Jesus visited the earth for a number of reasons. One of them was to demonstrate God's character and to show us how to live a life that reflects God's character and values. Now one of those values has been referred to as a forgotten value because today's culture seems to obscure its real meaning. On today's program Rob West and Steve Moore explain the Biblical meaning of "integrity." Next they answer your questions on any financial topic at at (800) 525-7000 and MoneyWise@ Compass1.org about the following:

-How should you plan to use an inheritance wisely?

-Should someone in the military rely on military retirement or open separate investment accounts?

-Do credit unions have the same federal insurance and safeguards as banks?

-Does it make sense to take advantage of 0% financing on a vehicle rather than buying it outright?
