If you are alive today, you matter, regardless of how you feel or position and title you may have right now. You have a dream that only you understand. You have a goal that seems audacious and to most, a wish. Consider what faith-based leaders did to build the church and spread the gospel of Jesus around the world through war and depressive times with no hope in sight. How do we apply some of those same principles to our business, our finances and our families?

We have been led to believe: The Kingdom of God is something that will manifest itself exclusively in the future on the other side of rapture; the Church is supposed to be confined to a building: the marketplace is the bunker of the devil and has to be avoided at all costs. These and other deceptions have driven us into a reactionary position. Since the devil cannot extinguish the light of God in us, he has tricked us into hiding it under the pews. What a contrast to what we see in Jesus, who always presented the Kingdom, the Church and the marketplace as integrated and interactive. 00:45:00Money Smart ShownoMatthew Sapaula,Business,John Heerhold,Christian,ChurchThe heart of Satan's deception has to do with our understanding of the kingdom of God, the nature of the church and the Church's role in the Marketplace.

However, it is a dog-eat-dog culture out there where many people can use you, your work and your effort as the climb to the top. In the meantime, many people can take credit for your work. True leaders understand that it is a privilege to be in a leadership or management position. They know that they can affect more people than those who follow them. Pride is a rooted in many character flaws. How can we get to the top without eventually self-destructing like so many of the leaders, celebrities and politicians we see today? Not to be naive here, just because you many attend church or read the Bible doesn't necessarily mean that you're doing things right. There is a difference between knowing and actually doing! We will review five steps in building a rock-solid character that we hope will bless you throughout your week.

Some even anticipate a large tax refund and will even pay a premium, in order to get their money now. Others will use this as their forced savings plan, their vacation money or get-me-a-new-flat-screen-TV now. Perhaps this will be how they pay off their Christmas debt. Either way, Uncle Sam loves you for it because he is able to use your money, stimulate his economy at the cost of your own personal financial security and ability to build your own financial independence. Never thought about your financial plan this way? Would you like to put your own money in your own pocket throughout the rest of the year, this time around? Time to rethink things!
