Getting Your Financial House In Order

by David & Debbie Bragonier with K. S. Gollnick


Our guess is that you probably have this book in your hand because you desire to get your finances in better order. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re an old pro -whether the repair work needed is minor or major-we each need help, education, encouragement, and accountability for handling money.

We appreciate your willingness to get your financial house in order. Your actions will benefit many—you, your spouse and family (or future spouse and family), and your community.

Keep your attention focused on the principles you learn in this book. It is easy to admire friends who appear to have their act together and who freely buy what they want. The media paints the same picture: You can have it all! However, statistics prove otherwise. The truth is that many people look good on the outside and seem to have financial freedom, but behind closed doors their world is in shambles. In our many years of financial counseling, we’ve seen this personally—people with lives full of stress, finances out of control, marriages hanging by a thread and children steeped in rebellion.

There are many opportunities and pressures bidding for your valuable time. However, nothing impacts your life more than your daily walk with God and your management of money and its related matters. God will bless you as you open your life to Him and His biblical principles, moving forward one day at a time.
