You'll learn the P-Squares Decision Process along with the Attitude Sack and Medic Kit that provide the framework, tools and techniques for a renewed attitude. You'll enjoy work, create time for your family, and benefit from My-Time. This biblical view of success frees you to become the person God wants you to be. Experience God's grace, mercy, and peace as you begin tending to the important things in life rather than just reacting to the urgent-all for His glory!

What Readers Say About Managing God's Money books:

• We have been following many of the practices you mention [in the New Managing God's Money-The Basics] for quite a time now, but it was really neat to see someone outline things so clearly. Getting one's head around the idea that "all is God's and that we are merely stewards" is definitely a major "re-think". And it is fundamental--everything becomes so different. Sure leads one to be thankful, though! Judy, Ottawa
  
  
• Michel, I just wanted to let you know I am really enjoying your Internet site. I am also completely free from credit card debt finally (with a little help from your book [Managing God's Money-The Basics], actually a lot of help from your book and from God). I still have a lot of other areas I have to work on. One day at a time. - Khajak, Montreal
  
  
• I found your book [Managing God's Money-The Basics] in someone's cabinet here at the station, and I read it. It has totally changed my family's spending habits and financial stability. Here's how: I have put into practice most, if not all, of the things you propose in the book. Your PEACE budget worksheet is a staple of my life. I enlarged the sheet, and made lots of copies. It is my monthly staple now. I don't spend a dime without consulting the budget. Because of you and your ministry, we are aggressively paying bills, getting out of debt, and sowing more into God's Kingdom. Thank you Brother Bell. In Christ, - Jeremy, Buffalo

  Benjamin Franklin was right when he said, "Beware of little expenses: a small leak will sink a great ship."

  On a sunny Saturday morning, Pastor Jim and wife, Tracy- Ann, enter a department store and veer right – we do this instinctively, head right as we enter. About 10 feet in – merchants put promotion items there because they know that’s where we start to focus on shopping – they see the latest kitchen blender, the well-publicized Machoblend 700. They smile, glance at each other and start reading its features when a clerk appears:
