Ashley Whillans has spent years studying how time, money, and workplace culture shape our well-being. As a behavioral scientist at Harvard Business School, she's found that time poverty is more than a personal stressor—it's a leadership challenge, an organizational blind spot, and one of the biggest barriers to well-being at work.In this episode, Dart and Ashley talk about why traditional perks miss the point, why more control over your time can matter more than a raise, and what it looks like to build companies where people actually have time to think, rest, and grow. They explore urgency culture, the myth of work-life balance, and the tradeoffs we make without realizing it.Ashley Whillans is a professor at Harvard Business School and the author of Time Smart. Her research has been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and Harvard Business Review. In this episode, Dart and Ashley discuss:- How time poverty affects performance and well-being- Why leaders should care about how their teams spend time- The limits of traditional perks - How to shift from burnout to sustainability- Why work-life balance is a myth—and what matters more- What “time affluence” really means- And other topics…Ashley Whillans is the Volpert Family Associate Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.

This week, Meg and Alex recap week 6 at We Got This. With over 160 coming out to the garden to work this week, it was a busy one. Food was produced and given away for the first time this season and the kids had plenty of opportunities to learn life lessons and practice working.
John Deaton bootstrapped his way from food stamps and poverty in the streets of Detroit, a place of ruins with drug deals and murders. He was able to pull himself out and eventually became a federal prosecutor and ran against Elizabeth Warren in the 2024 Senate race.--------------------------Check out all of our vendors at: https://patriotswithgrit.com/patriot-partners/ SPONSORS FOR THIS VIDEO❤️ Cardio Miracle - Boost your energy, help support your immune system, and improve your mental clarity-plus use promo code GRIT and save 10% on your order https://cardiomiracle.myshopify.com/discount/GRIT➡️ RNC Store- Immunity is your first line of defense and laetrile/B17 from Richardson Nutritional Center can provide you with natural health supplements to improve your wellness. - Use promo code GRIT and save 10% on your order https://rncstore.com/GRIT

Intro:This morning, we're diving into Proverbs to explore God's heart for the poor. This builds on last week's sermon on justice. We'll hear from community members dedicated to this work. Who are the poor? It's complex, encompassing food insecurity, homelessness, and material lack, as Michael Simmon from the Rescue Mission shared. While our nation has safety nets, biblical understanding goes deeper.Scripture References: Proverbs 5:1-14, Proverbs 29:7, Proverbs 31:20, Proverbs 22:9, Proverbs 28:27, Proverbs 17:5, Proverbs 19:17, Matthew 25, Luke 4, 1 John 3:17-18, Galatians 2:9-10, Acts 3:1-9Key Points:Poverty's Complex Causes: Proverbs acknowledges poverty results from both bad choices and injustice. Avoid instant judgment; it's a mix of personal decisions, family, and systemic issues.The Righteous Care for the Poor:"The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern" (Proverbs 29:7).The Proverbs 31 wife, epitomizing wisdom, "opens her arms to the poor" (Proverbs 31:20). Caring for the poor should be central to followers of Jesus.Rewards for Caring for the Poor:"The generous will themselves be blessed" (Proverbs 22:9)."Those who give to the poor will lack nothing, but those who close their eyes to them receive many curses" (Proverbs 28:27). There's eternal reward and divine warning.God Identifies with the Poor:"Whoever mocks the poor shows contempt for their Maker" (Proverbs 17:5)."Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord" (Proverbs 19:17).Matthew 25 highlights: "Whatever you did for one of the least of these... you did for me." God takes our actions personally.A Holistic Gospel:Our gospel must be good news to the poor. Jesus' mission began with proclaiming good news to the poor (Luke 4:18).Avoid two errors:Serving the poor while neglecting Jesus/discipleship: Without Jesus, healing from deep pain is incomplete (Heidi Heredia).Preaching the gospel but neglecting the poor: "How can the love of God be in that person?" (1 John 3:17). Our gospel needs "feet"—actions. The early church was known for this care.Helping Without Hurting:Avoid increasing shame/savior complex: Don't disempower. Use asset-based community development (Steve Corbett) – resource their gifts to restore dignity (e.g., Creekside Community Church selling gifts).Avoid "parachuting": Partner with indigenous ministries. Building relationships and local ownership are key (Dave Schlich). Jesus is already at work; we join Him.Avoid giving relief to those who need development: Understand relief (immediate aid), rehabilitation (getting out of the pit), development (learning to walk again). Our goal is full restoration.Panhandling: Michael Simmon advises against cash. Offer connection, food/hygiene items. "Being seen" is vital.The goal: restore full humanness, glorifying God in right relationship with Him, self, others, and creation.Conclusion:Many are helping without hurting (Rescue Mission, Gleanings, Dream Center). We're called to embody this holistic gospel.Call to Action:Remember Acts 3:1-9: Peter and John gave the lame man healing in Jesus' name, not just money. We empower people to "walk, jump, and praise God." Ask God for your part and pray for those leading this work. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI.

