After a year of pressure to cut rates, the Fed seems poised to lower rates by 0.25%-0.50% next week. Peter and Charlie discuss the logic behind this imminent rate cut as well as the likelihood of a recession and the biggest risk for investors. Plus, is rising unemployment from a cycle low a signal or just noise?

Raising teens with financial wisdom (and boundaries) is no small task. Especially when we're trying to help our kids avoid the same disastrous mistakes we made! In this episode, I sit down with Ryan…friend, financial advisor, and father, to talk about some of the struggles (especially financial) that come with raising adult kids. We dive into:My kids college 529 savings account: What they are, how you get them, and how I helped my kids save for theirs.My two “keys” (ie rules) they must fulfill to access these accounts as adults.When and where I've let my kids struggle so that they can grow (and avoid the pitfalls I experienced).Why Marley is in Thailand on her humanitarian trip and how this connects to her financial and college future.What is a Roth IRA and how can we all start saving better for our kids' futures.Some of the hilarious and probably ridiculous (but hopefully effective) ways I'm teaching my kids to value money and real-life experiences.We talk about all things from finances to stuffing suitcases with mac & cheese and shampoo. It's part financial strategy, part parenting therapy… and all heart. Whether you're a single mom, a tired dad, or just trying to raise grounded kids, this one's for you.Watch the full episode on YouTube here or head to https://www.youtube.com/@RealHeidiPowell.Here are the key moments from the episode:0:00 Why Marley Is Headed to Thailand2:46 More About Marley's Humanitarian Trip10:51 How Much the Average Kid Costs to Raise18:31 Who the Heck is Ryan?22:01 The Best Financial Lesson My Dad Taught Me33:01 How I Blew All of My College Money38:41 What is a 529 College Savings Account45:01 Roth IRAs and How to Build Your Kids' to 5 Million Dollars!50:31 The TWO KEYS to My Kids' College Money56:11 Why I'm Letting My Kids Struggle1:10:46 How to Introduce Financial Literacy at Home1:28:11 Preparing Your Kids for Life Without You1:34:01 What to Do When Your College Kid Calls in Crisis1:45:21 Final Thoughts on Growth, Grace & Letting GoConnect with Heidi:

It's hard to save with bad habits, point blank! You don't have to be on the low end of the spectrum to lack financial wisdom. It has nothing to do with how much money you have or don't have but it has everything to do with your mindset and the ability to manage your finances. The worse thing people do to themselves is to live for others to see what they have or what they pretend to have. It's a ridiculous and very stressful way to go through life! Stop worrying about what others have and stop trying to keep up with what others have. Gain financial wisdom and watch how you crawl out of the pit you've dug for yourself! If you want a better life you can't sit around waiting for someone to pull you out, for the lottery to hit, for someone to die, etc., you have to choose better for yourself! Make better choices and decisions! Stop getting into debt and stop living beyond your means!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

Pastor Neal speaks on Godly wisdom about financial wisdom.

“The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice.” — Proverbs 12:15Wise financial decisions don't happen in a vacuum—they often require wise counsel. But how do you know if the person giving you advice shares your convictions and values? Brian Cochran joins us today to explore how biblical wisdom should shape not just our decisions, but the voices we trust.Brian Cochran is a Certified Financial Planner (CFP®), a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA®), and also serves as the Chief Stewardship Officer at John Moore Associates. The “Why” Shapes EverythingAt John Moore Associates, a recently celebrated milestone tells a powerful story—over $50 million in charitable giving facilitated through the families they serve. This achievement isn't about accolades or financial performance. It reflects a deeper belief: money is a gift from God, but it was never meant to be the ultimate goal for an individual. It's a tool designed for Kingdom impact.Certified Kingdom Advisors® take a distinct approach to financial planning. While they certainly aim to help clients grow their wealth, they are equally—if not more—committed to helping them give it away with wisdom and purpose. The core question isn't just, “How can you accumulate more?” but, “How can you steward it more faithfully?”Their mission is to walk alongside families and help them become wise and generous stewards of the resources God has entrusted to them. That vision informs every client meeting, every piece of advice, and every long-term strategy. They don't see themselves merely as business professionals—they see themselves as called to influence families toward biblically grounded financial decisions that reflect God's character and priorities.They refer to this role as being “stewards of stewards.” Their job is to help others manage God's money in a way that aligns with His will—not just to build bigger portfolios, but to foster hearts that reflect His generosity.The Art of Financial PlanningAlthough financial planning encompasses technical elements such as taxes, investments, and estate strategies, it is far more than just numbers. Financial planning is as much an art as it is a science.That's because personal values, priorities, and convictions ultimately shape every financial decision. Two families with identical balance sheets may receive vastly different advice depending on the worldview and values of their advisor. Even the most technically sound recommendations can lead a client astray if they don't align with their faith or purpose.Families excited to step into greater generosity have occasionally faced resistance—not from financial limitations, but from professionals who didn't understand why anyone would want to give so much away. Similarly, some clients have discovered their portfolios include investments in industries that conflict with their convictions, such as pornography, abortion, or addictive products. These disconnects are more common than many realize.When an advisor doesn't understand a client's “why,” they may unintentionally work against it.When Values AlignBy contrast, working with an advisor who shares a client's biblical values can be transformational. Rather than resist generosity, they champion it. They help clients move beyond conventional financial goals and pursue eternal ones—cheering them on as they give, invest, and plan with Kingdom purpose.This values alignment also fosters deeper conversations about contentment and purpose. Advisors who understand the biblical call to stewardship help clients shift from an accumulation mindset to one that asks, “How much is enough?” That change can lead to greater peace, joy, and impact.It also affects how clients invest. With the guidance of a biblically aligned advisor, many discover new confidence and clarity by investing in companies or funds that reflect their values. In many cases, clients feel more engaged and excited knowing that their investments are not only earning a return but also honoring God.Questions to Ask a Potential AdvisorFor those seeking this kind of partnership, here are a few essential questions to ask any prospective advisor:What are your core values, both personally and as a firm?How do those values shape the way you serve your clients?How do you define success in a client relationship?How are you compensated? Are there any potential conflicts of interest?Most importantly: How will your advice support and strengthen my faith?These questions open the door to alignment—and can help avoid unnecessary confusion or compromise down the road.Many Christians are already working with an advisor, but over time begin to sense that their values may not fully align. That tension shouldn't be ignored. It may be time to ask the same questions listed above. If the answers fall short, it might be wise to explore a new advisor who shares a biblical worldview.Though changing advisors can feel daunting, staying with one who doesn't understand or support a client's convictions may come at a greater cost.A Higher Calling in Financial AdviceUltimately, stewardship is at the heart of every financial decision. Money is not just a personal asset—it's a divine responsibility. A truly aligned financial advisor serves not just as a guide for wealth management but also as a partner in helping Christians honor God with all that He has entrusted to them.For those looking to take that next step with confidence, a nationwide directory of Certified Kingdom Advisors is available at FaithFi.com.

