of Christ can give them one which will make them rich indeed.”

—Patrick Henry / First Governor of Virginia

 Will you give at least 10% of your income to expand God’s Kingdom?

 A sacrifice is not a sacrifice until it is a sacrifice.

Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
— Romans 12: 1-2

Consider taking “Financial Peace”

BROWN FINANCIAL ADVICE

Don’t borrow money for any depreciating asset.

  • Education - OK

  • Real Estate / House - OK

  • Vehicle - No.

  • Furniture - No.

  • etc.

No one can serve two masters: Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.

Matthew 6: 24
