One of the great challenges of life is to limit distractions in order to focus on what matters the most. Regardless of how much or little we have, issues of money threaten to sidetrack us. If we have a lot of money, we fear losing what we possess. We are tempted to put our hope in our wealth instead of God. If we don't have so much, we stress about not having enough to provide for our families and are often consumed with the desire for more. Financial Faithfulness seeks to change your view of money by showing you how to use it in God's best interest.
