God owns it all and [you] are stewards of His resources… Because you are stewards of the resources God has entrusted to you, every financial decision you make is actually a spiritual decision. For many, that’s a revolutionary concept. How you manage your finances is a pretty good barometer for the condition of your spiritual life.

— Dennis Rainey (b. 1948), Mitbegründer von FamilyLife, christlicher Autor, Redner und Radiomoderator

Dennis Rainey

Der US-amerikanische evangelikale Autor, Redner und Radiomoderator Dennis Rainey (* 1948) gründete 1976 das Ehe- und Familienwerk FamilyLife und prägte es über vier Jahrzehnte lang. Er vertritt eine komplementaristische Theologie traditioneller Geschlechterrollen, die ihm weite Verbreitung im konservativen Evangelikalismus, aber auch Kritik an patriarchalen Strukturen einbrachte. Bibellesern vermitteln seine Texte und Andachten praxisbezogene Ratschläge zur Beziehungsgestaltung, Eheführung und christlichen Erziehung.

What a person loves, that is their god. For they carry it in their heart, they turn it over day and night, they sleep with it and wake with it, whatever it may be — wealth or money, pleasure or honor.
