What if your investments did more than earn returns—what if they helped shape the culture for good?Today, we'll explore how your money can not only grow but also advance God's purposes in the world. Brian Mumbert joins us from Timothy Plan to share how faith-based investing allows believers to engage the culture with an eternal impact.Brian Mumbert is the President of Timothy Plan, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Giving That Flows from FaithAt the heart of Timothy Plan's mission is a conviction that money is not merely a financial tool but a spiritual one. Timothy Partners, Ltd.—the advisor to Timothy Plan—tithes its profits to support ministries aligned with biblical values.Those partnerships reflect a desire to be active on the other side of Timothy Plan's investment screens. In other words, it's not enough to avoid investing in companies that exploit, harm, or oppose biblical principles. True stewardship involves using financial influence to protect life, defend freedom, equip biblical entrepreneurs, and strengthen families.This commitment is not theoretical—it's deeply practical.In Central Florida, Timothy Plan partners with organizations such as Choices Women's Clinic, the area's largest pro-life pregnancy center, as well as House of Hope Orlando and the Orange County Jail Ministry. Nationally, their reach extends through partnerships with organizations like Movieguide and Florida Family Voice.Through the Kairos Prize, Timothy Plan helps fund aspiring Christian filmmakers with seed capital to develop their projects. Another powerful partnership is with the Nehemiah Project, which equips entrepreneurs worldwide to start and grow businesses based on biblical principles.A Legacy of Business as MinistryTimothy Plan's founder, Art Ally, was inspired by the legendary Christian industrialist R.G. LeTourneau, who dedicated 90% of his income to God's work. LeTourneau often said, “I shovel out the money, and God shovels it back—but God's got a bigger shovel.”That philosophy continues to shape Timothy Plan's culture. They see business as ministry, and since we are all stewards of God's money, we want to ensure it has an eternal impact.For many investors, the idea that their portfolio could be shaping the culture might feel new. But as an investor, we really need to understand where our dollars are going. When we invest with a biblical worldview, we're not just seeking a return—we're influencing what gets built, produced, and promoted in our world.This approach aligns with the broader mission of Timothy Plan: to provide investment options that reflect the values of faith-driven investors and to mobilize generosity that brings light into dark places. The impact of this approach is tangible. You can see the joy on their faces and the difference these ministries are making—locally in Central Florida and across the nation.At FaithFi, we share that conviction: when you invest with purpose, your portfolio can do more than generate returns—it can help bring redemption and renewal to our culture.To learn more about biblically responsible investing and how your financial stewardship can make an eternal impact, visit TimothyPlan.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm planning to retire in 2027 and want to move my deferred compensation. How do I go about that? And should I also get life insurance when I retire?My wife and I just bought a home with a 6.188% adjustable-rate mortgage for three years. Should we refinance now into a 30-year fixed, or wait to see if rates come down?I'll start receiving my full Social Security benefits in December. How much can I earn without being taxed on it?Can you explain how your financial approach differs from Dave Ramsey's? And since Social Security had me apply for widow's benefits, will I owe taxes on that income?Should I invest in gold—or a mix of gold and silver—and how would I do that? And what about Bitcoin or other digital currencies? Are they wise investments, and how would I start?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Timothy PlanCharles Schwab | FidelityAn Uncommon Guide to Retirement: Finding God's Purpose for the Next Season of Life by Jeff HaanenWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook 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)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

LionTree's James Lindsay visits the massive studio complex of Merwas in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (the world's largest music studio, according to Guinness) to converse with Danny Townsend, CEO of SURJ Sports Investment. Danny, who began his career playing football (a/k/a soccer) for Australia's Sydney United Team, had a 26 year-long career on the business side of sport prior to his 2023 appointment as CEO of SURJ. The pair hone in on Danny's broad remit, underlining the “dual mandate” of successfully deploying Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund (PIF) in the sports arena, as well as bringing about genuine social change by expanding youth sport participation and maximizing opportunities for female athletes such as Saudi MMA champion, Hattan Alsaif.This podcast is for information purposes only.