Pastor Brent Belford preaches on James 1:9-11.
1 A wise son listens to his father's instruction, but a scoffer doesn't listen to rebuke. 2 By the fruit of his lips, a man enjoys good things, but the unfaithful crave violence. 3 He who guards his mouth guards his soul. One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin. 4 The soul of the sluggard desires, and has nothing, but the desire of the diligent shall be fully satisfied. 5 A righteous man hates lies, but a wicked man brings shame and disgrace. 6 Righteousness guards the way of integrity, but wickedness overthrows the sinner. 7 There are some who pretend to be rich, yet have nothing. There are some who pretend to be poor, yet have great wealth. 8 The ransom of a man's life is his riches, but the poor hear no threats. 9 The light of the righteous shines brightly, but the lamp of the wicked is snuffed out. 10 Pride only breeds quarrels, but wisdom is with people who take advice. 11 Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, but he who gathers by hand makes it grow. 12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life. 13 Whoever despises instruction will pay for it, but he who respects a command will be rewarded. 14 The teaching of the wise is a spring of life, to turn from the snares of death. 15 Good understanding wins favor, but the way of the unfaithful is hard. 16 Every prudent man acts from knowledge, but a fool exposes folly. 17 A wicked messenger falls into trouble, but a trustworthy envoy gains healing. 18 Poverty and shame come to him who refuses discipline, but he who heeds correction shall be honored. 19 Longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but fools detest turning from evil. 20 One who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm. 21 Misfortune pursues sinners, but prosperity rewards the righteous. 22 A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children, but the wealth of the sinner is stored for the righteous. 23 An abundance of food is in poor people's fields, but injustice sweeps it away. 24 One who spares the rod hates his son, but one who loves him is careful to discipline him. 25 The righteous one eats to the satisfying of his soul, but the belly of the wicked goes hungry.

In this final episode of our “Prosperity Gospel, Poverty Gospel, and The Gospel” series, we're diving into the forgotten commands of scripture that every Christian should know when it comes to money. We're not just talking about how to make more or give more — we're talking about how to think biblically about money, handle it with eternity in mind, and why most believers are stuck in financial cycles that don't reflect the heart of God. We break down 1 Timothy 6:17–19 and show how Paul gives us a framework for wealth that isn't about prosperity or poverty — it's about purpose. In this episode, we cover: Why God wants you to enjoy what He's given — but not worship it The #1 thing Paul told the rich (and it's not what you think) How to track your “Net Given” (instead of your net worth) The difference between seed and bread in 2 Corinthians 9 Why your money is meant to flow through you, not just to you How to write a personal “Wealth Purpose Statement” with your family Why generosity now is connected to eternal treasures later

Her şeyin token'laşması gerçekten devrimci bir değişim getirecek mi, yoksa mevcut ekonomik düzenin bir aracı haline mi gelecek? "The Poverty of Tokens - Crypto Sovereignty" adlı bu derinlemesine inceleme, kripto ekosistemindeki güncel yönelimin tehlikelerine dikkat çekiyor. Bitcoin'in ilk günlerinden beri var olan token kavramının, Ethereum ve Neo gibi platformlarla ne denli kolaylaştığına tanık oluyoruz. Ancak, bu durumun, kriptonun devrimci doğasını kaybetme riski taşıdığı belirtiliyor.Yazar, mevcut token'laşma sürecinin, blok zincirlerin egemen gücünü yok ederek, anonimliği kaldırarak ve değiştirilemezliği ortadan kaldırarak bir "teknoloji bankacılığının" parçalanmış bir biçimine dönüştüğünü öne sürüyor. Bu yozlaşmanın, ekonomik eşitsizlikleri pekiştirdiğini ve bizi başladığımızdan daha kötü bir konuma sürükleyebileceğini vurguluyor.Kripto varlıkların sadece ekonomik yönüne odaklanmak yerine, politik, felsefi ve hatta dini boyutlarını anlamanın teknolojinin "Anahtarını" korumak için hayati olduğu ifade ediliyor. Bu anahtar olmadan, kriptografinin radikal doğasının yitirileceği ve adeta bir Kafka romanındaki "tepenin eteğindeki köyde yaşanılan hayat" gibi bir duruma düşüleceği uyarısı yapılıyor.Peki, kriptonun devrimci potansiyelini nasıl koruyabiliriz? Bu, cypherpunk köklerine ve kripto-anarşist prensiplerine sadık kalmakla mümkün. Anonimlik yoluyla takas edilebilirliği, merkezi olmayan katılım yoluyla konsensüsü ve değiştirilemez blok zincirleri mümkün kılan matematiksel-yasal garantileri ısrarla sürdürmemiz gerekiyor.Eğer bu teknolojinin gerçek potansiyelini anlamazsak, "token yoksulluğu" felsefesinin sığlığını kanıtlamaya devam edeceğiz. İnternet'in egemen ve özgür bir bölge olarak kalması için kripto sistemlerinin merkezinde yatan politik ve felsefi doğayı kabul etmeliyiz.Bu bölümde, kripto dünyasının sadece finansal bir araç olmanın ötesindeki derinliklerine iniyor, token'laşmanın getirdiği tehlikeleri ve kaybolan devrimci ruhu inceliyoruz.Kaynak

