Today on Pastor Rick's Daily Hope, we continue in our series called Financial Fitness.

In these lessons, we'll learn what God says about our finances and how to have true financial

freedom.

In just a few minutes, we're going to tell you about a tool you can use at home to help

you gain true financial freedom.

It's called the Financial Fitness DVD and Workbook Study Kit by Pastor Rick Warren.

And you can take a sneak peek right now by going to pastorrick.com or by texting the

Right now, here's Pastor Rick Warren with Part One of a message called the Law of Contentment.

We're going to now spend some time talking about getting yourself financially healthy,

seeing yourself financially fit so that no matter what happens in the economy around

you, that you're doing well.

Now the Bible is full of money management advice.

I don't know if you know this or not, but there are two books of the Bible, particularly

ones called the Book of Proverbs and the others called the Book of Ecclesiastes, which are

filled with the laws of money, the principles of prosperity, the rules for wealth.

Now let me make it very clear, we are not a quote, prosperity gospel church.

We are not.

We do not believe that God wants everybody to be a millionaire.

We don't, in fact, Jesus taught the exact opposite of that.

But the Bible is filled with principles that He says, if you will do it God's way, then

you get God's blessing on your finances.
