The Federal Reserve Bank of New York reported in August 2026 that American households owed $18.77 trillion at the end of June, including $1.26 trillion on credit cards. The Federal Reserve's May 2026 survey found that only 63 percent of adults would cover a sudden $400 expense with cash. Behind those numbers are kitchen tables with stacks of unopened envelopes on them, and a lot of people in church pews who have not told anyone.
Made the Iron Float is a 30-day devotional through the stories of the prophet Elisha. It is written for families facing job loss, debt, and money trouble: the worker whose plant just closed, the couple whose credit cards have been covering the gap for too long, the spouse who did not know how bad it was until last week, and the parents, friends, and churches around them.
Inside
- The Borrowed Axe Head: saying it out loud, writing down what you owe, and the question "Where did it fall?"
- A Small Room Upstairs: receiving help without shame, what a home is for, and the secrets couples keep about money
- Death in the Pot: food pantries, a sports-betting app, a job far below the old one, and going back to school
- Is This the Time to Accept Money?: pride, quick fixes, debt-relief pitches, and running after money that is not yours