Join us and be inspired in this replay episode from Women Acquiring Assets featuring Tammy Thompson's story and the critical importance of understanding poverty psychology. Her life experiences, including periods of homelessness and housing insecurity, have shaped her insights into the intricate relationship between financial literacy, mental health, and community empowerment. As a dedicated consultant and advocate, Tammy focuses on helping individuals, particularly women and marginalized communities, navigate the complexities of poverty and achieve financial independence through accessible education and support. Central to Tammy's approach is the belief that financial education is a powerful tool for breaking the cycle of poverty. She emphasizes the need for relatable and practical guidance on topics such as homeownership, investment, and budgeting, which can empower individuals to take control of their financial futures. However, she also recognizes that addressing the psychological barriers associated with poverty is equally important. By creating safe spaces for individuals to share their stories and confront limiting beliefs, Tammy fosters an environment of healing and empowerment that encourages personal growth and resilience. By collaborating with local nonprofits, advocating for policy changes, and investing in educational programs, we can collectively uplift those facing economic challenges. Join Tammy in her mission to create a more equitable society by spreading awareness, sharing resources, and empowering individuals to break free from the constraints of poverty. Together, we can foster a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. For the accessible version of the podcast, go to our Ziotag gallery.We're happy you're here!

Significant Women with Carol McLeod | Carol Mcleod Ministries
In this episode of Significant Women, I have the great joy of welcoming Mary Marantz, a gifted author, speaker, and host of The Mary Marantz Show. Mary's story is both tender and powerful—a testimony of healing, courage, and transformation. Together, we talk about what it means to break free from generational pain, let go of perfectionism, and begin the long, faithful journey of becoming who God created us to be.Mary shares rich insight from her new book Underestimated, a message for every woman who has questioned her voice, her strength, or her ability to make a meaningful impact. Our conversation explores the process of healing from the inside out, recognizing fear for the liar it is, and learning to trust yourself as a vessel for the work God has entrusted to you.This episode will meet you in your hidden places and help you start again—with grace, with faith, and with a deeper sense of purpose.In this episode, we discuss:Healing from decades of limiting beliefs and deep-rooted fearThe myth that “more” will lead to our downfallGenerational patterns and where the chain breaksThe link between perfectionism and fearHow self-sabotage keeps us in cycles of playing smallWhy consistency is more powerful than excellence aloneReparenting yourself as an adult and learning to feel safeUnderstanding the Parable of the Talents as a call to trustHow to stop delaying obedience while waiting for “permission”Embracing your God-given gifts and using them with courageScripture Themes:Matthew 25:14–30 — The Parable of the TalentsThe calling to be faithful with what you've been givenThe importance of small, daily obedience in spiritual growthTrusting that if God gave it to you, He intends for you to use itMary's Books Mentioned:Dirt — A memoir about returning home and making peace with your pastSlow Growth Equals Strong Roots — A guide for those tired of hustle, who long to grow at a soul-deep levelUnderestimated — A book for every woman who feels overlooked, underqualified, or unsure of her place in God's planQuotes to Remember:“We are doing the heavy lifting of breaking generational chains. So it's okay if it takes us a little longer.”“You were never asked to be perfect. You were asked to be faithful.”“When we hide our gifts, we forfeit the good work that was prepared in advance for us.”“Fear is not creative. It's repetitive. The lies don't change. But neither does the truth.”Carol's Challenge to Listeners:Start small. Ask yourself: What one thing can I do today to become more of the woman I long to be? Maybe it's a simple decision. Maybe it's a single act of obedience. But begin there. Because your story matters, and the small things are never small when done with God.Mary's Final Prayer:Mary closes the episode with a beautiful and vulnerable prayer over every woman listening. She prays that you would grow weary of fear, stop giving weight to old lies, and begin trusting the God who planted gifts in you before the foundation of the world. She reminds us that showing up matters more than being perfect—and that hiding your voice serves no one.Where to Find Mary Marantz:Website: www.marymarantz.comInstagram: @marymarantzPodcast: The Mary Marantz ShowBooks: Available wherever books are soldListen and Subscribe:If this episode encouraged you, consider subscribing and leaving a review.