Dr. George C. Fraser A renowned networking expert and CEO of FraserNet. Here's a breakdown of the key insights and themes:

Dr. George C. Fraser A renowned networking expert and CEO of FraserNet. Here's a breakdown of the key insights and themes:

When it comes to money, most people are searching for two things: security and peace of mind. That's understandable—life is unpredictable, expenses arise, and markets swing. But what if true peace isn't found in your circumstances at all?Financial wisdom doesn't start with a budget or a savings plan. It begins with trust—specifically, trusting in the Lord. Proverbs 3:5–6 reminds us, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.”If you chase peace through your paycheck or portfolio, you'll always come up short. But when Christ is your foundation, you begin to see money in a new light—not as a source of peace, but as a tool to steward.Five Secrets to Financial Wisdom from God's Word1. Know Who Owns It All. Psalm 24:1 says, “The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.” Everything belongs to God—your income, your retirement, even your ability to earn. That means we're not owners; we're stewards, entrusted with God's resources to manage faithfully.2. Spend With Purpose. Jesus asks in Luke 16:11, “If you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches?” Spending should reflect God's priorities—giving, saving, living within your means, and investing in eternal impact.3. Avoid the Slavery of Debt. Proverbs 22:7 warns, “The borrower is slave to the lender.” Debt can limit your freedom to give and respond to God's calling. Wise stewards build margin and pursue freedom—not because debt is always wrong, but because freedom is better.4. Save With Perspective. Proverbs 21:20 says, “The wise store up choice food and olive oil, but fools gulp theirs down.” Saving isn't about hoarding; it's preparation for what God might have ahead. But remember: your security isn't in your savings—it's in the Savior.5. Give First, and Freely. 2 Corinthians 9:7 tells us, “God loves a cheerful giver.” Generosity reflects God's heart. It breaks the grip of greed and aligns us with His Kingdom. When we give, we declare, “God, I trust You more than I trust this money.”Anchored in ChristFollowing these biblical principles won't guarantee worldly success. Even the most faithful stewards face trials. But when your foundation is Christ, you're anchored. Isaiah 33:6 says, “He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge.”So if you're looking for security or peace, don't start with a spreadsheet—start with surrender. Financial wisdom begins when you recognize that your Provider is also your Redeemer. And in Him, you have more than enough.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My deceased friend's estate is in probate, and he owned an LLC registered in another state. I've been told that if a new manager isn't appointed, the LLC will be considered closed after 90 days. Once my friend's family receives the letters of instruction, how should they go about settling or managing the LLC?I'm struggling financially and can't make this month's mortgage payment. My lender has offered two options: a repayment plan and a forbearance. What's the difference between them, and how will each option affect my credit score?My husband is switching jobs, and his current 401(k) has a balance of less than $500. His new employer doesn't offer a retirement plan. What are our best options for what to do with this small amount?My son is thinking about filing for bankruptcy, but still hopes to buy a house sometime in the future. How will bankruptcy impact his credit, and realistically, how long will it take for him to be able to qualify for a mortgage again?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Sound Mind Investing Handbook: A Step-by-Step Guide to Managing Your Money From a Biblical Perspective by Austin Pryor with Mark BillerWisdom 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) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
