The Best Finance Book I’ve Ever Read
This is an extremely rare occasion that I am writing a review for a book. This book was that good. Simple Money, Rich Life is a book that I will read on repeat. The principles inside are 100% biblically sound. I love how practical and relatable this book was. The way it was written is so beautiful and user friendly. It might be silly but the way it was laid out and formatted was so helpful to guide me along and made me exited to read this book. Most books are just a sea of words that I get lost in but this book was quite the opposite. I loved how short the chapters were encouraging me to want to keep reading. Also, the Kick Start action steps at the end of each section were super helpful. I highly recommend this book. I cannot say enough good things. My outlooking on earning, giving, saving and enjoying money is forever changed. My perspective on trusting God has been strengthened. This is one of those books that I’ll be able to look back on in my life and mark when my financial journey truly changed!Thank you so much Bob and Linda for sharing your life and stories with us. My life will never be the same!!

Relatable financial wisdom
This book is amazing. It's relatable. That's what I think sets it apart. It's not a get rich quick scheme or a book that dives into investing in terminology that the average person can't understand. It's not unreasonable methods of never using a credit card or only using cash.It's a story about someone who has been where most people have been. Broke and in debt and gives you real life, easy, hands on step by step principles to change that. It encourages you and motivates you to get debt free, save and give.My favorite part so far is how he explained that we are a conduit for God. Our finances should flow through us according to His desires. It's like God has "Venmo" us money. It's still God's money but we get to hold onto it. We may shovel out money as he asks but the book says God's shovel is always bigger.It has motivated me to make some changes in my giving. Although that seems counterintuitive when becoming debt free God always provides and blessed the giver and Bob shows proof of that in his own life in this book.I don't think this even accurately describes how good this book is, but I'm all in. I got sick of being where I was with my finances and not having the knowledge on what to do (besides tithe). I was tired of getting in and out of debt so I prayed and did something about it. I followed on insta, paid for their class, implemented changes, got their podcast and now have the book and it didn't disappoint.I am so encouraged and have sent multiple pages of this book to friends. Especially the part of finding your calling and becoming an expert. I'm also an entrepreneur so it really encouraged me to be an expert.I'm rambling but there is so much good in this book. Bob and Linda are anointed and called and couldn't be more relatable.

This book does not disappoint!!
“God wants to do the super-natural in your financial life, but what steps are you taking to allow the supernatural to flow unhindered?” (from Simple Money, Rich Life).I discovered Bob’s blog a few years ago while doing an online search about the Bible and money (and later enrolled in his outstanding 10X Investing Course).As a faith-led single mompreneur, I’ve had plenty of challenges in my growing relationship to money, read lots of books, consumed many courses, written pages of notes listening to highly financially successful mentors… all while still being desperately unable to make forward progress in my financial life.Not until I read Bob and Linda’s beautiful and powerful book did everything finally click!! So many key breakthroughs… especially realizing I’ve been listening to all the wrong voices, instead of the most important voice of all (the one you’ll discover too when you read SMRL).After reading Simple Money, Rich Life, I couldn’t feel more grateful and wholeheartedly agree with other reviewers here when they describe Bob and Linda Lotich’s book as “life-changing”, “amazing”, “practical”, “relatable”, “encouraging”, “a gem”, “best book for your financial life”.If you’re a faith-led, faith-driven person struggling with anxiety, overwhelm or frustration in your financial life despite “trying all.the.things.”, this book is an answer to your prayers. You will not be disappointed. Bob and Linda Lotich have written a game-changing book designed to help you and I "get in the position that will allow God to do what God does best.”

The best!
One of the best books I've read on personal finances AND the journey of faith it takes to be a good steward. Bob and his wife Linda share well-earned wisdom with the reader, providing a road map to financial peace, with sound guidance, leaving the reader with hope for their financial future.

Transformative Biblical mindset on money management
I’ve shared this book and the Seed Time Money podcasts to so many especially with the students in a welding job training class. The practical steps have transformed mindsets of the marginalized and in financial crises. By the time you go through the book, you find yourself looking at all the resources God has given through a spiritual lens. Bob and Linda Lotich are so gracious and generous in the way they freely share the wisdom God has provided in their financial journey. The book is easy to read but so rich in content!

Wise counsel and accessible information
Simple Money, Rich Life is very informative, encouraging and inspiring. I really really appreciate how the focus is on using it all for God’s purposes, and trusting in Him as our ultimate Provider. In very practical ways, Bob shares how to get your priorities right, with humourous real-life examples and simple tools to help you with making decisions with money and investments. It prompted us to have discussions about where we can focus more of our giving. We’ve always tithed and given to many organizations, but I really like the idea of making a chart and actively praying for God’s direction, as well as having seed money set aside for that purpose.Thankful for this wise counsel and genuine (as well as humourous) approach to important money issues.A great read for people of all ages who are wanting to honour God with all they have. Would be really beneficial for younger adults to set them up well for a life of making godly financial choices.Highly recommended.

A great book on finances
I was a little skeptical to be honest when I found out that the book contained many references to the Bible. However I have read many finance books and this one helped me more than the others as it is very much about values. I have since done the online course, completely changed my view on charity and have applied the budget system. Thanks for this insight!

Easy to read, easy to implement
I have not quite finished reading this book, but so far everything I have read makes total sense. It's an easy to read book, there is no judgement, and everything that is suggested is so easy to implement. I am so grateful that I bought this one.
