What is Budgeting?
Budgeting is simply understanding how much money you have coming into your household versus how much money you have going out in a given period of time.

The only difference in a Christian budget and a regular budget are the expenses. A Christian budget should include expenses such as tithes and offerings.

Why is a budget necessary?
Without a budget you are spending blindly. When you spend money blindly this is not good stewardship. God requires you be a good steward over everything He has placed in your care, even your money.

But why is it so difficult to budget?
Because it requires a great deal of self control. But you have two choices; control your flesh or allow your flesh to deplete your financial future.
