Publisher's Synopsis
The sermon series at church about Christian financial stewardship got to you. Or maybe it was a weeknight seminar for six or eight weeks with workbooks and videos. From that time on, you started tithing to your church. How did you do it? Of course, by making sacrifices. You sold some extra possessions because they were signs of greed and materialism. You cut back on this monthly expenditure fifty percent. You cut back on another monthly expenditure completely. And you have been tithing ever since! What a good Christian person or family you are! But did you ever stop and ask yourself such things as . . . What effect does your ongoing sacrifices have on people whose livelihood is dependent on that very thing that you are sacrificing? What spending patterns do you depend on other people to have - your own company's primary customer base - in order to support your own job that sustains your livelihood? When you sold that possession because it was a sign of greed and materialism, were you then depending on the buyer to be a greedy materialist? Are there any underlying points and principles to this? Are there not? Read the book and ponder that!
