Thanks for sharing this post; it was exactly what I needed to hear right now! I have been struggling with "needing" to go back to work to help increase debt payoff and just make ends meet. I was thinking that maybe it's ok to just pay off the debt slower so we can have a peaceful home. Praising God for confirmation through this post!
I'm so glad it was helpful. I thought her approach was encouraging for families facing real life situations.
I honestly think some people make being debt-free and financial independence into a god. Debt is certainly a form of slavery which the Bible tells us. But it's possible to make a god out of the opposite and that isn't right either.
As she wrote, financial struggles may be a cross some people are called to bear in this life. Christian heaping shame on others for being in debt, often through no fault of their own, doesn't help the situation.
Thanks for your comment!
