Let the Buyer Beware – Part 2
The average American family is burdened by massive debt, often due to foolish decisions they’ve made with their money. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Dr. James Dobson continues addressing the subject of financial stability with author and national radio host, Dave Ramsey. Dave describes how to live within ones means, and highlights the distinction between a want and a need. He quotes 1 Timothy 6:6-7 which says, “But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.” Dave reminds us to have a proper perspective about material things and the contentment that can only be found in Christ Jesus.
