Publisher Description

Who wants to settle for fleeting treasures on earth... when God offers everlasting treasures in Heaven?It’s time to rethink our perspectives on money and possessions. In this thoroughly researched and extensively updated classic, Randy Alcorn shows us how to view them accurately—as God’s provision for our good, the good of others, and his glory. Alcorn presents a biblical and comprehensive view of money and possessions, including the following: Why is money so important to God? Is prosperity theology right or wrong? How can we be liberated from materialism? What should we do about debt? How much does God want us to give? How can we best help the poor and reach the lost? What about gambling? investing? insurance? saving? retirement? inheritance? How can we leave our children a true heritage? How can we use money in ways that God rewards?  Insert disc 8 into your PC to access PDF study materials.

"Acorn applies his eternal perspective to the subject of money and, in he process, brings great clarity to the multitude of passages that speak of reward and treasure in heaven. This book will challenge you to store up treasure in heaven in new ways. Highly recommended!"
