Wealth, Prosperity and Giving
Money is something we handle every day. But how deeply does the Bible inform what we do with it? If we truly want to honor the Lord in how we use it, how should we be using our wealth?

Our approach can make us more like Him, full of contentment, purpose, and freedom, or it can cause a tragic separation from God and the joy he offers.
I Have known Larry Shaffer since 1981. I was a troubled young man without any sound Knowledge of God or the Bible. Larry began to mentor me to become a man who is simply devoted to Christ and to obey His Holy Scriptures. Because of Larry’s teaching, I have been in ministry for the past 35 years.
I believe this book,What I’ve Learned From Amazing Women of the Bible, will be a great tool for God to use in His church. My church has several large and small bible studies. I look forward to putting this book to great use.

As a modern career woman, I find it easy to become consumed with thoughts of work, food preparation, anxiety, child rearing, and household tasks. Reading this book reminded me that many women have struggled with similar challenges, and hearing their stories helps put my situation into perspective. In What I’ve Learned From Amazing Women of the Bible, I was reminded of the power of silent actions. At the end of some days, all I can do is pray. As Larry summed it up, yes, it seems prayer is inaction, but it’s actually a critical part of God’s plan of action for us.

I want some credit for browbeating Larry into sharing publicly the daily devotions that he shared with a few of us privately. Now we have a treasure of those devotional in a book: What I’ve Learned from Amazing Women in the Bible. I respect a man that deals with the pressures of serving in the senior executive team of a multibillion dollar public company and yet has found a way to share his Pastor’s heart. How can you not stop and take a curious pause on what he has learned about the woman heroes of the Bible.
