The Basics of Biblical Finance

It was great having Dave Ramsey at www.epicchurchlv.org today. OK, not in person, but larger than life on our 9×12 screen. He really knocked it out of the park on “The Basics of Biblical Finance.” I’m looking forward to the weeks ahead, and the continuation of equipping the church on proper stewardship of the resources that God has given us.

Here’s the outline that we covered, and feel free to ask any questions that you may have. I’m more than willing to point you in the direction of finding the financial help you may need.

“ The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender. ”

Dave will be coming live to us, and addressing the country on the difficult financial issues we’re facing.
