Cents & Sensibility - How Couples Can Agree About Money

Discover your “Money Personality” and that of your spouse - then get on your way to peaceable ways of saving and spending!

Book Summary

Conflicts about money are often the key source of arguments between couples. That’s because most of the time, spouses look at financial matters very differently. One might be a “saver” while the other is a “spender.” But neither one is necessarily “right” in the way they choose to handle family funds.

This is a relational guidebook to help married and engaged couples build (or rebuild) their relationship by working together on financial issues. With God's principles at work, there is hope for arriving at financial balance! Couples learn to understand and respect each other, and by communicating more effectively, can begin the journey to financial harmony - and joy!

Includes Readers’ Guide for personal reflection or group study!
