Exploring the Philosophical Roots that Influence Financial Fruit

Exploring the Philosophical Roots that Influence Financial Fruit: A Christian Perspective is now available on Amazon. The blue title above takes you directly to the book’s page on Amazon.

This book provides a unique perspective on personal finance with a singular focus on the chosen foundation; that is, philosophical roots. Thus, financial fruit is based on philosophical roots. The reason financial plans frequently fail is because strategies are initiated to produce financial fruit without first preparing its fertile ground. We all appreciate the reality that financial ideas do have consequences, but more importantly financial ideas have antecedents. Antecedents here references preceding foundational beliefs or one’s worldview. In this book, we explore the Christian worldview as the very best foundation for life with a focus on personal finance.

Personal financial plans do not often fail due to flawed logic or lack of knowledge and understanding. Rather, these plans fail because they are pursued without solid theological and philosophical grounding. Like a pair of glasses, one’s worldview deeply influences the multitude of decisions made each day, especially financial decisions. Here we offer the Christian worldview as the only true one; hence, it will prove fertile ground for addressing life’s challenges especially those financially-related.
