Book Synopsis

This isn't where you thought you would be.

You were meant for more. Your money was meant for more. You and your money are meant for an exciting, adventurous, and satisfying purpose. God designed you, not to be a hoarder, but a conduit through which His generosity flows.

In The Money Challenge, Art Rainer takes you on a journey to financial health. But it is not simply for the sake of financial health. The Money Challenge was written to help experience God's design for you and your finances.

Welcome to the adventure. Welcome to The Money Challenge.

Review Quotes

"People have written at length about how to live debt-free or save for retirement, but few have written about the reason for doing these things. Why should you work to become debt-free? Why should you save for retirement? In The Money Challenge, Art Rainer gives clear, biblically-based, practical wisdom about why we should give generously, save wisely, and live appropriately.

The 30 money challenges are opportunities for you to put into practice what you have learned. They are simple, yet valuable steps to help you become a better steward of God's resources."

- Jimmy Scroggins, Senior Pastor of Family Church, West Palm Beach, FL

Pastors and church leaders: run to this book! I wish I had this book when I was a pastor. It is short, easy to read, and filled with practical steps to lead a congregation toward greater biblical stewardship. I would give a copy to every one in my church.
