Understanding Financial Stewardship

A fresh look at faithfulness and money management.

The Bible relates to every area of our lives, including the acquisition and use of money and material possessions. Scripture has a great deal to say about wealth and poverty and what makes a person rich or poor. It contains eternal truths about the importance of giving, the necessity of receiving, and the way to prosperity.

In Understanding Financial Stewardship, Dr. Charles Stanley provides a fresh perspective on the place of money in the Christian's life, the source of your prosperity, and the role of work. You'll learn what God has to say about debt and the dangers of placing too much value on this world's material things.

With over 1 million copies sold, the Charles F. Stanley Bible Study Series is a unique approach to Bible study, incorporating biblical truth, personal insights, emotional responses, and a call to action.

Each study draws on Dr. Stanley's many years of teaching the guiding principles found in God's Word, showing how we can apply them in practical ways to every situation we face.

Each of the ten lessons includes:

• A brief look at what is covered in the lesson.
• A teaching from Dr. Stanley that unpacks the topic of the lesson.
• Application and Bible study questions based on the key points.
• Key takeaways to put into practice today and tomorrow.
