Back to the Basics: Giving

Last updated on: February 16, 2011 at 6:00 am   By Tim

One of the most prominent themes in the New Testament is that of giving. We find multiple verses that challenge us to be generous – which is a very good thing! The problem is that it can sometimes be intimidating to simply dive into these scriptures, especially if we’re new to the idea of giving. The reason it can be intimidating is because giving can seem unnatural at times. For someone who has never provided financial support for those in... Read more

5 Financial Arguments and How to Avoid Them

Last updated on: February 14, 2011 at 6:00 am   By Tim

Let’s face it; financial arguments can put a strain on your relationships.  It’s not that money itself causes financial fights – it’s the way both parties handle the situation. Since you don’t always have a say in the way someone else responds, the best way to control a financial argument is to reshape your approach and to avoid getting defensive right out of the gate. Not all financial arguments are created equal.  :) The way you approach your spouse, your... Read more

How We Made $240 With Our eBay Garage Sale

Last updated on: February 11, 2011 at 6:30 am   By Tim

Last week we were snowed in and decided to have a little garage sale. Yep, that’s right. A garage sale in the middle of winter. Ok, ok, we didn’t have an actual garage sale, but used eBay to sell some of our stuff and make a few extra bucks. At first, I didn’t think we had anything to sell, but it turns out we had enough to bring in an extra $240! Here’s a quick summary of what we sold:... Read more

Back to The Basics: Investing

Last updated on: February 9, 2011 at 7:00 am   By Tim

What Does The Bible Say About Investing? What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think about investing? Is it stocks, bonds, mutual funds, ETFs, or IRAs? Almost everyone knows about these types of investments today (to a degree) and considers it wise to invest your money into assets that appreciate, right? But what do the scriptures say about investments that we can actually apply towards today? None of these modern investing tools were even around back then!... Read more

How We Used TurboTax WITH a Discount

Last updated on: February 7, 2011 at 7:10 am   By Tim

This weekend was tax weekend. A part of me was dreading the time it’d take to do the taxes, but I was excited to see if we’d get some of our money back. Throughout the month of January, we put all the tax forms in a pile and tried to get as organized as possible. It paid off because I only spent about a half an hour sorting through the W2s, 1099 INTs and business receipts before I starting the... Read more

Back to The Basics: Debt

Last updated on: February 4, 2011 at 7:30 am   By Tim

Most of us have experienced debt in one form or another: home loans, car loans, student loans, credit cards, you name it.  Debt is binding, limiting, frustrating, controlling, annoying, burdensome, and most of the time it’s just plain foolish.  It’s no wonder that the Bible is full of scripture that warns about the dangers of debt and plainly instructs us to avoid borrowing.  Before you can free yourself from debt, it’s helpful to have a Biblical understanding of debt –... Read more
