The dudes contemplate how Sacred Space and Common Space have more to do with the Common Good than most folks normally consider. Hot takes abound as to why modern buildings look like they do, what would be helpful to the common good, and how beauty should not be privatized but shared.

Blending a family takes grace—and so does blending your finances.When couples merge families, they're also merging priorities, habits, and sometimes, financial baggage. Ron Deal joins us today to show us that with honesty and a shared vision, what begins as a challenge can become a source of strength for blended families navigating both money and marriage.Ron Deal is a bestselling author, licensed marriage & family therapist, podcaster, and popular conference speaker who specializes in marriage enrichment and stepfamily education and is the co-author of The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family. Why Honest Money Conversations MatterThere once was a man who, when his girlfriend thought he was about to propose, surprised her by asking for her credit report instead. It's a funny story—but one that reveals a serious truth. Beneath money conversations are usually heart conversations.For couples forming blended families, this truth runs even deeper. Life has already taught them that marriage isn't guaranteed, whether because of death or a divorce. That experience creates an understandable sense of caution: How deeply do I invest again? Can I trust this new relationship?Money becomes the testing ground for those questions. That's why avoiding financial conversations doesn't protect your relationship—it weakens it. Only about one in four dating or engaged couples forming a blended family ever have a serious talk about finances before they marry. The rest often underestimate what needs to be uncovered.Finances are never just about dollars and cents. They're about values, power, and security. Beneath a discussion about budgets might be an unspoken fear: Will your children be treated equally with mine? Beneath a talk about wills might be a hidden worry: Will you care for my kids if I'm gone?There was once a woman who had been remarried for 25 years—two and a half decades of life together—and she still wondered whether her husband would provide equally for her children after she passed away. The question had never been resolved. It lingered from the past, quietly shaping their relationship.When those unspoken fears remain unaddressed, they create invisible walls. Healthy couples have the courage to name them and work through them together.The Challenge of Inheritance and TrustConsider the story of Sandra and Dave, a couple who married later in life. Sandra, a divorced mother of two adult children, was asked by her new husband, Dave, to change her will and make him her sole beneficiary. To Dave, who had no children of his own, the request seemed simple and loving: We're one now—just leave everything to me, and I'll take care of your family.But Sandra hesitated. Her adult children hadn't had time to form a close bond with Dave. For her, the request stirred deep questions: How do I know that what she's set aside for her children will be honored after she's gone?This is where trust, loyalty, and belonging intersect. Financial peace in a blended family isn't achieved through documents—it's achieved through relational clarity. You can't solve financial questions until you've addressed the relational ones.Moving from Prenuptial to TogethernessSo what's the alternative? In the book, The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family, Ron Deal, Greg Pettis, and David Edwards, introduce what they call a “Togetherness Agreement.”Think of it as a redeemed version of a prenuptial agreement. A traditional prenup is something you do to your spouse—it outlines what they won't receive if the marriage fails. But a Togetherness Agreement is something you do for your spouse. It outlines how you will lovingly and intentionally provide for one another and your families.In a Togetherness Agreement, couples prayerfully decide together:How do they care for children from prior relationshipsHow inherited or premarital assets will be handledHow responsibilities to other households or parents will be honoredAnd how they'll support one another financially in love and unityIt's not about dividing assets—it's about uniting hearts. This process builds emotional safety, which in turn builds trust. When couples feel safe, they can finally exhale, knowing they are truly invested in each other.Taking Inventory—Emotionally and FinanciallyBefore crafting any agreement, couples need to take inventory. That means both emotional and financial reflection.Ask questions like:What financial baggage or debts are we bringing in?What past wounds or fears still shape the way we view money?What are our goals—for our family, our faith, and our future?Blended families are always born out of loss—whether death, divorce, or something else. That history doesn't have to define the new relationship, but it does need to be acknowledged. Honest reflection helps couples avoid repeating old patterns and build a healthier foundation together.Every couple's situation is different, but here are key topics that should be covered in a Togetherness Agreement:Joint and separate accountsDebt and financial obligations from prior marriagesChild or spousal support payments to other householdsRetirement, insurance, and investmentsCollege, cars, and other child-related expensesCovering these topics doesn't weaken love—it strengthens it. It replaces assumptions with clarity and fear with peace.If all of this feels overwhelming, take heart. You don't have to figure it out alone. Seek wise counsel—a trusted financial planner, pastor, or Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) can help you find creative and God-honoring ways to care for your family.And above all, remember this: God's grace is sufficient for your blended family. Submit your plans to Him. Let Him guide the process. As you do, He will grow you—not only in financial wisdom, but in love, unity, and faith.When couples move from mine and yours to ours, they begin to reflect the very heart of God, who makes two one, and who calls us to love generously, even in the way we handle money.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've been struggling with $26,000 in credit card debt that I recently disclosed to my husband. A credit consolidation company says they can negotiate it down, so I'd pay $400 every two weeks and be debt-free in four years. It sounds good, but is this a trustworthy option—or are there drawbacks I should watch out for?I have UTMA accounts for my two sons, but I am considering switching to 529 plans. I'm mainly concerned that with the UTMA, they'll gain full control of the money once they come of age. Would a 529 plan be a wiser choice?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Smart Stepfamily Guide to Financial Planning: Money Management Before and After You Blend a Family by Ron L.

