Title:  God and Money:  How We Discovered True Riches at Harvard Business School 

John Cortines was earning six figures as a petroleum engineer for a major oil company in Louisiana. He so delighted in the prospect of shoring up wealth for his young family that his online banking password was “retire_at_40!” John was a Saver. 

Gregory Baumer was a 25-year-old analyst at a Boston private equity firm pulling down $250,000 a year. Why not drop $1,000 a month for dinners out with his wife? Greg was a Spender. 

Two young Harvard MBAs on the fast track to wealth and success, tell their story of God’s transforming power and how it changed their lives and their relationship to money. They offer an honest look at what the Bible says about radical generosity.
