At Ease: Discussing Money and Values in Small Groups

Praise for the Book

“John and Sylvia Ronsvalle, with U. Milo Kaufmann, have ventured where angels fear to go—talking about money in Christian community. This is a ground-breaking, paradigm-shifting book. The authors cover the general foundations of what makes for good groups while uncovering the hidden secrets of why we won't talk to each other about money. This book is practical, accessible, flexible, and personal while built upon well thought-out biblical, theological, and psychological grounds. The authors are sensitive to healthy discipleship practices as well as intentional spiritual formation. If you want a committee, team, task force, or small group to wrestle with monetary values in a wholistic and healing way, this book is a wonderful tool for a risky and redemptive adventure.” —Gareth Weldon Icenogle, Author of Biblical Foundations for Small Group Leadership

“John and Sylvia Ronsvalle and U. Milo Kaufmann have done all of us a great favor. In At Ease: Discussing Money and Values in Small Groups, they have shown us one very effective way for church members to bridge the gap between faith and money. The authors succeed in their primary objective—to put us at ease even as we talk about some unsettling things.” —Daniel Conway, Director of Stewardship and Development, Archdiocese of Chicago
