 Now, to be sure, God wants you to be financially free because that allows you to be more generous and to serve him more fully. Sadly, folks often say they'd love to give more to God's kingdom, but they just can't afford to. The more you control the money flowing through your household, the more generous you can be. And that's why we should all be on the road to financial freedom. So how do you know if you've made a wrong turn somewhere? Look for a signpost that says debt.
