Financial IQ Part 2: How to Defeat Mammon?

You pay your bills. You tithe. You even budget. So why does money still feel like your master?

Jesus said you cannot serve God and mammon, and most Christians assume mammon is just an old word for money. Pastor Steve Cioccolanti, who runs a Financial IQ seminar for his own church, shows it is something more: a spirit that competes with God for your heart and has brought down more empires through debt than any army.

He gives four self-diagnostic questions to check whether mammon has any hold on you, then three practical steps to defeat it. One answer stings: if you still owe on it, does God own it? "If you don't own it, God doesn't own it."

You'll discover:

• What "mammon" actually means and where the name came from
• The four questions that reveal mammon's influence
• The one question every budget must answer before overflow reaches God

This is not for you if you want a comfortable sermon about money. Watch Part 2 of Financial IQ and make money your slave instead of your master.
