We live in one of the most expensive areas of the United States. People here believe is a way of life and totally normal to live in debt or at least have a home mortgage loan. Most families have double income--that's husband and wife. We had been there and done that. And have repented for not trusting God and for not following His principles concerning money. We had always been very frugal and never had any debt other than a mortgage. Once our first baby came I've stayed home and have not regret it.
Where we live people like things. You know, they like nice cars, subscriptions, nice big houses, a bout, an RV.... Is it like that where you live?
Proverbs 6 talks about debt as a very serious thing. That's how we began to see it. We had at that time two houses on mortgage. My husband's business ran dry and are now 9 months with no income. We sold our house and moved to our other one in the same area. We are now selling this one too and believing God to live debt free.
