quote to ponder...

As God's managers of the resources entrusted to us... how do you respond to the following quote?

"We buy things we don't need, with money we don't have, to impress people we don't even like."
- Dave Ramsey

Is there anything on your shelf, in your house, or in your car that you can see as an example of this? Now that we have talked about some of the theological and biblical understandings of Stewardship (God owns it all, we are His managers), how do we adjust the way we handle God's resources?

Let's get practical here.
Step 1 - Act your wage. If you can't pay for it, you shouldn't buy it.
Step 2 - Need versus Want. Asking this question will help prioritize our purchases.

more to come...
