Buy the Book: Biblical Principles for Money
Money affects nearly every part of life-yet many Christians feel constant pressure, confusion, or frustration when it comes to finances. Bills arrive. Needs increase. Decisions feel urgent. And peace often feels just out of reach.
In Buy the Book: Biblical Principles for Money, veteran pastor and Bible teacher Marvin McKenzie brings clarity where anxiety often reigns. Drawing directly from Scripture, this book does not promise wealth, shortcuts, or financial formulas. Instead, it offers something far more enduring: a biblical framework for handling money God's way.
This is not a budgeting manual or an investment guide. It is a practical, Scripture-anchored study of how God teaches His people to think about money, desire rightly, plan wisely, pray humbly, and live faithfully-regardless of income level or life season.
Each chapter is built around a key passage of Scripture and addresses a common financial pressure point faced by everyday believers:
- Learning contentment in a culture of constant want
- Understanding why money sometimes seems to "leak away"
- Recognizing the hidden cost of delayed obedience
- Making wiser purchasing decisions by counting the cost
- Praying for provision without anxiety or presumption
- Redefining prosperity according to God's Word, not the world's standards
From Luke's simple call to contentment, to Haggai's warning about misplaced priorities, to Job's powerful example of faithfulness in both abundance and loss, Scripture is allowed to speak plainly and practically.
Throughout the book, McKenzie writes with the steady voice of a pastor who has walked with people through real financial struggles-not theory, but lived experience. His approach is calm, honest, and reassuring. The goal is not perfection, but alignment. Not accumulation, but faithfulness. Not fear, but peace.
Money was never meant to be a master. When handled according to Scripture, it becomes manageable, purposeful, and far less intimidating.
_ Buy the Book_ is written for ordinary Christians facing ordinary financial challenges-families, individuals, church members, and anyone who wants to honor God with their resources without living under constant pressure.
If you are tired of chasing answers that leave you unsettled, this book invites you back to something solid, timeless, and trustworthy:
God's Word-by the Book.
