BenBella Books, Inc., Apr 7, 2015 - Business & Economics - 368 pages
The truth shall set you free. Ignoring it will cost you a fortune.

It has become clear that we are living a lie, and it has brought devastating results: Bankruptcy among churchgoers is equally as high as those who don't attend. Financial misconduct is destroying marriages, families, individuals, and churches. A record number of churches are in foreclosure.

The church teaches us it's normal to have student loans, car payments, mortgages, and credit cards. It calls poverty a curse but isn't doing much to correct the problem, and it focuses on tithing and the elimination of personal debt—but debt elimination is not enough.

Wouldn't you rather thrive in your finances and live the life God has called you to?

Evangelpreneur will teach you:

How to get your financial life to line up with your faith life

How to save your family and your church from financial ruin

How to recognize if God is calling you to entrepreneurship

How to use proper financial practices to lead people to salvation and do God's work on earth

For too long, the faithful have been held hostage by false teaching, bad teaching, and the poor practice of good teaching. It's time to break free from the bondage tied to financial issues and become an Evangelpreneur.
