In this volume, Ray and Lillian Bair remind us that our money is not really our own; it belongs to God and we are managers of it.

God's Managers is more than just another family and individual budget record book, it also shares Ray and Lillian's own testimony in applying the biblical concepts of "firstfruits giving" and "overflow" in their money management. -From the foreword by Robert Yoder
