Bach&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-drop-cap has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Many years ago, I&nbsp;helped&nbsp;students at Open Bible College obtain bank loans for&nbsp;their&nbsp;college expenses. This was before&nbsp;the college&nbsp;gained eligibility for federally funded student grants and loans. The college had an arrangement with a local bank that allowed us to write up documents for loans, within predefined parameters, and send students to the bank to formalize the contracts. In essence, the college co-signed for the loans, which meant we assumed the risk if students defaulted on their loans. A few did default,&nbsp;but thankfully, most students did not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After performing this service with students for a few years,&nbsp;I found that the experience began gnawing on my insides. That is because many&nbsp;of the students were&nbsp;straight&nbsp;out&nbsp;of&nbsp;high school,&nbsp;so na\u00efve,&nbsp;so&nbsp;excited to move forward with&nbsp;the&nbsp;big step of&nbsp;entering&nbsp;college, and willing to sign on the line for virtually any amount of money&nbsp;they could borrow.&nbsp;I&nbsp;looked into&nbsp;their young faces, recognizing that many of them were unprepared to deal with the cost of&nbsp;repaying that&nbsp;debt.&nbsp;For many students, it never occurred to them that they would have to invest time and labor to pay back money&nbsp;they borrowed.&nbsp;They had little to no experience in managing their own finances.&nbsp;To them,&nbsp;payback&nbsp;was way off in the future. Everything was OK for today; let tomorrow take care of itself. Some students were&nbsp;more&nbsp;mature as they&nbsp;diligently&nbsp;monitored their debt and kept it to a minimum. My concern was for the students who, even after hearing my explanation about what would be involved in paying back a loan, seemed oblivious to that reality. I could tell that&nbsp;my counsel&nbsp;went&nbsp;in one ear and out the other in terms of awareness. Eventually, of course, they would all learn about the discipline and time necessary to service debt&nbsp;they had assumed.&nbsp;In many of their cases, no one else would be&nbsp;standing by to pick up the responsibility; they owned it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In that era,&nbsp;I was bothered by what I saw as naivete&nbsp;about debt&nbsp;in&nbsp;some of the&nbsp;young students.&nbsp;Yet today I&nbsp;still&nbsp;see people, not just young ones, willing to embrace&nbsp;enormous&nbsp;debt without reluctance.&nbsp;That&nbsp;naivete&nbsp;has not changed.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><span style=\"color:#a27c15\" class=\"has-inline-color\">The Apostle Paul wrote, in Romans 13:8 (NIV), <em>\u201cLet no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;Clearly, we are to work at eliminating financial debt.&nbsp;One of the greatest blessings that occurs because of faithful personal stewardship of finances, which includes meeting and reducing debt obligations,&nbsp;is freedom to be obedient to the Lord with tithes and other generous giving.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Debt is not automatically evil.&nbsp;Entering into&nbsp;debt to purchase an asset that can appreciate in value, such as a home, can be a good investment if it does not exceed&nbsp;one\u2019s&nbsp;capacity to service the debt.&nbsp;Unexpected loss of income and unanticipated expenses&nbsp;such as&nbsp;medical bills can place a family into an unhealthy&nbsp;debt position. They may be hard-working and conscientious people caught in a situation&nbsp;beyond&nbsp;their control&nbsp;with&nbsp;no choice but to assume debt in response. However, irresponsible financial stewardship of resources, whether those resources are large or small, is a choice that can lead to disastrous debt&nbsp;that&nbsp;can feel&nbsp;like a millstone around the neck for much of life&nbsp;and&nbsp;lead to&nbsp;financial downfall.&nbsp;Sadly, it isn\u2019t always low-income people who struggle with excessive debt; there are also people with adequate incomes&nbsp;<em>who spend beyond their income<\/em>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dave Ramsey\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Financial Peace University<\/em>&nbsp;teaching is a product for our time. His instruction is in demand because the need is great; many Americans are carrying the weight of heavy debt! Ramsey\u2019s approach is to train people to tell their money where it should go rather than letting their money tell them where it will go&nbsp;\u2013 simply&nbsp;powerful because it is powerfully simple. Ultimately, we must assume responsibility for and take control of personal financial management.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Bible presumes&nbsp;people will have&nbsp;debt. The Apostle Paul wrote, in Romans 13:8 (NIV), \u201cLet no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another.\u201d&nbsp;Clearly, we are to work at eliminating financial debt.&nbsp;One of the greatest blessings that occurs because of faithful personal stewardship of finances, which includes meeting and reducing debt obligations,&nbsp;is freedom to be obedient to the Lord with tithes and other generous giving.&nbsp;Psalm 37:21 (NLT) instructs us, \u201cThe wicked borrow and never repay, but the godly are generous givers.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The key consideration is not how much money we make but what kind of stewards we are with&nbsp;the&nbsp;money we have.&nbsp;We should not view debt&nbsp;as&nbsp;an inevitable burden of life. It&nbsp;is&nbsp;something&nbsp;we should undertake only&nbsp;with&nbsp;great caution, with the intent of repaying&nbsp;it as quickly as possible. Our goal should be to&nbsp;reduce&nbsp;or&nbsp;to completely&nbsp;break free of&nbsp;debt and its burdensome&nbsp;interest&nbsp;payments, which&nbsp;can imprison&nbsp;us.&nbsp;It may take&nbsp;some time, but&nbsp;consistent stewardship of finances&nbsp;really can enable&nbsp;your&nbsp;family&nbsp;to embrace&nbsp;financial freedom.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Randall-Bach_2021-LR.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17528\" width=\"350\" height=\"426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Randall-Bach_2021-LR.jpg 700w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Randall-Bach_2021-LR-247x300.jpg 247w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Randall-Bach_2021-LR-600x729.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Randall A.
