Every day we make decisions about money but not every decision is made with intention When it comes to generosity many of us wrestle with the same questions Where should we give How much should we give And does our giving really make a difference With so many worthy causes competing for our attention generosity can easily become reactive rather than intentional Yet Scripture invites us to see giving as something much greater than another financial habit Intentional generosity is an act of discipleship that connects our resources to God's work in the world Generosity Is Part of God's Purpose [... more]

Turning Good Intentions Into Generosity with Kendra VanderMeulen

Most Christians want to be generous But wanting to give and actually following through are two different things With so many worthy causes competing needs and financial decisions to consider even the best intentions can become overwhelming Without a plan our giving can become reactive rather than purposeful driven more by the requests we receive than by a thoughtful understanding of how God has entrusted us to steward His resources So how can we move from good intentions to meaningful action Kendra VanderMeulen CEO of the National Christian Foundation NCF joined the show today to discuss how developing a thoughtful [... more]

Defined by Christ, Not Wealth

Money can tell you how much you have but it makes a terrible answer to the question Who am I Wealth is a gift to steward but it was never meant to become our identity Yet in a culture that often measures success by income possessions and financial security it's easy to begin defining ourselves by what we have or what we lack Scripture offers a different perspective In fact some of Jesus' most memorable teachings about wealth reveal what happens when possessions become central to a person's identity When Wealth Becomes Your IdentityHave you ever noticed how Scripture describes [... more]

3 Questions To Ask Before Dipping Into Your Emergency Fund

Having an emergency fund is an important part of wise financial stewardship But building one is only half the battle You also need to know when to use it It can be tempting to dip into emergency savings whenever an unexpected expense or even an especially appealing purchase comes along But if we use those funds too freely the money may not be there when a genuine emergency arrives Proverbs offers a helpful reminder Precious treasure and oil are in a wise man's dwelling but a foolish man devours it The principle is simple wisdom prepares rather than consuming everything [... more]

Preparing the Next Steward

Jonathan Edwards once said True legacy consists not of what we leave behind but of what we instill in others That's an important reminder especially when we think about money and inheritance All of us have a natural desire to provide for the people we love Whether it's our children grandchildren or others God has entrusted to our care we want to leave them in a better position than we were That's a good desire Proverbs says A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children But Scripture encourages us to think about inheritance as more than simply transferring [... more]

Should Christians Have a Prenup?

God's Word says that a husband and wife become one flesh But it doesn't say anything directly about prenuptial agreements So does that mean Christians should never have one A prenuptial agreement or prenup is a legal contract a couple enters into before marriage It typically establishes how assets property and other financial matters would be handled if the marriage ended in divorce For some couples that may seem like practical planning But Christians should consider more than whether a prenup makes financial sense We should also ask what it communicates about marriage and whether it supports or undermines the [... more]

What the Early Church Can Teach Us About Generosity with Dr. Darrell Bock

There was not a needy person among them That remarkable statement in Acts describes the early church's generosity The first Christians freely shared what God had entrusted to them so their community's needs were met Their example can sound almost foreign in a culture that prizes independence and personal ownership But according to Dr Darrell Bock Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies at Dallas Theological Seminary DTS the generosity we see in Acts reflects something much deeper than a particular financial system It reveals what happens when people begin to see themselves their possessions and one another differently because [... more]

Caught Red Handed Part 2 (2 Samuel 12)

Share a commentA king hears a simple story about a stolen lamb and explodes in rage sure he's defending justice Then the prophet looks him in the eye and says the line that collapses every excuse you are that man We trace the turning point in Samuel where David exposed after Bathsheba and Uriah finally stops managing the narrative and tells the truth God has been waiting to hear We dig into why Nathan's parable works how guilt quietly eats away at peace and why we're often quickest to judge the very sin we tolerate in ourselves The conversation also [... more]
