Andy Stanley - How to Be Rich: Its Not What You Have. Its What You Do with What You Have.

For Howard Bowen.
You certainly know how.

You know what the problem is about handling money Gods way? It works. If you handle your money the way God tells you to in Scripture, youre going to build wealth. But if you dont have the spiritual and emotional backbone to carry that wealth, it will destroy your life. In How to Be Rich, Andy lays out clear principles for carrying that load, making sure your wealth remains a blessing not just for you, but for your family and community for generations to come.

My friend Andy has been teaching his churches this material for years. I am so grateful he has chosen to make it available to a broader audience. I know from my personal interaction with Sandra and Andy that this is not theory. This is how they live their lives and manage their personal finances. My hope is that the message of How to Be Rich will permeate our culture and spark a revival of Christ-centered generosity and stewardship.

John C. Maxwell, leadership author and speaker

When Andy originally presented this content to his churches, I asked for the outlines and repreached it to mine. When he told me he was publishing this content, I told him I would do everything I could to get it into as many hands as possible. Thats how strongly I feel about this content. Buy it! Read it! Pass it on.

How to Be Rich is liberating, fresh, convicting, and wise. It is a radical message in a friendly voice, and it could change your life.

John Ortberg, senior pastor of Menlo Park Presbyterian Church, and author of Who Is This Man?

Andy Stanley provides with How to Be Rich the most fundamental and fresh biblical approach to generosity, wealth, and stewardship. This is a revolution-starting, game-changing book. Our use of time, talent, and treasure is paramount to leading well and leaving a legacy. This message and book will change our churches, communities, and our culture for good. Its mandatory reading!

Brad Lomenick, author of The Catalyst Leader

Our culture bombards us with messages designed to make us feel deprived of more stuff, while half the world lives on less than two dollars a day. Andy makes a fresh, compelling case that the first step to following Jesus call to be wise and generous stewards is to recognize that we are already rich. Only then will we discover the joy and freedom of putting our trust in God and not our bank accounts.

Jonathan Reckford, CEO,
Habitat for Humanity International

In a culture that sees money as the way to happiness, Andy Stanley explains that the real value of money is that it provides the opportunity for us to make a difference beyond ourselves. Reading How to Be Rich will unlock the message of why God so richly provides for us, and will teach you not to trust in riches but in him who richly provides.

An old hymn says, Jesus is all the world to me my life, my joy, my all. If you cant touch that reality deeply but want to, read this book. Careful though; it might change you and your world for good in ways you never imagined.
