Money Series: Uncommon Cents
What does God have to say about money?
This series is fantastic for those who want to investigate what God thinks because they constantly don't have enough money or use their money to find fulfillment in places that really cannot satisfy and have begun to doubt the world's message.
An excellent place to begin to apply sound financial priniciples to your life.
