Money, Mammon & the Monkey

By Peter J. Briscoe

Managing money is more than a technical exercise-it is also a spiritual discipline. Jesus identified an active power behind money and called it "mammon," warning his followers that they could not serve both God and mammon.

Drawing on the parable of the shrewd manager in Luke 16:1-15, Money, Mammon & the Monkey explores how money can influence our decisions and lead us away from God's purposes. Why did the master commend the manager for acting shrewdly? What can Christians learn from this challenging passage? How can we handle money wisely while remaining faithful to God?

In this book, mammon is pictured as an unruly monkey that seeks to damage our relationship with God and with others. Peter J. Briscoe explains the meaning of the parable and connects it with the financial choices Christians make every day.

Practical and thought-provoking, this book challenges readers to become faithful and shrewd managers of the resources God has entrusted to them and to use money in ways that benefit others and honour God.
