Story Behind the Book

Ive been dismayed by the financial abuse of people in powercorporate CEOs, trusted religious leaders, and even heads of householdswhose mismanagement and greed have inflicted hardship on many a victim. But I wrote Poor Mrs. Rigsby to show what can happen when victims justify using dishonest means in an effort to regain control of their financial ture. Its my hope that this story will challenge believers to take an honest look at where they draw the line between their own striving for financial purityand trusting God to provide what they need.
