Gary and Christy walk through some resources that can help us in our personal finances, no matter if we’re living paycheck-to-paycheck, have a lot of debt, or things are going well money-wise. Resources like these can help us with budgeting, buying a house, determining how much to save, better understand our insurance options, and a lot of other things. But the Bible is the best resource we have when it comes to any aspect of our lives, and God offers His wisdom so we know how to glorify Him with our financial blessings. If we honor the Lord with our wealth (Prov 3:9), aren’t hasty with our money (Prov 13:11), and find joy in the blessings we already have (Heb 13:5), God will bless us in our personal finances (Matt 6:33).
