The reason the Church is the best place for financial education is that it possesses God’s Word. In God’s word, we find true financial knowledge and wisdom. God has put His Biblical financial principles throughout the books of the Bible to show us how to manage wealth in a healthy way. It shows us how to spend wisely, save and invest diligently, avoid debt which is slavery, and give generously, which increases our joy and fulfillment. Best of all, we can trust the advice because it is from God who loves us and works all things for our good.es that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.
God isn’t poor and isn’t interested in us being poor. God is extravagant in his blessings and lavishes his goodness on those whom He loves. Therefore, any teaching from a poverty mindset is wrong and unbiblical. Paul said that “everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving” (1 Timothy 4:4). There’s nothing wrong with wealth and increasing it, as long as the reason for our work is to glorify God and do His will.
