What do you do with your money? What do you think of your boss? Do you like your work? Is it satisfying? Are you satisfied with your answers? Do you know that God, through Scripture, offers us answers? Two of the most fundamental challenges for all humankind are deciding how to live and, if we accumulate riches, deciding how to use them. Did you know that God expects all humankind to work? For the Christian, all work is part of your Christian calling, whether you collect garbage for a living or sit in Washington deciding affairs of state. And what does Scripture have to say about riches? Did you know that Jesus directed more attention to the question of how to deal with wealth than just about any other subject he addressed during his three-year ministry? Join me in this short journey as we explore work and wealth in Scripture and seek answers to the above questions and others. We travel from the first work recorded in the Bible to our own time, when leisure competes with work for our attention and wealth gives us a false sense of security that puts us in danger of replacing God with self.

God intends for everyone to thrive economically. He wants us to find provision (supply of what we need) for our daily life. He also desires for us to enjoy the abundance (wealth) of his generosity. However, we live and work in a world where some live extravagantly and have enormous wealth, while many others struggle to scratch out a living, going without even the basic necessities. Questions and concerns about God's role in our provision and wealth weigh heavily on almost every Christian's mind whether we are rich or poor, an employee or employer, a student, parent, or retiree, a homeowner, tenant, or homeless person. Fortunately, this concern for the economic sphere of our lives is matched by the priority it is given in Scripture. Provision and wealth are far from peripheral issues in the Bible and feature prominently through both Old and New Testaments.

God has commissioned us to work and create, to develop the resources he has given us and share with those in need. But what does that look like practically? This topical Bible study on provision and wealth contains tips and encouragement to live a life of generosity and fruitfulness, helping us to redeem our use of resources by nurturing biblical attitudes. Nine chapters, which can be studied individually or as a group, teach us about God's original intentions, the dangers of wealth, restoring the economic sphere, gratitude and contentment, changing our personal lifestyles, and aiding those in poverty. This Bible Study is Part of the Bible and Your work Study series. Each book contains Scripture references, thought-provoking questions, and prayers to help you explore what the Bible says about work and apply it to your life in positive practical ways. The lessons in each chapter are designed for thirty-minute lunch breaks although they can be used in other formats as well. The Theology of Work Project is a resource to help you apply the Scriptures and Christian faith to your work. It includes wisdom from over 140 contributors from sixteen countries who attest that although we often find ourselves trustrated, explained, or underappreciated as well work, God didn't intend it to be toilsome. So what was God's original plan for work? How do we claim our divine calling to work? Why does your work matter to God? By exploring the topic from Genesis to Revelation, we see a theology of work that shows us how to support ourselves, serve others, and find value in our vocations.

With Bible verses like "The love of money is the root of all evil" (1 Tim 6:10) and "It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God" (Mark 10:25), it seems, at first glance, that God does not want Christians to have money. But by paying attention to the positive aspects of wealth, and the responsibility that comes with it, you can feel empowered to grow rich, and do immeasurable amounts of good with it. The purpose of this book is to highlight the positive aspect of wealth, both as a tool and as a reward, and includes examples of rich people in the Bible, verses discussing wealth, poverty, and good work, as well as quotes by popular religious teachers. This book is a list of over 70 Bible verses and useful quotes that will encourage you and prepare you for the reward of God's blessings.

Discover how the joy of giving can make your life richer, starting today. Bestselling author Randy Alcorn introduced readers to a revolution in material freedom and radical generosity with the release of the original The Treasure Principle in 2001. Now the revision to the compact, perennial bestseller includes a provocative new concluding chapter depicting God asking a believer questions about his stewardship over material resources. Jesus spent more time talking about money and possessions than about heaven and hell combined. But too often we’ve overlooked or misunderstood his most profound teaching on this topic, from his words in Matthew 6. Jesus offers us life-changing investment advice. He actually wants us to store up treasures for ourselves—just not here on earth. Instead, he urges us to store our treasure in heaven, where they will await us, and last forever. We can’t take it with us—but we can send it on ahead! Readers are moved from the realms of thoughtful Bible exposition into the highly personal arena of everyday life. Because when Jesus told His followers to “lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,” He intended that they discover an astounding secret: how joyful giving brings God maximum glory and His children maximum pleasure. In The Treasure Principle, you’ll unearth a radical teaching of Jesus—a secret wrapped up in giving. Once you discover this secret, life will never look the same. And you won’t want it to be. “Supercharged with stunning, divine truth! Lightning struck over and over as I read it.” - John Piper, Senior Pastor, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis

This Working Wealth Book (Working Wealth) is written out of my passion, concern and desire to see Gods people become more fully developed, purpose-driven and more effective in the Kingdom of God. Our time is short and much must be done by the Body of Christ to make an impact and a difference on the earth. I firmly believe that as believers and individuals we need more personal development and a real understanding of true wealth. Wealth is not really about money, but rather the richness of our internal system which reveals who we are, our purpose in life, our gifts, talents, abilities and our God given assignment on earth. A truly wealthy person is a valuable and powerful vessel that is internally opulent and abundantly blessed. When we are wealthy we are overflowing with fulfillment, godly purpose, passion, delight and generosity. Jesus is our ultimate example and He said in John 10:10bAMP, I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance,(to the full, till it over flows). This is the true definition of wealth and we are assigned and entrusted to be examples of it. In Working Wealth, you will learn all about wealth. You will be given the resources to assist you in your personal development building so you can be a witness of Gods wealth. Personal development is the key to becoming a truly wealthy individual with all fruitfulness, prosperity, success and effectiveness of a wealthy person. Thank you for investing in yourself by purchasing the Working Wealth. I can promise you that this book will be a very powerful tool and resource towards building a fulfilling, energizing, exciting and edifying lifestyle. I have found that every person wants to be better, more improved and more effective. Personal development is the key to reaching those dreams, goals and desires that speak on the inside of you. Why should you live in weakness and lack, when you are full of treasure? Jesus said, in Matthew 25:14-15, For it is like a man who was about to take a long journey and he called his servants together and entrusted them with his property. To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his own personal ability. Then he departed and left the country. Personal development is taking seriously what has been entrusted to you and investing in it to produce a wealthy, more profitable you.

Is debt sinful? Will riches draw us further away from God? Is money really “the root of all evil”? Being raised in the church, entrepreneur, and critically-acclaimed author, Ryan Mix, grew up thinking the answer to these questions was ‘yes’ – that the Bible and money simply do not mix. But after business success showed him how money worked and how it can be used to create jobs, fund charities, and improve lives, he began to wonder whether the Bible really warns us against it or whether it has just been misunderstood. Through in-depth research and interviews with Biblical experts, Ryan set out on a spiritual journey to discover what the Bible actually says about money. His ground-breaking findings and perceptive, real-world insight have transformed his life, and are sure to revolutionize yours, as well. You will discover: • Age-old Scriptures revealing how money works in today’s economy • Why poverty is not a virtue and there is nothing wrong with being rich • An ancient Bible story illustrating how to use debt to your advantage • An answer to why the rich are getting richer while the poor get poorer • Why we will never have to choose between “God or money” • A radical mindset shift that unlocks the key to cheerful giving With a bold and humorous style, Ryan investigates some of the Bible’s most cited, and often misunderstood, money-related verses, revealing their original meanings and connecting them to today’s economy. Referencing and analyzing over 100 different Biblical passages, this extraordinary study could change the way you view money and life.
