Jay – you make a good point that he is not ashamed to share his mistakes and expose his faith to the world. I was in the same boat and I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel and have become free of being ashamed of my financial situation. I realize that I am finding my passion by helping others to get out of a financial mess or prevent others from doing the same.

So far the reviews on Amazon.com are excellent and I hope to read the book soon.

As a personal friend of Matt Bell, I highly recommend this book. Matt and I talked last Friday about the goal of this book. Matt wants to appeal to not only the Christian community but also non-believers. When you hear or read about Matt’s passion for educating the public about how to find more joy in your financial life, it all leads back to Christ. Without purpose for your money, there is no joy!

The best part of the book are the lessons Matt talks about in Money, Purpose, Joy. He has made all the classic mistakes with money (getting into debt, spending more than he made)but he came out on top (saving enough money to pursue his dream job – speaking and writing). He is not ashamed to share his mistakes and expose his faith to the world. This is a great- must read book. Even if you don’t win one, go buy his book, It will help you find more purpose and joy.
