Synopsis

"Money never stays with me. It would burn me if it did.” John Wesley

John Wesley's eighteenth-century message about personal finance, 'Gain all you can. Save all you can. Give all you can.' is as radical today as it was three centuries ago. Perhaps more so.

Gain Save Give updates Wesley's words for today's concerned Christian, and for all who want their money and resources to make a positive impact for good in the world. As we look forward to a post-pandemic world, this practical guide will help you:

• Gain productively,
  
• Save efficiently,
  
• Give effectively.
  

Gain Save Give stands alongside best seller finance books by authors like Dave Ramsey and JL Collins, but focuses more on what we do with the resources with which we are entrusted. Each chapter concludes with some actions you can put into practice right away, so we can all get a little closer to using money for good.

'Peter Dixon's book takes John Wesley's thoughts and translates them for today's world. Wesley's genius is his absolute relevance for a contemporary world. I warmly commend this book to you.' Richard J Teal, President of the Methodist Conference.

'Engaging, considered, and thought-provoking..' Dr John McCabe, St Edmund’s College, Cambridge.