RUNDOWN Mitch solves last week's "mafia lookalike" mystery — listeners decide he's a dead ringer for The Sopranos' Michael Imperioli. The guys riff through Goodfellas lore, Seahawks' second straight blowout win, and Von Miller's hilarious regret about choosing Washington over Seattle ("it's like turning down a girl who became a movie star"). Heartfelt condolences to the family of Lenny Wilkens, celebrating the Hall of Famer's legacy as both player and coach — and his decades as the Pacific Northwest's ultimate basketball statesman. Then it's back to football as the guys revel in another stress-free Seahawks blowout, highlighted by two identical sack-fumble touchdowns from Tyrese Knight and DeMarcus Lawrence. Mitch welcomes back Brady Henderson and Jacson Bevens for another Seahawks No-Table after a 44-22 dismantling of the Cardinals. The crew marvels at a team that suddenly looks like a legitimate Super Bowl contender, while debating the sloppy second half and the emerging run-game breakthrough. They dig into injury updates on Ernest Jones, and Jarran Reed, the trade for Rashid Shaheed, and the defense's uncanny "next-man-up" magic under Mike Macdonald. Mitch reconnects with Rick Neuheisel, presented by Taco Time Northwest, to unpack a wild week in college football — starting with Washington's shocking collapse in Madison. Rick calls it a "disaster," offers perspective on Jed Fisch's road woes, and shares how leadership, not logistics, separates winners from whiners. From there, the conversation races across the national landscape: Penn State's heartbreak at Happy Valley, Texas Tech's oil-fueled rise, and which Group of Five team might crash the playoff. Then Neuheisel dives into Lincoln Riley's number-swap trickery — calling it "legal but unethical" — before handing out Taco Time honors. Mitch reconvenes the Seattle Kraken No-Table with RJ Eskanos and Dylan Travers of Emerald City Hockey for the team's first check-in of the season. Despite a solid early record and a near-top Pacific Division standing, the panel wonders how sustainable it really is. RJ notes that the offense remains among the league's weakest, while Dylan credits new head coach Lane Lambert for installing a defense-first system that maximizes effort and structure.

We're so glad you are here! Thanks for checking out Sunday's message!-- SUNDAY'S NOTES --No servant can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money. Luke 16:13 ESVMoney cannot be allowed to compete with God for your heart.The mastery of money starts with having the right attitude about money.Money will make you more of what you already are. - - Dave RamseyGodliness with contentment is great gain. 1 Timothy 6:6 CSBComparison is an ungodly attitude regarding money, positions and possessions.)Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions. Luke 12:15 ESVKeep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you. Hebrews 13:5 ESVIt's not money, but the love of money that's an issue.For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows. 1 Timothy 6:10 CSB He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity Ecclesiastes 5:10 ESVInstruct those who are rich in the present age not to be arrogant or to set their hope on the uncertainty of wealth, but on God, who richly provides us with all things to enjoy. Instruct them to do what is good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and willing to share, storing up treasure for themselves as a good foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of what is truly life. 1 Timothy 6:17-19 CSBDon't trust in riches, but rather in our God who richly blesses. Honor the LORD with your possessions and with the first produce of your entire harvest. Proverbs 3:9 CSBIf you don't tell your money where to go, you'll wonder where it went.If you're only offering God crumbs from your once full pie plate He gave you, that's a problem.Bring your full tithe to the Temple treasury so there will be ample provisions in my Temple. Test me in this and see if I don't open up heaven itself to you and pour out blessings beyond your wildest dreams. Malachi 3:10 MSGRemember this, a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don't give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-7 NLTIf you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven? Luke 16:11 NLTGodly financial stewardship isn't about how much you have, but what you do with what you have. Generously steward according to God's Kingdom Priorities Don't forget to do good and to share with those in need. These are the sacrifices that please God. Hebrews 13:16 NLTGenerosity is stewardship based on obedience and faith, not you financial portfolio. And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others. As the Scriptures say, “They share freely and give generously to the poor. Their good deeds will be remembered forever.” 2 Corinthians 9:8-9 NLTCompassionately - Unless your heart is engaged in your giving you won't give for long. If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion, how can God's love be in that person? 1 John 3:17 NLT True compassion always leads to generosity. - - Give out of compassion not compulsion! For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you. 2 Corinthians 9:10 NLTTrue generosity comes from the heart of God and lives in the hearts of those who love and follow Him.-------------------------------------------------Download the 828 Church app!To view our latest e-newsletter, the Midweek Momentum, and subscribe to our weekly updates, go here! https://linktr.ee/828church

