Every Bible verse on finances, all in one book In a world of shifting economic realities, few financial equations last very long. In the marketplace, countless writers, analysts, and con artists clamor for the public ear. Whose voice can we trust? Which financial principles will stand the test of time? The Word on Finances sorts through the clamor of advice, plans, and ideas to bring us back to the final word we most need to hear: God’s. Author Larry Burkett has organized an invaluable collection of relevant Scriptures into one easy-to-reference volume. Topically arranged New American Standard Bible passages and a concordance focus attention on 70 areas of finance and stewardship, all grouped under 8 headings: Right attitudes Wrong attitudes Credit Giving and providing God’s blessings and curses Investing Work and Wages Government Borrowing, bribery, planning, saving, taxes, and more—if the Bible mentions it, it’s in this book. With Burkett’s practical wisdom opening each topical selection, The Word on Finances is a go-to guide for spending money wisely and in a way that honors God.

In Nothing to Fear, Larry Burkett tells his personal journey of a seven-year battle with cancer. Filled with intimate stories and wisdom from the Word, this book will be a great help to the thousands of people who fight this disease, or to friends and loved ones of those in the midst of the struggle. Larry's 2003 passing was the result of heart failure rather than cancer. His legacy continues today and his words still bring hope to those in need of encouragement. "Even if you can avoid dying from cancer, you'll certainly face something else that will eventually kill you, because all of us are going to die. As god as modern medicine is, it is not the ultimate answer. It will let you down. Trusting God is the answer. He will never let you down."--Larry Burkett
