Homes: Panic: The Untold Story of the 2008 Financial Crisis by HBO Vice

About

This is one of several resources to explain the historical and economical 2008 housing crisis in America, and we are not posting it for political purposes (as some politicians disparage one another in the video, especially at the end).

Primarily, the video contains interviews from key people involvement from government and banks to news reporters that prove helpful in remembering specific facts during that period of time. Pictures and videos are captured throughout the video as a montage reminder of the recent past, and an example of why when we don’t live by truth and love and by greed and gain, then even our natural state of existence and economy cannot be sustainable — in America or throughout the world. HBO Vice’s video helpfully provides and portrays within an hour and a half the difficult realties of life, especially when we live Godlessly and how “the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil (1 Timothy 6:10).”

After watching the video, then imagine what it would look like if people and economical systems were built by a Godly heart inspired by truth and love.

Homes: Buying and Selling Real Estate Advice

Dave Ramsey provides principles for buying and selling real estate, mainly houses, in this video resource of Dave Ramsey's Real Estate Principles. The helpful advice directs one to avoid countless pitfalls in real estate, as it can be easy to buy or sell before considering wisdom. More so, we want to have wisdom aligned to following Christ. Either we have self-centered wisdom or God-centered and aimed wisdom. If it's the latter, then we see money and possessions (i.e. a house) in light of stewardship on his behalf, learning to live lovingly, hospitable, and generous.
