Success can mean different things to different people. The definition of success can change for a person at different stages of their life. A person's culture, family, friends, experiences, and environment can be a big influence on defining what success is to that individual. We all hear the stories of people failing and failing until one day they make it to the top, beat the bad guy or pass the trial. The story can also go that they got all they desired or raised up from the ashes. All of these have one thing in common, it is at the end of the story. It's never the beginning or middle. It's always at the end of the story that the person succeeds in their quest. But why does it have to be at the end? Simply, like how there is no good without evil. You can not have succeed without struggling and failing first.

Success to me is definitely an abundance of wealth; however, I believe that my strive towards this means so much more. My hard work will not equivocate to the stereotypical desire for materialistic happiness. I will need a lot more than that in life, because I know that true success is to provide for the people you love in order for them to be successful as well. Working hard to earn as much money as possible will allow me to help my parents buy the house of their dreams. Someday I will help my children go to any college of their choice no matter the cost. I want to be so financially successful that no one in my family will ever have to lose an great opportunity simply because we cannot afford it.

Business for the Glory of God is a book that helps Christians work in Business for God. Wayne Grudem did an excellent job of sharing and providing the purpose and meaning of business and ways to glorify God while conducting said business. The main themes Grudem talks about include; ownership, productivity, employment, commercial transactions, profit, money, inequality of possessions, competition, borrowing and lending, attitudes of the heart and the effect on world poverty. He kept his thoughts short and to the point, allowing for the important information to be shared with his readers. I agreed with all of his main thoughts, especially when he spoke about his discussion on money and attitudes of the heart; however, there is significant neglect in the area of government regulations throughout the book. In this review I will discuss the good and the neglect.

For each of the five purposes and main reasons why we should invest in God and the church, the pastor explained how they can mimic five financial funds that we can invest in. God’s treasury fund (use money to express worship to God, bringing us closer to God), God’s mutual fund (use money to learn to love other people, bringing us closer to people), God’s growth fund (use money to invest in growing by learning more about God), God’s equity service fund (use money to help the needy), and God’s global fund (use money to either go on a mission trip or help others go on a mission trip). Through these analogies he explained how investing in earths treasures we only pile up treasure on earth but by investing in God’s church, we are investing in

Having grown up in another country, I had the opportunity to observe and analyze the American consumer behavior from a more objective point of view than if I had been raised here. I could see that in comparison to where I came from, it was much easier to save money. Because money didn’t come easy living in Colombia, my spending was mainly for necessities. Therefore, I held on to my spending habits, and kept saving all I could. Nevertheless, looking back I wish I had known the principles presented in this course. I would have invested money, instead of just having it sit in the bank and being content with making a couple of bucks in interest per month. After all, I was getting more than what I put in there, and I was content with that. Anytime I would hear about investing, I felt that for me it would be like gambling, because I had no knowledge of where to put my money or why. I was not aware of the significant positive impact that it would have in my future, or that I could anticipate the outcome. On top of it, I justified not being concerned about my financial future by thinking I was just trusting God. However, now I have a very different perspective. God provides, and I trust fully in His provision, but like Dave Ramsey points out, God also wants us to take steps in managing that provision with wisdom, so that we may be able to help others who are in need; To be Christ’s hands and feet. Having the opportunity to give to others,
