For many of us, finances are not our strong suit and they don’t excite us. In fact lots of people avoid talking about, or managing, their finances well because they simply don’t have the skills. But it doesn’t have to be as complicated as it often seems.
In conjunction with Alex Cook, through Wealth With Purpose, we have added some financial resources to our website – https://livingchurch.org.au/financial-resources/ (or under “Living Church is my Church” on the menu)
On there you’ll find the following:
– a simple budget tool
– a budget & cash flow planner
– a wealth tracker
– a debt repayment schedule
– a bill tracker
– info on Christians Against Poverty (CAP)
You may find all of these tools helpful, or possibly just one. You may even just use them to start conversations with your spouse/family members. Our prayer for us all is that we can get past the ‘tricky technical’ aspects of finances so that we can dig deeper into the heart of stewarding God’s money wisely.
We are looking into other stewardship resources, so stay tuned. But for now, we hope these tools are helpful and encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or would like someone to go through it with you.