How much tech do you let into your life? Do you even know why you let certain tech into your life? I'm thrilled to welcome back my friend and Microsoft VP, Scott Hanselman. It's been almost four and a half years since our last conversation, and so much has changed for both of us—at home, at work, and everywhere in between. Scott and I dive into the heart of his recent TEDx Talk, where he questions whether technology is truly delivering on its promises of convenience, connection, and community. We discuss the concept of the "third place"—those spaces outside of home and work where real community forms, and how the pandemic and our increasing reliance on technology have shifted those boundaries. Scott gets personal about his own life transitions, raising teenagers in a hyper-connected world, and the realities of tech overload. He shares the emotional story of how his parents once sold their van to buy him a Commodore 64 computer—a singular act that changed the course of his life and continues to shape his perspective on investing in our kids' potential. We also explore the emotional side of money—how we manage stress, organize family finances, and have those sometimes tough conversations with our partners. Scott even shares the allowance system that's kept the peace in his own marriage for 25 years! Whether you're navigating new technology at home, feeling overwhelmed by all life throws at you, or simply longing for a little more harmony, I think you'll find our conversation both insightful and relatable, with some serious nostalgia along the way.

Beth Pinsker CFP®, MarketWatch columnist, and author of My Mother's Money explains how caring for her mom exposed the gap between “knowing” and “doing” estate/care plans. Only ~30% have wills; even fewer have POAs/health proxies, creating real cash-flow and authorization crises when care starts. She describes the emotional and ethical knots (siblings, guilt) and how illiquid assets/annuity rules and bank hurdles complicate paying caregivers. Takeaways: set POAs/health proxies, add phone legacy contacts, name beneficiaries on all accounts/titles to avoid probate, and use fee-only help when needed. Beth frames inheritances as “Bubby money” spending aligned with a loved one's values and urges investing in health and lifestyle now.

Fr. Tom McCarthy is an Augustinian Priest in Chicago who has been friends with Pope Leo XVI for over 40 years. He gives us a great idea of the kind of man Pope Leo is, and what we can expect from the pontificate of our new Holy Father. Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows: - Be Not Afraid with Fr.

Donna Adelson Trial: Clariza Spoltore Testifies on Dental Office Payments and Family Finances The Trial of Donna Adelson took a turn into the world of the Adelson family's dental practice when Clariza Spoltore—a longtime dental assistant who worked for Dr. Harvey Adelson for forty years—took the stand. Her testimony gave jurors an insider's view of the Adelson Institute, the family-run office where both Harvey and Charlie Adelson worked, and where financial dealings may have overlapped with the murder-for-hire plot against Dan Markel. Spoltore testified that throughout her decades of service, she never saw Katherine Magbanua—the woman prosecutors say acted as the go-between in the murder plot—working in the office. Yet, Magbanua appeared to receive payments tied to the practice, raising serious red flags. Spoltore also explained that only Donna and Dr. Harvey Adelson had access to certain records, underscoring the level of control they maintained over finances and administration. On cross-examination, the defense pressed Spoltore on whether she had ever heard Donna speak poorly of Dan Markel. She said no—she had never personally witnessed Donna express hostility toward her former son-in-law. But prosecutors argue the real issue wasn't casual remarks, it was the money trail and the financial records Donna could manage behind closed doors. Why does this matter? Because Spoltore's words help connect the dots between the Adelsons' professional lives and the conspiracy prosecutors allege Donna orchestrated. If Magbanua was being paid without working, those payments could represent hidden compensation for her role in the plot. With her credibility as a loyal employee of four decades, Spoltore's testimony added weight to the prosecution's theory that the family's dental business wasn't just about dentistry—it was also a financial vehicle for covering up a murder-for-hire scheme. #DonnaAdelsonTrial #ClarizaSpoltore #AdelsonInstitute #DonnaAdelson #CharlieAdelson #KatherineMagbanua #DanMarkel #TrueCrime #FloridaTrial #CourtroomDrama

On this insightful episode of the “NASM-CPT Podcast,” host, and NASM Master Instructor, Rick Richey, tackles a nuanced listener question from Ellie about the financial realities of going independent as a personal trainer. Rick dives into the classic advice that many entrepreneurs should expect to reinvest their profits for the first three to five years and puts this into perspective for trainers considering going out on their own versus opening a brick-and-mortar facility. He breaks down what it actually costs to work independently, and why it usually doesn't take years to “pay yourself back”—unlike running a physical gym, which often requires a significant upfront investment and years of profit reinvestment. Rick also sheds light on important yet often confusing tax responsibilities for self-employed trainers, gives practical advice on setting aside money for business expenses and retirement, and shares stories from his own experience growing multiple gyms in New York City. With relatable anecdotes—like his wife asking, “When do we get to keep the money?”—and actionable tips (hint: get a business credit card just for work expenses), Rick makes the numbers approachable. He also details the pros and cons, both financial and lifestyle-wise, of working for yourself versus for someone else. If you're considering taking the leap into independent training or even opening your own facility, this episode is packed with real-world financial advice, hard truths, and encouragement for trainers at every stage of entrepreneurship.
