When you decided to follow Jesus, did your finances come along? If you asked God how you should use your money, what do you think he would say?
This little book provides the answer. Dig into God's Word and learn how God's people have lived out its live-giving instructions throughout history.
You'll find that Jesus wants to set you free of burdensome commands, financial worry, and struggling in isolation. He knows you can't do this on your own - and you don't have to. He wants to make you a blessing to your world. Get ready to discover the joy of the gospel on a radical new level.
The Radical Money Manifesto reconnects discipleship with the idea of stewardship, the way the concepts behind these words are actually used in our New Testament. Jesus has a much bigger agenda for how you use the money he entrusted to you. Jesus issues a radical manifesto for citizens of the kingdom of heaven. He offers freedom from fretting, justice for the poor, and investment opportunities with eternal pay-offs. Whatever it costs, Jesus promises it will be worth it.
