Who We Are

Welcome to Managing God's Money! We are a private, Christ-centered mission devoted to teaching individuals, couples, and groups to use money, time, talents, and other resources, for God’s glory and to further His Kingdom. We are not a charity, do not represent financial companies or sell their products; we do not seek funding, or charge fees for our services.

Managing God's Money's goal is to provide free advice from a Christian viewpoint, which we call Christian Financial Advice. Christian financial advice means presenting suggestions according to Bible principles. Christian financial advice is more than quoting a few verses and sending folks away. Christian financial advice tries to look at each situation through Messiah's eyes--remembering always His words in Matthew 16:26: What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul?"

Some folks tell us: if God is in control, why should we plan? Why should your 10 year old do anything--plan, go to school-- while living at home? In the same way, we expect them to live their lives according to our guidelines, so too, our Messiah Jesus wants us to live according to His blueprint, the Bible; but we don't have to! We believe in Christian financial planning: surrendering all to Messiah and asking Him to direct our path. Christian financial planning does not present our wishes to God, trying to change Him to our ways. Christian financial planning seeks first to know God's goals--where He is active in our lives-- and then, looks at ways to adjust our lives to His goals. That's why we stress lifestyle management. At no cost to you, we are pleased to assist you when you contact us about Christian financial planning matters, such as budgeting, goal setting, and becoming debt free.

Folks must decide with or without Christian financial planning experts, how to use funds wisely. Do you use 401Ks or Registered Retirement Savings Plans (RRSPs) to repay mortgage? In Canada, your mortgage is after tax, but RRSP income is before tax... more.

The Bible has answers to life's issues. It's a source of help; help with finances--Christian financial help. You can search the Bible, by typing a word or phrase in the appropriate section of this website to know what it teaches about money or other matter. The Bible can provide needed Christian financial help. Christian financial help is not necessarily getting more money. Christian financial help could be a reminder of your favourite bible verse. But be careful; don't lift a verse and claim it; interpret the Bible in context: paragraph, chapter, whole Bible. Reflect on these words:

Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed (Proverbs 16:3).

Tithing under the Mosaic Law applied to Israel alone, and to agricultural produce and livestock only, during a particular period. It dealt with Israel's social and religious arrangements at the time. Jesus' death and resurrection fulfilled the tithing law, removing the need for animal sacrifices to remove sin. Besides, Jesus replaced the temporary Aaronic office of High Priest (Hebrews 7 & 8), with a permanent priesthood (Hebrews 7:24).

The GAS Principle highlights the need to allow God to guide distribution of 100% of His funds-- rather than a tithe (10%). It reflects giving under the New Covenant (2 Corinthians 8-9), which I call keeping, a lifestyle that starts with a personal relationship with Messiah, accepts His ownership of 100% of everything, and stays close to Him to learn where He wants time, talent, and money invested, to further His Kingdom.
