SURVIVING FINANCIAL STORMS How to Become Financially Strong

This program of recorded church talks is a brilliant example of how a pastor can use compassion and conviction to teach difficult principles. Using analogies from the world of boating and an engaging speaking style, Hybels's first message is that giving 10% to God and 10% to a well-managed savings plan are essential parts of any long-term financial plan. The second half of the program is even better: a graceful lesson on discovering and aligning our true vocational purpose with traditional teachings on working for others and staying grounded about money. Hybels offers an immensely useful essay on how to balance life's moral priorities with the challenge of earning a living. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 03]
