l AM NO authority when it comes to money matters.
Because this is true 1 have needed to seek help from those who are.
While I may not know much about the subject of finances, I am a fairly
good judge of character traits like integrity, authenticity, spiritual sensi-
tivity, biblical awareness, and genuine humility. When someone pos-
sesses these qualities in addition to professional competence in the
sometimes complicated world of finance, I sit up and take notice...
which explains why Ron Blue and I have cultivated such a close friend-
ship.
For quite some time I have admired his convictions, sought his coun-
sel, listened to his advice, and put his principles to the test. 1 have yet to
regret one moment of that process. He is a rare find in this day of rapid-
fire, hit-from-the-hip high-rollers who talk the language but fail to pat-
tern their lives according to scriptural standards. This is what I
appreciate most about Ron--he models his message. Quietly, graciously,
thoroughly, the man represents what he presents. Because he keeps it so
simple, even I can understand it! And that, my friend, is a minor miracle.
Over a year ago I suggested to Ron that he dedicate himself to pub-
lishing his material. It seemed a shame that such resourceful and helpful
information be available to so few. I am delighted he took up the chal-
lenge and disciplined himself to putting his valuable knowledge and
techniques into print.
His book addr4sses numerous subjects that are of interest to all of us:
developing a biblical philosophy of personal finances, taking advantage
of inflationary times, getting (and staying) out of debt, establishing finan-
cial goals, achieving financial independence, overcoming consumptive
spending, exposing many tax-planning myths, and cultivating the joy of
generous giving as God designed for His people--to name only a few. I
especially appreciate the practical, easy-to-understand approach Ron
