A previous post of mine address's this challenge.
Author Alan Gotthardt has updated his Eternity Portfolio book and titled it ...The Eternity Portfolio Illuminated.
Alan is a nationally recognized investment advisor, who has spent nearly tree decades focused on the intersection of faith and money.
His new book includes quest commentaries by people he has worked with and helped them make the decisions on how to best invest their resources for maximum effectiveness.
