Money, Money, Money

That got your attention didn’t it? Most people think about money a lot. I know I did and at times I still do. My wife and I have been missionary pastors for 25 years living by faith and trusting God to meet our every need. When we started out in ministry we lived off less than $20,000.00 a year to support a family of 4. Through the years we have owned 3 houses, put our daughters through Esthetician and Cosmetology school ($38,000.00), bought them their first car, paid for their weddings ($40,000.00), set up their Roth Ira accounts and today we are debt free. We are still living on faith and trusting God for all our needs. In the blog posts to come I will share with you the miracle stories of how God provided the finances for all of this. We have followed the principles of finance written in the word of God and I can tell you with my whole heart God’s word is true! He is a promise keeper and He never changes. I’m not just going to share with you stories of financial success but I am going to be totally vulnerable and share with you the times I disobeyed God with our finances, the money it cost me, and the lessons I learned. I am an older man now, I have lived an amazing life and feel an obligation of love to share the lessons of my life with you. God is no respecter of persons. That means He has no favorites (we are all His favorites) and what He has done for me He will do for you. He won’t do it in the same ways He did it for me but He will do great financial things for you as you learn His principles of handling money and apply them. I can’t wait to blog again as I have so much to tell you.

Blessings to you in the SON,

Pastor Mike E
