This sermon, part two of the “Dollars & Sense” series, teaches that God cares deeply about how we handle money and that the basics—budgeting, getting out of debt, living on less than you make, saving, and giving—still work when practiced faithfully. Drawing from Scripture and practical principles (including Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace approach), it emphasizes that money is a tool, not a master, and that wise planning leads to peace and freedom. The message challenges listeners to trust God with their finances, commit to biblical habits, and experience joy and generosity as a result.

Today's economy doesn't just create wealth. It creates the ability to show off wealth, and that visibility inflates expectations so quickly that even high-achieving parents often feel behind, overwhelmed, or financially stretched. Today, I break down why expectations rise faster than real progress, how that impacts family decisions, and why the small behaviors you repeat consistently are far more important than dramatic financial moves. If you've ever felt like your life looks "successful" on paper but still feels stretched or pressured in real time, you'll want to hear this episode.

Freedom Through Passive Profits | Start an Etsy Business, Sell Digital Products, Make Passive Income
So… I did a thing. I decided to homeschool my son this year. And before you picture me color-coding lesson plans and building a chicken coop, hear me out - this decision came straight from my heart. Every child thrives differently, and over the summer, we realized that our youngest really needed something more individualized… more one-on-one. As a former teacher, I saw the signs - he was starting to slip through the cracks. And when he asked to be homeschooled, I just couldn't say no. But as I started researching curriculums and joining homeschool communities, something really stood out - so many moms want to homeschool but feel like they can't afford to. They want to be home, but they still need to help provide. And that's when it hit me - what I've built with digital products on Etsy is exactly what so many of these families are searching for. A way to teach their kids, be present, and still contribute financially - without sacrificing their sanity. So in today's episode, I'm opening up about our decision to homeschool, how I've built a business that gives me this freedom, and how you can do it too. Because yes - homeschooling and income can absolutely coexist… peacefully and purposefully. xo, Jacqueline | LEARN FROM ME | Etsy Profits PRO - Course + Coaching Program www.jacqueline-butler.com/etsyprofitspro Canva Crash Course www.jacqueline-butler.com/canva Midjourney Beginner's Guide & 130+ Prompts www.jacqueline-butler.com/midjourney | OTHER STEPS | Join My Email List & Get a FREEBIE! www.jacqueline-butler.com/freeguide FREE 5-Step Starter Guide: www.jacqueline-butler.com/starterguide FREE Facebook Community: www.jacqueline-butler.com/freegroup Website: www.jacqueline-butler.com Get In Touch: jb@jacqueline-butler.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/jacquelinebutler.co Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jacquelinebutler.co TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@jacquelinebutler.co | MY FAVE RESEARCH TOOLS | eRank https://erank.com?fpr=jackie31 Insight Factory https://insightfactory.app/ Alura https://www.alura.io/?via=jacqueline

Amanda went on The Catholic Woman Podcast, hosted by Marie Hanson, for a wide-ranging conversation about money, faith, and what it actually takes to find financial peace today.In this episode, Amanda shares the real story behind a major money fight early in her marriage, how she and Jonathan paid off debt and stayed out of it, and why debt freedom is only the beginning—not the finish line. They talk candidly about budgeting as a skill Catholics need to relearn, the moral and practical challenges of credit cards, and why debt keeps families tied to the past instead of free to respond to God's call.We also mention some of the realities young families are facing right now: an increasingly unaffordable housing market, the student loan crisis and the pressure many couples feel when they're trying to do “everything right” and still feel stuck while sharing stories of God's very specific providence along the way.This episode is especially for anyone feeling overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward financially while staying faithful.Resources mentioned:• Catholic Budget Guide: https://walletwin.com/catholicbudgetguide/• Learn more about WalletWin and Catholic Money Academy: https://walletwin.comIf this conversation encouraged you, share it with a friend—and don't forget to leave a 5-star review to help more Catholics find it.
Preaching Service This final lesson in the Financial Peace course addresses common financial questions with a focus on biblical stewardship, practical wisdom, and long-term financial health. It emphasizes the importance of emergency funds in safe, accessible accounts like money market or high-yield savings accounts, highlighting the value of liquidity and modest interest without sacrificing security. The sermon advocates for 15-year fixed-rate mortgages over 30-year terms, demonstrating through math that the long-term cost of interest is significantly higher with longer loans, and encourages investing the saved monthly payment after payoff to build wealth. It warns against refinancing unless the total cost is lower, cautions against leasing cars due to their high long-term expense and risk, and challenges the cultural obsession with monthly payments by promoting total cost analysis. The teaching concludes with a strong critique of credit scores, arguing they reward debt rather than financial freedom, and urges believers to prioritize biblical principles—debt freedom, prudent planning, and stewardship—over metrics designed to promote borrowing.

