Financial Stewardship
Andrew Wommack - 2012
Andrew discusses the influence of money in our lives and how it is very real. He teaches that Jesus taught more about managing resources than He did on prayer or even faith. He exposes the manipulation that sometimes goes on with Christian ministers and television and how you can be immune from it. Andrew Wommack's message is clear that even though there are abuses in the body of Christ regarding money, that you can still benefit from the truths in God's Word about finances. He believes that by fixing your heart, you deal with the root cause of financial situations and then money will care of itself. Once your heart is right, using wisdom in how you spend your money comes naturally.
