Recently, I was listening to an interview with George Barna, one of the foremost authorities on statistics today. He was speaking about the changing nature of the church and how we as a people have turned into consumers of everything, including church. In other words, church has become a place we go to “consume” a spiritual fix and then leave and continue on for the week.

This video in Dave Ramsey’s “Momentum Theorem” series focuses on how our efforts are multiplied by God (infinitely) when we’re intensely focused over time on doing what He’s called us to do. There are certainly things that are out of an author and writer’s hands. After we finish our story, we leave it in God’s hands to spark a love for our work in an editor or agent as well as readers.

This video in Dave Ramsey’s “Momentum Theorem” series focuses on intensity.

FOCUS
- Focus is lost for two reasons: fear and greed.
- Fear can cause you to lose focus. It’s not a fruit of the spirit.
- You can get greedy for money, stats, fame, and more.

Financial expert Dave Ramsey is best known for his call-in talk shows on the radio and on FOX Business Network. Over the years he has helped thousands of people work their way to debt freedom. I have taken his Financial Peace University course twice–once with his original curriculum, once with the recently released updated curriculum. It’s fantastic as he really knows how to light a fire under families to become debt-free…a lifestyle in contrast to the current flow of our society.
But debt freedom isn’t the only message Dave Ramsey has shared. Last year I stumbled across a little known motivational talk More >
