Are you looking to become debt-free? Are you tired of continually paying interest on your credit card and loans, leaving you short every month? Do you dream of getting rid of your mortgage so that you've got the peace of knowing your home is your own and can't be taken from you? If you’re looking to get to the place of being free from financial debt, a place where you’re not at the beck-and-call of any financial institution, then The Joy of Financial Freedom - A Biblical and Practical Guide to Becoming Debt-Free is a book that will help you achieve your goal.
Two fundamental elements are needed for the Christian to become debt-free. The first is faith in what God says in His Word regarding money. The second is the need to manage money in a way that enables the individual to take control of their finances. Both are needed in order to experience God’s will of debt freedom.
The Joy of Financial Freedom balances these two essential elements perfectly. First of all it brings understanding regarding what the Bible teaches about money, as well as what God’s blueprint is for the Christian regarding money. In bringing this understanding, faith to believe God for debt-freedom is birthed.
The Joy of Financial Freedom also has a distinctive practical element to help individuals manage and budget their finances in a simple and effective way. The practical advice is easy to apply, taking the reader on an orderly journey rather than overwhelming them with complicated methods and formulas which can often feel daunting.
Included at the end of each chapter are some Practical Exercises. These are designed to help the individual consider their own personal situation; what they can do to turn things around; as well as the opportunity to ask God to remove wrong attitudes and unhealthy habits that may be hindering progress.
Chapters Include:
◆ The promises God makes regarding His provision - all of which are the result of His nature as Provider
◆ The reassurance that God is bigger than any debt we owe, and is waiting for us to ask for His help so He can walk with us into our debt-freedom
◆ The sharp contrast between the Two Financial Systems in operation - the world’s way of dealing with finances, and God’s way
◆ Explaining the principles of God’s way of dealing with finances - what are these principles and how do I apply them to my life?
◆ The Simplicity of God’s Financial System - God’s financial principles are accessible to everyone, because understanding how God wants us to deal with money comes as a result of His grace, not academic ability
◆ Practical Stewardship - the last part of the book is dedicated to looking at the practical aspects of how to clear debt God’s way, including advice on how to clear credit card debt using an “Avalanche Effect”. Advice on getting to grips with expenditure so we can identify areas where we may be wasting money, as well as a simple budget plan that can be trusted even in the most challenging of financial seasons are also covered
If you’re looking to become debt-free, then The Joy of Financial Freedom is a book that will help you. The book is born out of the personal experience of the author and his wife as they have walked with God for over three decades - a journey where God has proved Himself faithful despite the challenges they have faced. Don’t be tempted to leave debt-freedom as someone else’s experience - start today and choose to make the reality your own!
