Tell us about your new book!
My book Finding Favor With Your Finances is the story of my journey and experiences with money. It includes 7 principles to guide women to financial security. Based on Biblical principles, the book and the Scriptures helped me overcome financial challenges. I want more women to be in a place of less stress and more blessed in their finances.
Why is it important that people of faith sharpen their financial habits?
There are many reasons people of faith need to sharpen their financial habits. There is a prediction in the financial industry that by 2050 there will be no more middle class. It will only be the lower class and the upper class. It is time to get more education and knowledge about managing money, investing money, and preparing for the future so we will not fall into the lower class. People of faith are directed by the Bible. The word of God says in multiple scriptures that we are to live in prosperity. That prosperity is in education and knowledge of the resources we have available to us here on earth.
