You’ve probably noticed at this point this past summer- your dollar isn’t going as far as it used to. Gas prices are up, grocery prices are up, and just about everything else seems more expensive. It’s not just your imagination- inflation is at a 40 year high. It’s risen 9% in one year’s time, and it rose 7% in 2021. Not only is inflation up, we’re either headed towards a recession or are already in one, depending on which economist you ask. The S&P 500 had its worst first half of a year since 1970, and it is down 19 percent since January. Things are bad. And they just might be getting worse.

But we’re Christians! Why should we even think about money? Shouldn’t we be just trusting God?

What does the Bible say about managing our money during economic uncertainty? And how can continue to be generous and trust God when we don’t know how much it’ll cost to fill up our gas tank this time next week?