This sermon emphasizes the importance of proactive estate planning as an act of stewardship, wisdom, and love for family and future generations. Centered on biblical principles of order and responsibility, it guides listeners through essential tools such as healthcare proxies, wills, and trusts, highlighting how they safeguard loved ones, prevent family conflict, and ensure assets are distributed according to one's wishes. The speaker underscores the financial and emotional burdens of probate, especially in New York State, and explains how strategic use of beneficiaries, joint ownership, and trusts—particularly irrevocable trusts—can bypass probate, minimize tax liabilities through stepped-up cost basis, and protect assets from creditors or Medicaid. With a pastoral tone, the message urges believers to act while in good health, communicate openly with heirs, and prioritize long-term planning over short-term convenience, all rooted in faithful stewardship of God's blessings.

This sermon presents a biblically grounded, practical framework for understanding insurance not merely as a financial product but as an expression of stewardship and trust in God's provision. It emphasizes that insurance is a wise tool for managing risk and protecting assets, family, and long-term financial peace, especially in a world where unexpected events can quickly deplete savings. The speaker outlines eight essential types of insurance—health, auto, renter's, homeowner's, life, disability, umbrella, and long-term care—explaining their purpose, recommended coverage levels, and how they align with responsible financial planning, particularly in light of one's life stage, net worth, and dependence on income. While cautioning against underinsuring due to cost concerns, the sermon advocates for term life insurance over cash-value policies, promotes adequate liability protection, and highlights the importance of planning for future needs like long-term care, all while stressing that true security ultimately rests in faith in God's provision, not in human systems alone.

While cautioning against underinsuring due to cost concerns, the sermon advocates for term life insurance over cash-value policies, promotes adequate liability protection, and highlights the importance of planning for future needs like long-term care, all while stressing that true security ultimately rests in faith in God's provision, not in human systems alone.
Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Retirement is no longer just about stepping away from work. It's an opportunity to redefine purpose, rediscover joy, and design a life aligned with your values. In this episode of Inspired Money, three thought leaders unpack what it means to retire mindfully, covering everything from emotional health, financial habits, to building a portfolio of passions and community ties. Whether you're planning your next chapter, already retired, or simply rethinking your approach to money and fulfillment, this conversation will help you set a new course. Meet the Expert Panelists Vicki Robin is a renowned social innovator, author, and speaker best known for co-authoring the groundbreaking personal finance classic, Your Money or Your Life, which has inspired readers worldwide to rethink their relationship with money and pursue financial independence. An advocate for sustainability and localism, she also authored Blessing the Hands That Feed Us and hosts the podcast series What Could Possibly Go Right?, where she explores emerging solutions for societal challenges. https://vickirobin.com Jordan Grumet, MD, is a hospice doctor, author, and host of the Earn & Invest podcast, blending his expertise in medicine and finance to explore financial independence, wealth building, and living meaningfully. With a deep understanding of both personal finance and end-of-life care, he empowers others to make intentional, regret-free financial decisions. https://www.earnandinvest.com Ellen Langer is a pioneering Harvard psychologist known as the "mother of mindfulness," whose 40+ years of research revolutionized understanding of how mindful awareness (without meditation) shapes health, aging, decision-making, and human potential. She is the author of 13 books, including the bestseller Mindfulness and The Mindful Body, and her award-winning work has earned her Guggenheim, Staats, and Liberty Science Genius honors. https://www.ellenlanger.me Key Highlights Challenging Retirement Stereotypes Jordan Grumet reframes retirement from a period of slowing down to a time of "unlimited choice." He notes, "Instead of working for other people, you get to work for yourself—making decisions about what fills you up, excites you, and connects you to others." The episode explores how retirees can pivot from old assumptions and design lives abundant in purpose and connection. Mindfulness as a Tool for Fulfillment Ellen Langer's research shows that simply noticing new things—being actively present—invigorates both mind and body. "Mindfulness is the very simple process of active noticing," she says, and this practice can turn routine experiences into sources of joy, health, and new passions later in life. Community & Belonging Over Consumption Vicki Robin emphasizes the importance of context and connection: "The activity of creating community is so often approached from a consumer perspective—'I want community'—not the hard work of micro actions that let people know you care." The episode shows that real fulfillment comes from cultivating relationships and community, not just individual pursuits. Emotional Health & Financial Freedom The panelists agree: regrets at life's end aren't about money, they're about missed connections and opportunities for self-fulfillment. Jordan Grumet shares, "Our regrets are that we didn't become a better version of ourselves, and money's only loosely tied to that." The episode offers practical strategies to spend purposefully and let go of financial scarcity to live more fully. Call-to-Action Here's one thing to do this week: Create your own "Portfolio of Passions." Take five minutes and write down three activities that give you energy, three that bring you connection, and three that spark curiosity. Put that list somewhere you'll see it. Then commit to trying just one of those things in the next seven days. Find the Inspired Money channel on YouTube or listen to Inspired Money in your favorite podcast player.

