Your Finances God's Way

The author has provided excellent biblical documentation for the premises he expands on in use of ones financial resources. The audio version is helpful. With the author reading/presenting the text the words and concepts come alive.

Solid advice and realistic expectations. I appreciated the biblical view as it is specifically what I was wanting and the scripture quoted was a great reflection of the issues that Scott was trying to shine a light on.

Christians Young & Old Should Read This!

This book is SO MUCH MORE than a book on finances! Scott leads the reader through living out biblical truths in your everyday life. I consider myself a pretty faithful Christian, but many of his points hit me right between the eyes! I really enjoyed the eye opening section on having so much "stuff" that you need to rent a storage space to store it all. (Chapter 11 Spending Problems Versus an Income Problem) This study (book & workbook) should be required reading for all new Christians - especially young married couples! This is a study that I will be repeating frequently. Scott is also the narrator, and he did a wonderful job in delivering the information. It was like getting advice from a trusted friend. I HIGHLY recommend you give this book a read - or listen!

A Must Listen for Financial Discipleship!!

This is a must listen for all people looking to follow God with their finances. I appreciate the foundational first chapters that took the time to explain important principles about financial discipleship (like the moral principles involved with money) as well as the practical financial counsel. I value that this was not “just another finances book” but a significant reminder of God’s perspective on stewardship, money, and the state of our hearts and lives. True to Scott’s writing style from his other books (which are also amazing), the listen feels like a conversation with a trusted mentor. It is a five-star all the way!.

Comprehensive look at money through God's Word

If you're looking for a comprehensive look at God's view of money as seen in scripture, this is the book to get you there! Scott addresses many of the most common money-misconceptions and myths as well as the flat-out lies. Scott also has numerous practical examples of ideas to reduce spending and live within our means. I so enjoyed hearing the author read the book--this offers a kind of connection. Also, no one knows the author's intent and the direction he's going, better than the author himself--they're the best qualified to read their own work.
If you've ever wondered about some of the tougher-to-discern passages related to money, you'll likely be pleasantly surprised as Scott explains them and helps us to apply them.
I especially appreciated hearing about the examples of folks from WCC who did things out of the ordinary in order to remain debt-free in a debt-loving world. I was waiting for one infamous Scott Lapierre quote that I've shared numerous times over the years: "the world celebrates debt like it's a blessing and yet, thinks of children, clearly described in scripture by God as blessings, as curses." It's a topsy-turvy works out there! But God is faithful to guide us by His Word and Scott remains faithful to the Word in teaching us.
Also, I'm gonna have to stop saying "tithe" when offering our gifts.
Overall, it's a fantastic listen that I'm grateful to have been able to enjoy.
Highly recommend.
Thank you, Scott and family!!

A practical, Scripture-focused guide to finances

It's a great pleasure for me to be able to write this review and whole-hearted recommendation of Pastor Scott LaPierre's newest book, Your Finances God's Way!

The author truly starts out on the right foot when he makes it clear to the reader that this book is not merely a collection of his own opinions about money and finances; rather, it is a collection of God's thoughts on those subjects, as they are found in His written Word. I love how he pointed out in the preface that our relationship with money and our level of financial maturity will almost always be a reflection of our relationship with the Lord and our level of spiritual maturity.

It was a great idea for the author to structure the content of this book to reflect the way the New Testament Epistles are written – the theology behind wise money management comes before the "how-to" application of what we should or should not do with our finances. One of the things that struck me in particular was just how much Jesus Himself talked about money – making it the subject of nearly 1/3 of His parables! I appreciate Pastor LaPierre's practical wisdom and insights into Christ-like giving, charity, debt, and God-honoring retirement. And in the very last chapter of the book, he does an incredible job bringing to light how the Bible uses financial vocabulary to point us to the true spiritual riches of redemption in Jesus, Who imputed His righteousness to us so that we poor sinners could be ransomed from the debt of sin that we could never repay!

Whether you are struggling to get a handle on your money, or you think you have your finances under control – either way, this book is a practical, Scripture-focused guide that I would gladly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their relationship with the Lord and use His financial resources for His glory. May the Lord cause this book to be a blessing to all who read it!

Insightful

This is an insightful read for anyone looking to better their finances. I would have given it a higher rating had the audiobook narrator had a more enthusiastic voice.

Wonderful book

I found this book very interesting. It was helpful to see where in the Bible the information came from and how Scott came to the conclusion he did.

Challenging and Transforming.

We have the printed version of the Marriage God's Way but we have the audio book for this one. I would say getting the audio book is much better because it is relaxing just to listen. Pastor LaPierre himself reads in a calming but assertive manner that keeps us engaged. Pastor LaPierre addresses the heart of giving and in doing so, he challenges legalistic giving rooted in Bible verses of the Old Testament. My wife and I were planning to stop listening, then we continued to listen with the plan to express our beliefs. As we continued listening, he used all the Bible verses we were planning to use with a more ample background behind them that we were not aware of. He is very knowledgeable of the Bible and his teaching is never condemning but does confront actions that would lead us to confess to receive forgiveness and cleansing through our Lord Jesus Christ's sacrifice. He provides a plan of action through meditating more in Scriptures to keep us encouraged and growing. It is a new beginning!
