The decade that spans ages 20 to 30 sees adults evolve from complete financial dependence to, humanly speaking, complete financial independence. During their twenties, most people adopt formative financial perspectives and habits in their stewardship journey. Resolve brings focus and clarity to the five foundational stewardship principles that readers (of any age) should understand and apply to build a solid financial framework. Agreeing with the principles is easy. Developing the resolve and conviction to implement them is much harder. Will Ertel draws from his 25-year plus personal financial planning experience and his experiences with his three twentysomething children to exhort the reader to both understand and apply these principles.

Resolve . . . would make a good gift for a recent college graduate or a young married couple.

In Resolve , Will Ertel has provided young people with an eminently practical guide to the management of finances that is grounded in biblical principles of stewardship and peppered with appreciable wit. Will's style is straightforward and accessible, making sound approaches to the handling of personal finances easily understandable to the lay reader. This is a book I want my own children and all the students I serve to read.
Dr. J. Derek Halvorson - President, Covenant College, Lookout Mountain, GA
While this book would benefit people of all ages, I expect that it will become my go-to book for pre-marriage counseling and helping young adults to mature in their understanding of financial wisdom.
Dr. James Newheiser, Jr. - Director of Christian Counseling, Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte, NC and author of Money, Debt, and Finances
This book is everything I want my children and students to know and do when it comes to their personal finances... This should be required reading for every Christian young person from age 18 to 30.
Kurt Cornfield - Financial Planner Professor at Liberty University, Lynchburg, VA
Will writes with brevity, clarity and conviction on matters that twentysomethings need to be thinking about, especially with regard to how to view money matters through a biblical worldview, and how to implement specific strategies that resolve to honor God with our finances. Anyone will benefit from the godly principles in this book, but especially those in their twenties.
Sarah Ivill - Author, Mother, Bible teacher, Retreat and Conference Speaker
Will’s financial expertise and pastoral heart were united all throughout the work. He gives biblical, understandable and applicable advice on wise resource stewardship... Will’s exhortations don’t judge or demean but gently instruct on when and how to save, spend and invest. I would highly recommend this book for parents to review and to share with their adult children.

Stewardship is something of inestimable value entrusted by the King for kingdom purposes. Resolve is the embodiment of this kind of sound stewardship. Will Ertel's financial wisdom entrusted to his readers is a valuable tool.

Resolve is well-written, accessible (even for the non-financially astute—like me!), and full of helpful illustrations. I plan to give a copy to my children and recommend it to the young adults in my church.
