Editorial Reviews: "To all my friends, I have one cry! Read and re-read
this book! How I wish I could have had this material when we started out home...
and our church. It would have saved me many hours and days of distress... If
you are frustrated and in a financial 'house of mirrors,' Bob Katz shows you
the 'way out'..."

"I wish I had had this book when I began my healing ministry 53 years ago
as a young, unknown preacher with little money and even less knowledge of how
to fulfill Paul's statement: "The workman is worthy of his hire" (
I Timothy 5:18...) Humbly, but enthusiastically, I urge you: READ THIS BOOK,
STUDY IT, AND CHECK THE SCRIPTURES USED ALONGSIDE THE CPA'S FACTS. I say you
will advance your finances with skill and integrity and also your life lasting
peace and contentment."

"This is a very practical, common sense handbook that
every Christian should have. It gives a broad view of the financial landscape
and how Christians can be effective in their use of money. The information in
this book would cost a fortune if you had to get it from financial consultants
and seminars. And there is a pervasive Christian perspective here, too. I heartily
recommend Money Came by the House the other Day."

"It is difficult to estimate the value of the freedom
gained by anyone receiving this instruction. Our calling for stewardship of
God's provision is clearly defined and Biblically directed. I recommend this
book as required reading to all desiring to serve our Lord to serve our Lord
in personal life and public ministry."

Summary:
"Three years ago the lord began to deal with me regarding Hosea 4:6,' ...My
people are destroyed from lack of knowledge'. He revealed to me how a lack of
knowledge regarding financial stewardship is placing his people under tremendous
bondage. He then instructed me to write a book on Christian financial planning.
The book was to be thorough, easy to understand and entertaining.
Part One of Money Came by the House the Other Day is based on the Lord's instruction
to us in Proverbs 27:23-24, "'Know the condition of your flocks'. Its chapters
teach the reader how to organize and analyze their personal financial situation
in order to identify strengths and weaknesses and to take necessary corrective
actions.
Part Two is based on Instruction found in Ecclesiastes 11:1-2, 'Give portions
to seven, Yes eight'. Part two provides Bible-based instruction on topics such
as cash management, stocks, bonds, buying a house, educational expenses, buying
insurance, and retirement planning.
What helps to make this book unique is that the instructional chapters are separated
by fiction 'Vignette' chapters intended to speak to the heart of stewardship.
I pray that this book is a blessing to you."
