Financial Collapse to $2 Million in One Year
“We blessed ourselves out the church. We got money. We started traveling. We started living. We forgot God in a sense.”
Dameion & Christine Harris are owners and operators of Liberty roofing, a highly successful construction company in northern Atlanta. However, their journey first began with their financial services business after they married in 2004 and had kids shortly after. After quickly making a huge profit, the Harris began to enjoy a more lavish lifestyle of vacations and frills. According to Dameion, there was a point where they were making 50k a month. That would not last. Just 6 months after building and moving into their dream home, the Harris’ lost everything. Clients vanished. Their income disappeared overnight. Dameion’s self-confidence took a major hit. When they reached out to Christine’s mother for help, it was just enough to stay in their home. Dameion & Christine began studying the principles of tithing, and Dameion had a realization about how they approached their money. Dameion says, “we blessed ourselves out the church. We got money. We started traveling. We started living. We forgot God in a sense, not even intentionally --- and I repented for that.”
Despite financial difficulties, they began to put these tithing principles into practice. A short time later, a friend gave them a word from god. Christine says the word was “hey God is gonna give you a business where you're gonna be covering families. We actually had a little bit of a background with flipping houses, and then, we went completely into the covering portion, which is roofing people's homes.”
Within their first year of starting liberty roofing, the company was a success. At the year’s end, they made over $2 million dollars! Dameion now encourages his staff to also consider tithing in their own lives. Today, the Harris roofing business continues to thrive, while they continue their lifestyle of tithing and giving regularly. Dameion and Christine’s testimony of God’s faithfulness remains the steadfast drive of their business and family. Christine says, “I want to tell people, tithing absolutely matters. It can make or break your situation, and I don't wanna go back to where we were before. That's not a place I never want to be again. So I will continue to tithe for the rest of my life.”
