[(When Knowledge Isn't Enough)] [By (author) Marc Follin] published on (July, 2010)

Résumé

Have you been in a major bookstore lately? Have you looked in the section marked "Finance"? There are rows and rows of books, all lined up neatly by author, just waiting to be bought. Books that have plenty of knowledge about finances: how to do a budget, how to live within your means, how to save money, how to organize your money, how to make more money... The same is true about books on dieting and exercise. Rows and rows and rows of books just bursting at their seams with everything we could ever want to know about how to diet: what to eat, what not to eat, and the correct exercise to get rid of extra pounds in just the right places on your body. So wouldn't you think that with all those books and all that knowledge that we would be the skinniest, healthiest and WEALTHIEST people on the face of planet earth? We wouldn't have any financial worries. We wouldn't struggle with giving to God, sharing with others, or spending money on things we simply want and then not having the money to pay for what we really need. Then why aren't we? When aren't I? Why aren't YOU? If all we need is knowledge - and there's plenty of that available - why are we still struggling? Because knowledge isn't enough! Marc Follin has been in the insurance and financial services industry for 27 years. While working with people over those years to help them put their finances in order, she has seen common struggles and issues keeping people from being able to succeed in this area despite their knowledge of what they should do. This, coupled with her knowledge of the Scriptures, has led her to understand the real reason behind financial struggles.
