Charting a Course in Your Youth (Kingdom Focused Finances) - Softcover

Charting a Course is a call to youth who are serious about following Jesus, especially in finances. It is designed to help them develop a Christ-centered focus early in life and find their way through society’s confusing swirl of gray. Using illustrations from his experience in flying airplanes, Gary points youth to timeless foundational biblical truth. The many stories capture the reader’s attention, and young people will find it engaging reading.

Gary Miller has had a growing passion to help Christians use their personal finances to build God’s Kingdom. He also works with the poor in Third World countries and started an experimental microloan program in Haiti. As part of this program, Gary wrote a teaching manual designed to provide both spiritual and financial teaching. After Christian Aid Ministries took over this microloan program (SALT Microfinance Solutions), they recognized that the Scriptural principles in Gary’s manual were just as pertinent for our American Anabaptist communities, and asked him to write this book. Gary was raised in an Anabaptist community in California and lives with his wife Patty and family in the Pacific Northwest. He worked in construction all his life, but now focuses his time and energy on writing and helping find sustainable solutions for the poor.
