In this episode of Yahweh's Money, we're keeping it real, keeping it holy—and keeping it hilarious. I sit down with comedian and radio personality Larry Lancaster for a soul-nourishing conversation about the power of laughter, faith, and financial resilience.This isn't your average “let's talk money” episode.We dive deep into how humor becomes a spiritual tool in hard times, why many of our financial issues are rooted in ego—not lack—and how a cheerful heart truly is good medicine (Proverbs 17:22). Larry doesn't hold back as he shares his journey from growing up in the roughest part of Baltimore to building a thriving comedy career grounded in purpose and faith.We talk about the emotional weight of trying to make ends meet, the shame that often comes with financial struggle, and why God might be giggling right along with us—because sometimes, laughter is all we have left. And sometimes, that's exactly what gets us through.This episode is part testimony, part stand-up set, and all heart.Here's what you'll walk away with:A new appreciation for laughter as a holy act of survival.Real talk on how ego often keeps us in debt, not lack of money.Stories from Larry's upbringing that shaped his outlook on money, manhood, and mental health.How growing up with a parent with mental illness taught him grace, grit, and gratitude.Why financial literacy without spiritual alignment will leave you feeling empty.The role of joy, jokes, and Jesus in managing economic pressure.What Diddy, church money, and designer jeans can teach us about humility.And yes—there's also a bit about a sleepy McDonald's employee, $19 jeans, and a thousand bottles of baby oil that'll have you laughing out loud and shaking your head.Featured Scripture:Proverbs 17:22 — “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.”Action Step:Find one financial frustration this week and laugh about it. Whether it's a ridiculous fee, a busted budget, or a week of creative cooking with what's left in your pantry—laugh, reflect, and give it to God. Then ask Him to renew your joy in the middle of your financial journey.Because while God gave us wisdom, budgeting tools, and community support—He also gave us laughter.Let this episode remind you that even when the money's funny, the joy is still real.Send us a text

In the season 4 opening episode of Yahweh's Money, I had an open and heartfelt conversation with my husband, Nathaniel Cook Jr., about the intersection of love, legacy, faith, and finances in Black marriages. Drawing on our 26-year journey together, we reflected on how biblical principles, patient partnership, and intentional money management have shaped our relationship and approach to generational wealth.Here are a few key takeaways from our discussion:Compromise is CrucialMarriage and money both thrive on honest conversations and joint decision-making. Neither partner will always be right, and building wealth requires alignment—even if visions aren't identical, they must point in the same direction.Faith Fuels Financial ResilienceLeaning on faith helps navigate disagreements and encourages patience, trust, and hope—both in God and each other. Strong faith doesn't erase worry, but it anchors couples through uncertain times.Generational Understanding Builds WealthWealth isn't just about assets; it's also about the mindset passed on. Demonstrating responsible financial behaviors and discussing money openly with our daughter has helped her set a new “floor” for her own future, raising the bar for the next generation.If you're looking to strengthen your relationship or build a financial legacy, consider scheduling a "money date" with your partner—pray together and align on your vision for the future.Let's keep breaking cycles and building together!Episode Resources:Ecclesiastes 4:12Send us a text

Remember that for this mix there is no monthly playlist, it comes from ‘Best of Bamf Radio', you order it by date and listen to the songs I've added in 2024.That's all from me.

Today, it's the end of another quarter. But even bigger, it's the very last day of 2024. And it means only 359 days until we welcome Santa Claus again. WOW, what an interesting year it has been. Putting aside wars, international conflicts, crazy sanctions, and one of the busiest years I can recall with elections around the globe. In business and economics, we started the year with the World Economic Forum speaking about the Future of Growth Framework amidst a sluggish global economy. And we watched a noticeable growing trend—the increasing reliance on AI to make major decisions, particularly being utilized by governments, which may surprise many listeners. (worrying or not, only time will tell), but for business leaders, you will need to prepare yourself for a changing of the business rules; that much I'm very confident about. The question on every leader's mind is no doubt what will 2025 bring. Well, the wait is over, and tomorrow we find out.
