When we worry about money we could develop financial struggles

USA Today: "Money worries hinder job performance"...
" Health problems "..." lower productivity."

These words are quoted from the front page of the October 5, 2005 Money Section of USA Today. Sadly, they are backed up with studies and surveys conducted by Virginia Tech University, the Association of Consumer Credit Counseling Agencies, and Openshaw's Family Financial Network.

The Problem: One in four US workers have serious financial stress, and this stress occurs at all income levels. Employers see more absenteeism and lost productivity. Health issues include: high blood pressure, weight gain, insomnia and substance abuse.

The Answer: In the Bible, 3 John verse 2 tells us that God wants His people to prosper, to be in health, as their souls (minds, wills, and emotions) prosper. God makes it clear that first we get our minds on God's instructions for us. We reprogram our wills and our emotions based on God's instruction manual - the Bible. As we search His Word, we learn that over 2,000 verses of scripture (Old Testament and New Testament) are there to guide us in how to wisely steward the resources God has entrusted to our care. These resources include: our time, our talents-gifts & abilities, and -yes- money.

The Practical Solution for the 21st Century: "Financial Freedom in 7 Weeks Plus" is a practical application workbook that combines God's instructions with practical advice for today, easy to use family spending plan forms, and helpful examples. This program is ideal for a 7 week small group study, but can definitely be used as a self-study tool.