Tim & Tim discuss whether to pay off your mortgage early or invest, breaking down math, mindset, and goals for 2025's financial landscape. This episode is brought to you by First Horizon. Episode Summary In this episode of the YFP podcast, co-hosts Tim Ulbrich, PharmD, and Tim Baker, CFP®, RICP®, RLP® revisit the frequently asked question: 'Should I pay off my mortgage early or invest the difference?' They discuss how the changing financial landscape, including rising interest rates, market volatility, and inflation, impacts this decision in 2025. They explore the math, emotional factors, and personal financial goals to provide a balanced approach. What you'll learn in this episode: How to evaluate whether paying off your mortgage early or investing the difference makes more sense in today's higher-rate environment. Why the math (interest rates, investment returns, tax impact) and the emotion (stress, freedom, flexibility) both matter when making this decision. How shifts in interest rates, inflation, and cash flow pressures since 2018 change the calculus for pharmacists in 2025. The role of discipline and behavior—why "investing the difference" only works if you actually do it. How a financial planner helps balance data and emotion to build a plan that aligns with your goals, values, and risk tolerance.

David McKnight focuses on three of the biggest names in personal finance – Dave Ramsey, Suze Orman, and Ken Fisher – and why you should be careful with following their advice. David emphasizes that anyone trying to wring the most efficiency out of their retirement savings should focus on advice that's backed by math… not soundbites. While David Ramsey is the right person for people who are making less than they are spending, the same can't be said for his retirement planning advice. For instance, he claims that 100% of cash value life insurance sucks 100% of the time. For David, whenever someone gives you advice that claims it should be applied 100% of the time, you should run the other way! Remember: there's no financial strategy that works for everyone all the time. According to an Ernst & Young study, by contributing 30% of your retirement savings to an IUL, you'll dramatically increase your income in retirement over a stock market investing alone. Citing E&Y, David explains an approach that shields you from the sequence of returns risk and that has a 95% chance of your money lasting as long as you do. David points out that most Americans don't have thousands of dollars lying around in savings accounts just to pay the taxes on a Roth conversion… David sees Dave Ramsey as someone who gives basic advice for people with basic problems and whose advice could potentially be catastrophic if you want to shield your retirement from higher taxes. When it comes to Suze Orman, David looks at her recent advice of keeping 3-5 years worth of living expenses in an emergency fund in retirement. While Orman is trying to safeguard against sequence of returns risk, she seems to be forgetting about inflation eating away at your purchasing power. As David shares his dislike of Orman's advice, he touches upon a resource that can double your sustainable withdrawal rate from 4 to as high as 8%. Ken Fisher, on the other hand, has become the face of the "anti-annuity crusade". The problem with Fisher's approach? He's primarily referring to variable annuities, completely disregarding fixed indexed annuities (which are a totally different animal). David discusses how replacing bonds with fixed annuities "can increase your returns, lower your risks, and give you a better outcome over time." Beware of financial gurus saying "I hate annuities", "100% of life insurance sucks 100% of the time", or "never pay taxes from your IRA"! In his latest book The Guru Gap, David takes a deep dive into the flawed logic of financial gurus, and gives the full story with the math, the context, and the strategies they conveniently leave out in their content and speeches.

