Money and Spirit

Surrendering Our Finances to the Work of the Holy Spirit

By Heather M. Day

Break the endless cycle of poor financial decisions and experience freedom from the anxiety, emptiness, and broken relationships of misplaced priorities.

When it comes to solving our financial problems, there’s no shortage of advice: spend less, save more, invest smarter, work harder. But these traditional tactics are not enough to address the spiritual aspects of financial wellness. 

Money and Spirit is not another promise of health and wealth or a guidebook full of strategies to reduce debt and achieve financial security. This is a journey of abiding in Christ’s Spirit, and surrendering one’s burdens, fears, and worries about money to Him. 

See how walking in obedience to God and surrendering full control can yield spiritual fruit in every area of life, including finances. Replace greed and heartache with love and kindness. Trade anxiety and strife for peace and joy. 

Stop relying on the world’s tactics and solutions. Start pursuing the Holy Spirit’s real, lasting transformation – from the inside out.

What Others Are Saying

“Centering each chapter on a different fruit of the Spirit, Heather uses transparency, humor, and biblical insight to present a message of hope for all. Read Money and Spirit, and put your money where your heart is!”
— Ken Blanchard, Bestselling Co-Author of The New One Minute Manager and Simple Truths of Leadership
“I love what Heather addresses in this book! This is a much-needed discussion of the connection between our finances and our souls.”
— Brant Hansen, Radio host and Bestselling Author of Unoffendable and The Men We Need
“Heather Day presents a fresh, biblically based, and engaging invitation to link one’s stewardship with the fruits of the Spirit. The book is filled with practical insights and encouraging counsel noting that ‘surrender’ is not a sign of defeat, but a spiritual pathway to victory. So, grab a cup of coffee and a yellow marker, and enjoy this step-by-step journey to financial fulfillment!”
— Dr. John C. Bowling, President Emeritus, Olivet Nazarene University
“With the genius of a master storyteller, Heather Day draws our attention to the ancient truths of Scripture and the requirement of total surrender in our lives including how we think about, spend, and save money. If you want a better and exciting future, start with her book, Money and Spirit. The abundant life may be even better than you think!”
— Phyllis Hendry Halverson, President Emeritus, Lead Like Jesus
“Money and Spirit is a book centered on Holy Scripture and the Holy Spirit’s inspirations for God-honoring stewardship. It can be used as a self-guided study, a conversation between married couples, or as part of a small-group gathering. This is a timely and important book for our families and churches. I heartily recommend it.”

— Rev. Zachary King, Ph.D., General Secretary, Christian Reformed Church in North Americace
“A life led by the Holy Spirit is not easy. It is hard to surrender all areas of life to Jesus Christ, certainly when it involves our finances—and even more so when you try to do the journey alone. Are you and your family or small group ready to reflect on the practical questions this study provides? Are you willing to be challenged to put everything finance-related in service of the Kingdom of God? If so, real change is possible; this book will show you how.”
— Jos Snoep, President and CEO, Bible League International
“Heather Day shines light on the spiritual factors at the root of financial problems. Most books focus on symptoms like debt, for example, so they don’t really solve anything; they fail to address the heart issues that motivated the poor decisions the person made. And we have all made them. She does this with a great mix of stories, Scripture, stats, and a keen focus on surrender. That last piece, I have learned in my own journey, addresses the heart condition. I commend this book to you to get your heart right.”
— Dr. Gary G. Hoag, President and CEO, Global Trust Partners
“Money and Spirit can be used for personal devotions and small group discipleship while calling for a deeper dependence on the work of the Holy Spirit in our lives. I highly recommend this material to you and for you to share it with others!”
— Rev. Jul Medenblik, President, Calvin Theological Seminary
“Money and Spirit is a special book that goes beyond just giving advice on how to handle money. Unlike other books that only talk about saving and investing, Money and Spirit shows us how to give our money worries to God and follow His path. This book is perfect for anyone who wants to see a real change in how they think about and use money. If you want to feel more love, kindness, peace, and joy when it comes to your finances, Money and Spirit is the book for you.”
— Russell N. James III, J.D., Ph.D., CFP®, Author, Researcher and Director of Graduate Studies in Charitable Planning, Texas Tech University
“Heather Day has provided us with a guidebook for navigating our way through the lies and distortions of a world that yields only bad fruit, and toward an abundant life replete with fruit that will last. Using the fruit of the Spirit from Galatians, Heather unpacks Scripture and applies it to real-life, practical situations regarding our attitudes and decisions around money. Her themes of surrender, freedom, and joy provide a fresh perspective on this place in our lives where battles rage. If you have any questions, fears, or frustrations about the role money plays in your life as a follower of Jesus, read this book.”
— R. Scott Rodin, Author of The Steward Leader and President of Rodin Consulting, Inc.
“Money and Spirit by Heather Day is a transformative guide that illuminates how surrendering our finances to the Holy Spirit can lead to profound spiritual and practical change. Day’s insights invite us to move beyond worldly tactics and embrace a spiritual journey toward true financial freedom and peace. This book is a must-read for both individuals and groups seeking to align their financial practices with their faith.”
— Rev. Scott Vander Ploeg, Senior Pastor of Sunlight Community Church and Founder and President of Multiply222 Network
“The book is well-written, easy to read and full of Scripture with a great format that lends itself easily to discussion in a small group. While the book is geared toward audiences of all ages, the last chapter, ‘What’s Your Story?’ specifically references the impact of godly grandparents. They will find this book quite useful in using their financial journey to influence the younger generation to follow biblical principles. It’s a great book!”
— Larry Fowler, Founder and CEO, Legacy Coalition
