"As long as we can make our payments, we're okay ... aren't we? To answer this and other provocative questions relating to your money, financial expert Russ Crosson teams up with gifted communicator Kelly Talamo to expose the common lies people believe about money. Through the use of everyday stories about men and women wrestling with financial decisions just like the ones we all make, Russ and Kelly refute these lies by revealing what the Bible says is the truth about money. Included are subtle lies that permeate out culture: we can't afford to give to our church or charity; what we do with our money is our own business; the more we have, the happier we'll be; my talents and abilities have produced my wealth; I can get rich quick."--Jacket.
