"Edifying" your credit isn't just about the score; it's about building a solid foundation for your financial freedom.

Continuing our coverage of the Dark Universe, we veer off the road into a helicopter and tackle two burly men who eat Steroid Pancakes for breakfast. Yes, this has nothing to do with the Dark Universe, nor does it have anything to do with the FFCU. Instead, enjoy Henry and John day tripping off to Hawaii to talk about their daddy issues. Will James and Jonny Hale bring the promised buddy cop comedy drama, or does the whole island sort of just fall short? Find out right now, on Zero Credit(s).

James 3 reveals the incredible power of our words and the responsibility that comes with speaking. Just as a small bit controls a massive horse and a tiny rudder steers enormous ships, our tongue—though small—directs the entire course of our lives. Words can destroy relationships like a spark ignites a forest fire, yet they can also be a fountain of life that builds others up. While humans can tame wild animals, we cannot tame our tongues without God's help. Our speech should be characterized by four life-giving qualities: Loving, Intentional, Factual, and Edifying. The choice is ours—will our words bring life or destruction?

It’s time once again for a regular ole episode, one covering all the happenings of the annual Big Game (don’t sue us). Henry and John hit the gridiron to tackle the highs and lows of the evening including an overview of the game, a deep dive into the halftime show, and of course a step by step data point dissection of those time-honored and most beloved commercials. Will Big Game 60 go down in the books as one to remember, or is it an uh-oh stinky? Find out right here on Zero Credit(s).

Continuing our coverage of the Dark Universe, we dive head first into the Mummy (2017) with Tom Cruise, Jake Johnson, and others. Will we unwrap the mysteries of why this movie failed to launch the Dark Universe proper, or fall victim of the Mummy’s curse and have to kiss her? Is Tom Cruise or Russell Crowe the better actor? All of these questions and more considered, right here on Zero Credit(s).

Drew from the Marvel’s A.C.E. is here to deliver some expert martial arts analysis for Jackie Chan’s latest film The Shadow’s Edge, a remake of 2007’s Eye in the Sky. Does this Chinese film never released to the West have the chops, or do its punches bounce off like mosquito bites? Find out right here on Zero Credit(s).

Send us a textIn this episode, I draw upon Edith Eva Eger's book The Choice. She recently turned 98 and is a Holocaust survivor. She likens our struggles to prisons we build within our minds that hold us back from being all that we could be. I then refer to Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's funeral and refer to his talk "The Best is Yet to Come." It's a new year, and we need to allow ourselves to make important new beginnings. __________________________Do you have questions or comments?Please contact me: rtosguthorpe@gmail.comWant more info about my books and talks?Go to my website: https://www.russelltosguthorpe.com/Want to order a book?

You've done the work. You've stayed open. Gotten out there—online and in person. So why are you still alone and questioning your worth? Here's the shift that changes everything: Does love still feel out of reach? Wondering why others seem to find love with ease and you don't? If you're feeling ashamed, confused, or even guilty about being single, you're not alone. Far too many people carry a quiet burden of believing they've somehow failed at Love. But that perspective is not only wrong—it will never assist you in your journey. Love isn't a reward for effort. Being single isn't a personal flaw. Edifying self-worth and eliminating self-judgment.