This sermon presents a biblically grounded, practical case for prioritizing retirement savings as a form of faithful stewardship, emphasizing that planning for the future is not a lack of trust in God's provision but a responsible use of the resources He provides through labor and wisdom. Drawing from key Scripture passages—Matthew 25's parables of the wise and foolish virgins and the talents, 1 Timothy 5:8 on caring for one's household, and Ecclesiastes 7:11–12 on wisdom and wealth—the preacher illustrates that financial foresight, investing, and disciplined saving are consistent with biblical principles of prudence, responsibility, and care for others. The central teaching is that consistently investing 15% of one's income in tax-advantaged accounts, particularly through diversified growth stock mutual funds, can yield a sustainable, lifelong income through compound growth, with historical evidence showing the stock market's long-term reliability despite short-term volatility. The message is especially urgent for younger listeners, who can leverage time to build substantial wealth with modest contributions, while older individuals are encouraged not to despair, as meaningful progress is still possible with disciplined action. Ultimately, the sermon calls believers to view retirement planning not as a worldly pursuit but as a spiritual discipline of faithfulness, preparation, and love for family and future generations.

The sermon presents a biblically grounded, step-by-step approach to personal financial stewardship, emphasizing that true peace comes from obedience to Scripture and disciplined financial habits. It outlines six concurrent steps—after eliminating debt and building an emergency fund—centered on investing 15% of income for retirement, saving for children's college (if desired), and paying off a mortgage early, all rooted in the principle of financial independence rather than retirement as an age. The speaker stresses that retirement is defined by a financial threshold, not a calendar year, and uses compound interest and long-term investing to illustrate how early, consistent action leads to sustainable security. While cautioning against greed and get-rich-quick schemes, the sermon affirms that wealth should be built not for personal indulgence but for generous giving, supporting missions, and helping future generations, all within a framework of faithful stewardship and contentment, with the ultimate goal of honoring God with all that He provides.

The sermon presents a biblically grounded, step-by-step framework for achieving financial freedom through disciplined stewardship, emphasizing obedience to God's principles over worldly financial habits. Central to the message is the necessity of breaking free from debt by first establishing a $1,000 emergency fund, creating a detailed budget that prioritizes essentials and long-term goals, and applying the debt snowball method to systematically eliminate liabilities. Key theological themes include the biblical call to flee from debt, the importance of self-control over impulses, and the principle of planning ahead—illustrated through Jesus' teaching in Luke 14 about counting the cost before building a tower. The speaker underscores that financial peace comes not from wealth but from aligning one's finances with God's wisdom, including saving for future needs, avoiding credit card misuse, and trusting in divine provision rather than material security. Ultimately, the journey leads to a life of freedom, peace, and generosity, where financial decisions are rooted in faith, discipline, and a commitment to honoring God with all resources.

This sermon presents a biblically grounded framework for achieving financial peace through faithful stewardship, emphasizing that true financial health begins with spiritual alignment and obedience to Scripture. It argues that financial struggles stem not from external circumstances but from poor stewardship, lack of contentment, and disobedience to God's principles—particularly the dangers of debt, the necessity of budgeting, and the call to prioritize heavenly treasures over earthly accumulation. The message underscores that God owns all things, and believers are entrusted with managing resources wisely by working diligently, spending less than they earn, saving for emergencies, and giving generously, all while rejecting the bondage of debt and the idolatry of money. Practical steps are introduced, including calculating net worth, creating a budget, and building an emergency fund, all rooted in the conviction that financial discipline is an act of faith and a reflection of one's relationship with Christ.

Hey Mama, Where are you at in your financial journey? Are you sticking to your budget or are you struggling, stressed and overwhelmed? The world we live in today thrives on independence and because of it we can be so easily swayed to try and achieve anything in our own strength. But God wants us to be dependent on Him to allow Him to work through the struggle with us just as we did when we were little kids. It's so much easier to do something when you have help vs trying to do it on your own. That is why today we are going to be walking through how partnering with God gives you confidence and peace in your budgeting and the steps to take so that you can start doing it today. So go get your drink, open your heart to God and let's dive in. Much Love Molly P.S. I want to invite you to grab some Budget Coaching.
