    Debt...Leprosy....

    Shun the incurring of debt as you would shun leprosy.—Letter 60, 1896. We are very blessed to have a Prophet that gives such excellent counsel on nearly every topic there is....debt included. I do believe things are going to get very bad, financially, in our world, soon....and if there ever...

    THIS is actually how democracy dies (sorry Padme')

    Heard it before, but considering where we've gone in the last couple years, I thought it was worth revisiting and sharing. "In 1787, while our first 13 states adopted their new constitution, Alexander Tyler who was a Scottish History Professor at the University of Edinburgh, said this about the...

    Why We Might Experience Hyperinflation

    Today it was announced that the deficit for the month in the United States was 864 billion. This more than doubles the May number of 400 billion and for the year the total is expected to be 3.7 trillion.

    Is Greed a mortal sin?

    As I understand it the Free Market is (was) an efficient mechanism for running the economy. It needed some add-ons to avoid some of the population starving or freezing, but for most people in the US and many other countries it worked very well. The idea is each person by pursuing their own...

    Are we morally obligated to pay the debts of the deceased?

    Before my mother passed away it was her intent that her debts pass away with her. After my mother died I helped my father resolve my mother's debt and he paid it off, as he felt it was his moral responsibility to do. My older sister just passed a way recently and, like money always does...

    I've always dreaded my wedding day.

    Most girls dream of walking down the aisle one day, with their family and loved ones around them but I sadly dread this day. To sum it up, my family is toxic. They leach off others, they hurt and abuse and they have never provided a loving environment in the 24 years of my life. Because of...

    Pray for Debt to Be Paid

    Fifteen years ago this Christian man and his wife borrowed our musical equipment because they had nothing to start their music ministry. It got stolen from their van. The man promised to pay us for the loss and never did. I have since located him again—didn't have contact with him for the past...

    Christians in the Money Twelve Step Groups (DA, UA, CLA)

    I am not sure if other Christians have tried to get recovery in these groups. I was involved for about five years but I found that it was hard to be in a very hard core group of people who were actively saying things against Christianity and professing a lot of New Age/Occult beliefs. I also...
