30 Money Talk Avoidance

I’m Miriam Neff and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan with Wise Women Managing Money.

M Scripture talks about money at least 1,000 times. A topic second only in references to love.  That means money is important to God.  He entrusts it to us.  An important assignment. 

V How many people, including couples, avoid talking about money?  The evil one loves this avoid thing.  That means money goes to places that are not important, or even our preferences. Marriage is a partnership.  I Corinthians 4:1-2 says we should be trustworthy with God’s resources and with each other.  Partnership in money is an important part of that trust.

M Pray together first, start the discussion.  Larry Burkett’s Journey to Financial Freedom is a great resource.
