In our society the subject of money remains a controversial issue.  Regarding it, people from all walks of life and religious beliefs are generally divided into two camps.

On the one hand we have the money lovers, which includes Prosperity Teachers who  proclaim that God wants to bless his people with wealth, health and happiness and all we need to do is to apply faith. 

On the other hand we have the indifferent, ignorant and possibly - money haters.

Neither of these extremes are biblical! The Scriptures have a lot to say about our finances and the management thereof.

In fact, the Bible contains more than five hundred references to prayer and almost five hundred references to faith. But, did you know that there are more than two thousand references to money and possessions? 

Out of thirty-eight parables that Jesus told in the Gospels, sixteen deal with how we handle our money.  Jesus said more about money and possessions than about heaven and hell combined. One out of every ten verses in the Gospels deals with money or possessions.

No matter what your position on money is, your life is affected by it.

Come and listen to entrepreneur, businessman and pastor, Stefan Ohsiek who has observed and studied the concept of money for more than a decade. In a three lecture seminar he deals with the nature, future, and management of money from a biblical perspective.

Many have expressed the content to be eye opening, shocking, very meaningful  and at the very least, interesting!
