I was thinking after reading this book that there are virtually two categories of people today, regardless of their relationship with the Lord.  Some live life with open arms(and a sharing lifestyle)while others clench what they have tightly(despite enormous wealth)and refuse to part with earthly treasures- both money and possessions.  I then thought, through reflecting on this book, what a tragedy it is to allow fear and pride to grip our hearts and virtually paralyze us from fulfilling the Lord's commandment that "it is better to give than to receive."Author Heather Bixler will help you gain a perspective on money and earthly treasures from a Biblical mindset and provide scriptural remedies and practices you can apply to lead a life fully in the love of Christ.  When our focus, she shares, is centered on money, it will remain regardless of how much we possess.  This 4 week Bible study will enrich your life with daily activities to do based on selected Scriptures and group discussion questions.If fear of the future has gripped your heart and you have aimed at getting all you can, do not condemn yourself but allow this book to gently guide you to make adjustments that will lead to true prosperity in every dimension of your life.  The author is genuine in her approach and sincere in her aim and I leave you with a quote from her as follows: "The things we treasure will always define who we are and what we do with our life."
