Lee Jenkins on Money: Real Solutions to Financial Challenges

by Lee Jenkins

An unstable economy. A shaky stock market. Businesses facing huge financial losses. People losing their homes, jobs, savings, and...hope?

Is the sky falling in? Some feel that way. Is God still in control? Others wonder as they see and experience fallout from the greed and corruption that is seemingly pushing our nation to the brink of bankruptcy. 

In Lee Jenkins on Money , financial analyst Lee Jenkins answers questions about the nation's changing economy and other financial matters readers may be facing in the midst of this difficult financial climate. He helps them take a sober and responsible look at their finances and challenges them to be faithful stewards over what God has entrusted to them. Lee shows that by looking at life from God's perspective and applying biblical principles to their finances, readers bear witness to the fact that God is still in control and there is still hope.

Reviews

[Dewayne]

This book provides practical financial advice to help address a broad range of financial topics. I read this book as part of a eight week financial class with my church and found the content relevant and easy to consume. We did not read the book in direct order, but mapped the chapters to the topic for the week. The structure of the book has a brief summary at the beginning followed by a questions and answer portion addressing the common questions on each topic. I found Chapter 6 Romance and Finance to be my favorite. It was straightforward and super funny at how relatable it was to my situation as a married man. Recommend this book to anyone looking to improve their finances.

Great book!! Touched on a lot of topics that I needed some knowledge on such as housing, teaching your children how to save money and living wills/trust accounts.
