Who wants to settle for fleeting treasures on earth...
when God offers everlasting treasures in heaven?
It's time to rethink our perspectives on money
and possessions. In this thoroughly researched and
extensively updated classic, Randy Alcorn shows us
how to view them accurately—as God's provision
for our good, the good of others, and his glory.
Alcorn presents a biblical and comprehensive view
of money and possessions, including the following:
Why is money so important to God?
Is prosperity theology right or wrong?
How can we be liberated from materialism?
What should we do about debt?
How much does God want us to give?
How can we best help the poor and reach the lost?
What about gambling? investing? insurance? saving?
retirement? inheritance?
How can we leave our children a true heritage?
How can we use money in ways that God rewards?
This practical and refreshing theology of money
contains topical and Scripture indexes, a study guide,
and five helpful appendices.
Endorsements
Money, Possessions and Eternity has affected my
life and ministry more than any other book besides
the Bible. My heart's desire is that every believer
would read and reread what God has put upon Randy's
heart. If in fact that happened, there would never
ever be a lack of finances in any legitimate ministry
anyplace in the world. Knowing Randy as I do, I know
that this message is his life and his life is this
message. It's a privilege to endorse this book. -

For the last thirteen years, Money, Possessions and
Eternity has been my textbook on how I should manage
my finances and giving. This book has helped me determine
how best to help the poor, how to keep from hoarding,
how to maintain right priorities, and how to understand
what the Bible says about eternal rewards. Randy Alcorn
is a very perceptive guide— I welcome this fresh
new revision of a life-changing book.

Money, Possessions & Eternity is a book
destined to impact generations. It is a classic study
of what God wants us to know about handling money
with eternity in mind. I heartily recommend it.

Wow. Alcorn's book is a rallying cry for every Christian who is trying to be "in the world but not of it." Loaded with Scripture and thought provoking insight, this is a book I will be referring to and passing on to my friends and family. - B. B.
A
Pastor's letter to his congregation regarding Money,
Possessions & Eternity
Dear
Fellow Sojourner,
What can I do to get you to read this book?
I have read thousands of books in my lifetime. Only a few have
impacted me profoundly, and only a handful changed my life.
This book is in that category. After reading this, I sat down
with my wife and told her how important I think it is that
people read it. I've never done anything like this in my life,
but after prayer and serious deliberation, we committed our
personal resources to provide this book for you.
