A Dream (and Many Prayers) Come True

I don't usually use this space for promotional purposes, but I'm making an exception to announce that NavPress will soon publish my first book, "Money, Purpose, Joy." The book is about clarifying what's most important in life--understanding what makes our lives meaningful and joyful--and then allowing those priorities to guide our use of money. I've been dreaming and praying about writing this book for over 10 years, and I've spent the better part of two years writing and editing the book. It's been an amazing adventure--full of discouragement, elation, and many emotions in between--so I'm thrilled that the book will soon be available. And I pray that "Money, Purpose, Joy" will be used to impact many lives for good.

Matt's View

One reason for letting you know about the book right now is that this eNewsletter will soon start carrying an ad promoting pre-orders of the book. Pre-orders are important because they can impact retailers' decisions about carrying the book. So, in a twist on Chicago voting procedures, please order early and order often!
