You've got to tell your money what to do or it will leave.

I've got a young man who works for me who says you don't need to discover your dreams - you need to recover them.

You have to teach children about money intentionally - create teachable moments.

You don't want to have so much money going toward your mortgage every month that you can't enjoy life or take care of your other financial responsibilities.

I call this the great misunderstanding ? the idea that we give because churches need our money.

My children were taught at an early age how money works and that it comes from hard work. They've been on a commission - not an allowance - since they were little. They learned that if they worked around the house, they got paid. If they didn't work, they didn't get paid.
