Time to Make a Change

I could see it in people’s eyes this past week at worship. I could hear it in the voices of people I talked to after church. I read it in the e-mails we got this week. People are ready to make a change in their financial life.

What’s cool is that so many are wrestling with the spiritual questions that lie behind making a lasting change. They have gotten to the point where they know making a financial change takes a completely different view of money than most people have… Living within what God provides. Avoiding debt. Being prepared. Living generously. Knowing that it’s God’s stuff, not mine. Building wealth for all the right reasons.

I’m praying like crazy that many people trust God’s way of handling money and start to make changes. Not sometime down the road. Now! I believe that we will see a bunch of people at Summit who look back thankfully a year from now and only wish they had made a change sooner.

If you are ready to make a change, sign up today for Financial Peace University at Summit. Read books like The Total Money Makeover. Talk to our church office about meeting with a financial counselor. Teach your kids how to handle money using Financial Peace Jr. Discover the joy of giving by reading the Treasure Principle. Make today the day you swear off debt and begin saving for the future.

Whatever your next step is, trust God and take it today.

Pastor Nate
