QUOTES TO REMEMBER
“When it comes to managing money God’s way, it’s not just attaching a Bible verse to a financial principle and calling it biblical. But it’s looking deeply at the story of the Bible and finding out what it has to say about money and how we relate to it.”
“I approach everything that comes through our accounts as belonging to the Lord and everything is an opportunity to be generous.”
“We often think of eternal rewards as being merit based, but when we look at how God speaks about obedience in Scripture we realize that obedience is not our gift back to God, it’s actually God’s gift to us.”
“It is God’s grace that enables us to obey Him.”
“If our ultimate treasure is not God Himself and we’re more excited about what we’ll get from Him, I think we’re still fundamentally making the same mistake as worshiping money instead of Him.”
“When we get to Heaven, I think we’ll find that we didn’t sacrifice at all, we simply let go of what was not eternal.”
“God is our treasure. We utilize everything else as a tool to accomplish His purposes.”
“Money promises us everything that God does, but doesn’t deliver on any of them.”
“If we realize that our ultimate value is in God, we don’t see our money or assets as indicative of our value. But we recognize that we’re so valuable that God Himself died on a cross for us.”
“God doesn’t need us, but He chooses to involve us in His work.”
“I don’t think you can understand God’s heart for the world until you know God’s story.”
“Debt obligates you to the past and prevents you from opportunity for the future.”
“Peace-of-mind and security should never come from money.”
“Financial security is a feeling because God knows my needs more intimately than I do. And if He can feed people with manna from Heaven, I think I’ll be fine.”
“There’s currently 22 trillion dollars worth of assets managed by Christians in this country. Christians here have tremendous influence and opportunity to make God known.”
