Have you joined the Great Recovery yet???

I am lovin' the things Dave Ramsey is sayin':


What's Your Political Position?


Election season is upon us, and with it comes a steady stream of promises for solutions and hope. Each party confidently assures us, "I can help you!" at every turn. Conflicting messages and even mudslinging abound.

Giving weight to this type of hype is unhealthy for anyone interested in true recovery. No matter what candidates and what party you support, now is the time for us to stand up with truths like these:

1. Our hope comes from God, not the government! It's great to support candidates who uphold our values, but we must remember not to give them too much power, even in our minds. Hope is not of this world, and God is still on his throne. Like Dave says, "No one can fill the role of savior except the guy with nail-scarred hands."

2. God has the ultimate plan: We all see the world through a unique set of filters, including political ones. Be as aware as you can of how those filters shape your own life and perspective. Choosing to look through a biblical filter helps us to keep the main thing the main thing. Think about it: How much will having a new president affect your day-to-day life?

3. We are the economy: Every candidate promises to have a plan to fix things. If we put our trust in them instead of God, it's easy to become apathetic and think we don't need to do anything. Yet, if we do nothing, any candidate will fail—because we are the economy! This country was founded on the principle of personal responsibility. If we, as a nation, fix our personal finances by applying God's principles to them, the nation will recover!

As part of The Great Recovery, we will not look to the government to solve our problems! Thanks for all you're doing to be a part of the solution.
