Generosity # 2
November 26, 2021
I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money
M Scripture is full of instruction on money. Practical instruction. When we have surplus to help others, we need to be wise. Note: I said surplus. Giving that jeopardizes your ability to provide for yourself is never wise.
V A good question to ask is this better done as a gift or a loan? Is repayment realistic? Can and will I forgive if they default? How will I feel? How would no repayment effect the relationship? What about interest if any and the rate?
M We recommend that you answer all these questions BEFORE you give funds, and also that you talk it over with a wise, godly person, perhaps your financial advisor. Remember its God’s and He holds us accountable.
