| 14. I have been studying Jesus' words about money, and I found that he was virtually always negative (or at worst "neutral"). The closest I found to a "positive" view of money in the gospels were the stewardship parables. But whatever those mean, they can't contradict Jesus' specific command "not to store up earthly treasures." Isn’t this true? |

| 20. As I have been listening to you on AFR for the past 6 months, I'm more convicted than ever of trying not to invest in companies that are displeasing to GOD and support causes with which I firmly disagree. I feel that I would rather have my money invested in something that would be honoring to my Biblical convictions while protecting the principle - yet not penalize me if I need it. What should I do? |

| 21. My husband (73) is considering applying for a $10,000.00 burial expense life Insurance policy (brochure is "modified term life" insurance) which is advertised for $79/month. However, being an insurance agent, he could get the same exact coverage for around $50/month. Do you see this as a good thing to do or are there other means of planning for burial expenses etc. that would be better? |
