Inspiring yet gently convicting

A great biblical foundation that will challenge and inspire you. The speakers captivate while providing some great insight.

Excellent

Excellent book, thoughtfully discusses a sensitive topic. Forthright, convicting, and eye opening truths. I highly recommend this book to others.

The Tithe or Grace?

Trying to use the new testament to prove you must tithe is requiring one to be back under the old laws, rules, and rituals. Paul covered this in Galatians and Romans. If you want to follow the law and any of the old worn out, obsolete covenants then you are choosing the Law for a savior and not Jesus. Giving is a Gift of the Spirit, Grace and a required tithe is a rule of law something we must do, therefore a work of the flesh.

Great insight on money

If you could sum up The Power of Money in three words, what would they be?

Insightful, practical, beneficial

What did you like best about this story?

Not really a story. input was instructional about the power of money and it's potential benefits and pitfalls in our lives. Presenters were very knowledgeable, had tremendous insights to share in a way that made it practical and meaningful to me in my life-situation. I drew many personal benefits from the material and have listened to it a few times so far.

Insightful and fresh
