If you ask any young married couple to tell you their biggest source of stress, chances are they will mention money.  Money is by far the biggest issue affecting twenty-something married couples who are starting a life together, and how they deal with it will affect the health and longevity of their marriage.  Learning to handle money wisely is one of the most important life skills you will ever learn, especially if you plan to get married someday and start a family of your own.  That’s why so many engaged couples are reading a new Christian budgeting book called Money and Marriage: Complete Guide for Engaged and Newly Married Couples.  According to a few youth directors and pastors I know, this book should be required reading as Christian couples plan their life together.

Believe it or not, God has a lot to say about money in the Bible.  One of the most common memory verses is “For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10), but few people get to know the rest of the verse, which says: “Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.”  This may sound dramatic to a young person’s ears, but anyone who is now divorced as a result of money struggles will recognize themselves in this verse.  The bestselling Christian budgeting book, Money and Marriage tackles this issue head-on, revealing how married couples can learn a lot about money through the Bible. 

There may be no such thing as a marriage that is not affected by the realities of personal finance, but couples can learn to approach their financial life with God’s wisdom.  Using a 10-step plan of action, young couples learn how to set their financial priorities, make the most of each other’s strengths, and become good stewards of their marital assets. Christian financial advisor Matt Bell uses practical knowledge, scriptural references and old-fashioned good humor to engage readers in developing realistic financial strategies.  Couples who follow this plan are able to minimize stress and maximize the positive aspects of their relationship. 

Find out how you can learn the life skills you need to improve the financial picture in your marriage, while taking care of your most important relationship.  This Christian budgeting book will give you a scriptural basis for taking a strategic approach to money and help you and your spouse find a life purpose that fits into God’s plan for your life.
