Stop Robbing Peter to Pay Paul, by Dr. Vicky Spring Love

That is because the problem was not money," Dr. Vicky Spring Love writes in the opening pages of Stop Robbing Peter to Pay Paul. Money problems or difficulties that we may be experiencing is a reflection of a heart condition. How you use your money is a reflection of your relationship with God, your family, other people, and how you feel about yourself and circumstances around you.

This God-centered money management book is divided into three sections: Attitude, Budget, and Contentment. In section one on Attitude, Love encourages us to view our finances from God's perspective as we consider the question of what motivates us to make money but more importantly, what motivates us to want to spend money, sometimes more than we make. Love discusses ways to break the spirit of debt and how to unlock financial blessings in our lives.

In the second section on Budget, Love shows us strategies to make a budget work for us painlessly. A budget is nothing but a concrete plan for wisely managing our finances, but somehow we tend to  view it as a thing to be feared. 

In section three on Contentment, Love shows us how that the correct attitude with a stick-to-it budget will lead to contentment. We must take control of our finances and not the other way around. Stop Robbing Peter to Pay Paul will lead us to take an honest look at why we handle money the way we do, how to clean up our credit, and how to break the debt curse. The beauty of it all is, we can find contentment in our finances.