David McKnight discusses one of the most destructive pieces of retirement advice he has ever heard: that you should never do a Roth conversion in retirement or within five years of retiring. Dave Ramsey believes you should forego doing a Roth conversion if you're within five years of retirement or are already retired – because of the so-called Five-Year Rule. The problem with this approach, according to David, is that Ramsey is misinterpreting what that rule actually means, in addition to confusing multiple rules and applying them to the wrong people. Ramsey's advice, continues David, encourages retirees to make choices that could cost them a fortune and taxes over time. The bigger issue, however, is the fact that Ramsey is focusing on the wrong thing – what he should really focus on is where tax rates are headed in the future. The current historically low tax rates won't last, as the U.S. national debt is on track to hit $63 trillion by 2035. If that were to happen, the U.S. Congress won't have the luxury of keeping tax rates low anymore. According to former Comptroller General David Walker, tax rates will likely need to double just to keep the Government solvent. A recent Penn Wharton study found that if the U.S. doesn't get its house in order by 2040, no combination of raising taxes or reducing spending will arrest the financial collapse of the nation. David warns that if you're still contributing to or sitting on a big tax-deferred nest egg like a 401(k) or IRA, you're setting yourself up to pay massive taxes in the future. Remember: 2035 is your Roth conversion deadline. David goes through his suggested strategies to avoid paying higher tax rates and potential penalties in the future. Something good to keep in mind is that if you're in the 0% tax bracket and tax rates double, two times zero is still zero… David sees Dave Ramsey as the go-to expert for get-out-of-debt advice, not retirement planning strategy.

Do you have a budget for your clothes? Most style advice assumes the problem is overspending: closets overflowing with unworn items, tags still on. But when I polled my LinkedIn network, 86% said they don't buy enough clothes and wear things too long. In networking conversations, easily half the women I talk with budget exactly zero dollars for their own wardrobes. Here's what generational theory reveals: Each generation absorbed specific messages about when it's "appropriate" to invest in appearance.

Hi Friend! I want to talk about automating everything you possibly can. I am so squirrley and always have many projects going on, so in order to stay sane at home and in my online business, I automate almost everything. In our home, we have systems and automations that help things run smoothly. One of the biggest saving graces is having our money and bills automated. There are very few things that I have to worry about due dates with. From our insurance payments to our electric bill, it is all automated and because we live very frugally and with attention, we never have to worry about insufficient funds. I also have my transfers to our savings bucket and expense accounts all automated. We have an envelope system like Dave Ramsey has, but it is all electronic with automations in each bucket and that works really well. I'm pretty sure our bank thought I was crazy when I set it up like I did, but it has been amazing! There aren't too many surprise expenses when you have a simple automated system to save and spend money! Next, Laundry routines which have gotten much easier over the years as our teenagers do their own. I do bedding on Mondays and 1 -2 other loads during the week depending on what we have. My routine is to start the coffee, toss a load in the wash, grab my coffee and do my Bible study, so it works well. Dishes we do as we go-for the most part other than when we get a little behind in crazy times like harvest season. I would not be able to run my business in less than 1-2 hours a day if I didn't have automations. I have taken several different experts advice and made it into a super simple system~even on instagram! If you remember when I was so exhausted with instagram last year and could only do a few weeks and get frustrated, it was because I hadn't figured out to simplify and streamline it. Once I had all my direct messages optimized and the scheduling done, there isn't a whole lot else to do but watch the sales role in and that has been really fun! It seems so simple and I don't have to worry about going on there all the time, in fact, I rarely scroll or comment on others posts~some people will tell you that you need to do that, but my account is growing at a super fast rate with multiple daily sales, so I disagree that you need to engage unless you have time to or enjoy that. Content is automated, sales are automated along with automated emails and this keeps your business running even when you are not available. It has been the most simplest and efficient way I have found to run a business. I actually don't even need my website or all the extras I was paying for before I simplified it all. I am super excited that I am working on a project for you if you want to learn how to do this too. If you want to be a SAHM or retire early, this system can work for you while you are working full time in small amounts of time and I can't wait to help you do the same with less stress and overwhelm. If this is something you are interested in, please send me an email at monica@claimingsimplicity.com as I am gathering a group of beta testers and I would love for you to be a part of it!!!!! See you next week! God Bless! Monica
