Faithful Finances 101
From the Poverty of Fear and Greed to the Riches of Spiritual Investing
By Gary D. Moore
In a world where financial advice often conflicts with spiritual values, Gary D. Moore offers a refreshing perspective that challenges believers to examine the intersection of faith and money management. Drawing from his extensive background as a senior vice president at Paine Webber and founder of an investment firm dedicated to ethical investing, Moore presents a compelling case for integrating biblical principles with practical financial wisdom.
This thought-provoking work takes aim at popular evangelical financial teachings that Moore argues rely on fear-based messaging and misinterpret scriptural guidance about money. Through his first-person narrative, he shares insights gained from five decades of studying the Bible alongside politics and economics, creating a unique framework for understanding wealth from a spiritual standpoint.
Moore's central message revolves around the concept of faithful stewardship, encouraging readers to view their entire financial lives as opportunities for spiritual growth and service. Rather than focusing solely on tithing ten percent, he advocates for a holistic approach where believers consider how to honor God through one hundred percent of their time, talents, and financial resources.
For those seeking to align their economic decisions with their spiritual convictions, this book provides both critique and guidance. Moore's professional experience combined with his deep biblical scholarship offers readers a pathway toward financial practices that serve not only personal prosperity but also the greater good and divine purpose.
