Today, we're taking a look at the unraveling mayhem situation in California, where Governor Gavin Newsom's failure to lead has allowed chaos to run absolutely wild. Violent riots involving illegal immigrants (most of whom are military-aged men) are breaking out across the state. These individuals are not assimilating, they are disrupting, demanding, and waving foreign flags while burning ours on American soil. As California spirals, it's no surprise that federal intervention has become necessary. President Trump has stepped in where state "leadership" would not. This really isn't about politics, it's about preserving order, protecting citizens, and upholding the rule of law. We are a people who serve a God of justice, not disorder. What's happening is not compassionate, it's destabilizing. California deserves better, and America must wake up before this becomes the norm nationwide. God forbid. Let's talk about what's really going on in California and why prayer, truth, and resolve are crucial right now.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoqJuDPZk6H7VWSxgepSo3RWAJCtIGO9wrHmULH1iMgxSzkJ791_--Order CULTure: https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/SLYWFXAB6479S

For this episode, we have one of our favorite guests: Jordan Raynor.On a previous episode, we had a blast talking with him about his last bestselling book, Redeeming Your Time. Be sure to go back and listen to that episode. What was impressive about that book was how, even though very practical, it was so clearly written on a strong biblical foundation.His latest book is The Sacredness of Secular Work: 4 Ways Your Job Matters for Eternity (Even When You're Not Sharing the Gospel) (Waterbrook Press, 2024)Here at Reintegrate, I often discuss overcoming the false dualism between the sacred and the secular. I love how Jordan Raynor plays with those words in the title. We might want to call it “secular work,” but God calls the work of normal everyday workers, not just overseas missionaries or pastors, sacred work.Scroll down to learn more about Jordan Raynor.Subscribe to the podcast on your favorite app:Thanks for listening!Please share this podcast with your friends.

Proverbs 4:26 reminds us, “Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways.”That's a call to intentional living—choosing wisdom over impulse, especially in how we manage our money. We often emphasize that budgeting isn't just about numbers—it's about aligning your resources with God's purposes.Matt Bell, a trusted voice in biblical finance, recently wrote about the contrast between cultural and Christian approaches to budgeting. He notes that culture gives your money a script:“Make $80,000 a year. Then move into this neighborhood, drive that car, wear these clothes, eat in these restaurants, and take these vacations. Then you can give.”In this model, spending comes first and usually leads to debt. If we're lucky, we might save or give with what's left. The result? Financial stress, shrinking savings, and a fading sense of contentment.Budgeting as a Sacred TrustBut what if budgeting isn't just a spending plan—it's a sacred trust?Deuteronomy 8:18 says, “You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth.” Your income is a gift and a responsibility. Imagine God saying:“I'm entrusting you with $80,000 this year. Use it to reflect My love—meet needs, fund ministry, invest in My Kingdom. Save wisely. Enjoy what I've provided.”This echoes 1 Timothy 6:17, which reminds us that God “richly provides us with everything to enjoy.” With a biblical framework, our financial decisions flip the cultural script:Give firstThen save and investThen spend wiselyAnd use debt sparinglyPaul David Tripp puts it this way:“God calls us to stop starting with ourselves and hoping there's money left over for him. Instead, the call is to willingly and joyfully accept that our money's primary purpose is to fund a kingdom of generosity… and then trust that God will provide what we need.”Jesus warned in Matthew 7:26–27 that anyone who builds their life on shifting sand—hearing His words but not doing them—will find their house collapsing in the storm. A budget based on biblical principles isn't just practical—it's foundational. It anchors our financial lives to the truth of God's Word.A Partner for Kingdom StewardshipIf you're ready to build your finances on that foundation, it helps to partner with others who share your values. That's why we're grateful for Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU).More than a bank, CCCU is a financial institution with a Kingdom mission. They offer everything you'd expect—checking, savings, loans, mortgages—but they also invest your deposits in ministries that serve the Gospel worldwide. Every dollar becomes a tool for transformation.If you're seeking a trusted financial partner that aligns with your faith and fuels your impact, learn more at JoinChristianCommunity.com.Budgeting isn't about restriction—it's about worship. It's about saying, “Lord, everything I have is from You and for You.” When we carefully consider our financial paths, we begin to experience the freedom, peace, and joy of Kingdom stewardship.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I will be full retirement age in August. I'm still working, so my Social Security will be a surplus that I want to put toward my home. I still owe $82,000 on it, but I also know it needs many repairs. Does it make more sense to put this extra cash flow toward repairs, paying down the mortgage, or a little bit of both?What's the difference between getting a debt consolidation loan or working with a debt counselor?I just wanted general information about universal index life insurance. It seems too good to be true. I've heard that you put money in, and it always increases, but you never lose money out of there, like in the case with stocks.I have a colleague with $12,000 in student debt. He wants to pay $1,000 down and the rest over time, but I think he should pay it off completely now. What's the best method for him to save money and pay off the debt quickly?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU)Christian Credit CounselorsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

For this episode, we have one of our favorite guests: Jordan Raynor. On a previous episode, we had a blast talking with him about his last bestselling book, Redeeming Your Time. Be sure to go back and listen to that episode. What was impressive about that book was how, even though very practical, it was so clearly written on a strong biblical foundation.His latest book is The Sacredness of Secular Work: 4 Ways Your Job Matters for Eternity (Even When You're Not Sharing the Gospel) (Waterbrook Press, 2024)Here at Reintegrate, I often discuss overcoming the false dualism between the sacred and the secular. I love how Jordan Raynor plays with those words in the title. We might want to call it “secular work,” but God calls the work of normal everyday workers, not just overseas missionaries or pastors, sacred work.

Send us a textWhat happens when faith meets entrepreneurship? For many believers, there's an unnecessary tension between pursuing business success and honoring God. But what if prosperity with purpose is exactly what God intended?Ken and Tabatha Claytor bring a refreshing perspective to the intersection of faith and business, drawing from their experiences as successful entrepreneurs before their 18-year journey in pastoral ministry. Having built multiple businesses from scratch, they share candid insights about how biblical principles transformed their approach to entrepreneurship.The conversation tackles head-on the misconceptions many Christians hold about money and success. Ken challenges the notion that spiritual maturity requires financial struggle, pointing to scripture that reveals God's pleasure in the prosperity of His people. Rather than demonizing wealth, the Claytors emphasize stewardship – recognizing that all resources belong to God and should ultimately advance His purposes.Four powerful biblical principles emerge as the framework for godly success: integrity that refuses to cut corners, honesty that may sometimes cost you the deal, generosity that combats greed, and divine partnerships that yield eternal returns. These aren't just theoretical concepts but battle-tested strategies that have transformed countless businesses.Perhaps most compelling is the idea that believers don't need to compartmentalize their faith and work. By redeeming Monday through Friday and seeing the marketplace as mission field, entrepreneurs can experience supernatural favor and direction. The Claytors share remarkable stories of divine guidance in business decisions that led to unexpected breakthroughs and profitability.Whether you're a seasoned business owner or an aspiring entrepreneur, this conversation will transform how you view the relationship between faith and commerce.