It's the full moon tonight, specifically the Buck Moon, so we figured it was the perfect evening to do some gardening and drop a new episode of Highly Haunted! Peyton gets into some salacious celebrity ghost stories involving, you guessed it, GHOST SEX. Are these celebs trippin', or were they really getting it on with a ghoul? Liz then takes us to a graveyard in Barbados where caskets keep switching places in their tomb, defying all explanation. Are the spirits playing tricks, or is the staff getting blitzed? Listener discretion and a high tolerance is advised. Hit the bong and smoke-a-along! It's time to get high… Highly Haunted. Stay spooky, stoners!
The Twin Evil Of Poverty And Mammon - Biblical Prosperity (Series 4 )Welcome to the Shan Kikon Audio Podcast & Sermon.Here you will find sermons to instruct, establish, equip, and release you to fulfil your full potential in Christ.
"Poverty is a choice, my brother." These powerful words from Enyonam, widely known as The Ghanaian Farmer, cut through long-held misconceptions about agriculture in Ghana. While the average farmer in the country is 55 years old—approaching Ghana's life expectancy—farming remains one of our greatest untapped opportunities for wealth creation and poverty eradication.The silence around agricultural prosperity is deafening. "The OGs who have been in the space have made wealth but they refuse to talk about it," Enyonam reveals, explaining why young people continue to view farming through an outdated lens. This powerful conversation dismantles these stereotypes, revealing how coconut farming on just 20 acres could generate over 1.3 million cedis annually, with farmers harvesting approximately 100 fruits per tree twice yearly.But success requires more than just planting seeds. Market research before production is non-negotiable. "If you don't categorize your buyers, then you would sell to the market woman who comes to tell you this is how much I'm paying or I won't buy," Enyonam cautions. She details practical routes to market, from government institutions like Ghana Commodity Exchange to international buyers seeking export-quality produce, each requiring different approaches and certifications.Financial support for agricultural entrepreneurs is increasingly accessible through organizations like Mastercard Foundation, offering loans at 5% interest with generous repayment terms. Young graduates shouldn't wait for government employment but should package their agricultural expertise as consulting services—especially valuable in a country where one extension officer serves nearly 1,000 farmers. Modern farming has evolved beyond rainfall dependency and wasteful practices; today's successful farmers use irrigation systems and transform every byproduct into value, from cassava peels for animal feed to fish-water for vegetable growing.Whether you're considering agriculture as an investment or career path, this episode reveals the practical steps to success while avoiding common scams and pitfalls. Join our community of forward-thinking entrepreneurs at our upcoming event on August 29th at the British Council.

In this episode, John White welcomes Andrea Carter to unpack how personal experience can radically reshape our understanding of poverty. Andrea reflects on her early years as a teacher, when she held common misconceptions about families in poverty, and describes how her own journey through situational poverty challenged and transformed those beliefs. Andrea shares how repeated judgment can create “forced helplessness” and offers practical advice: build real relationships, include those with lived experience in leadership, and move from “us versus them” to a true sense of shared community.

Dr. Dan Henley of Church Developers Network and Pastor Michael & Stephanie Wilkerson of Engage Church Memphis provide details into the Common Ground Conference set for July 29th. This one-day event is designed to deepen your understanding of the lived realities of poverty. Overall poverty in the city of Memphis nearly doubles the national average. Cost of Poverty Experience (COPE) is a simulation that help participants connect with the realities of poverty from real life families in our city.
Grief and Poverty goes together because they both make one feel poor and not having anything. and it bothers you. There reallybare issues in life that involve poverty . We believers are in the world but not of it. We are to rejoice when we experience trials. We have a commission to pray because its our duties to do so. We are rich because we are kingdom heirs and we have everything in Jesus Christ. When we overcome we are to testify and give our testimonies how we overcome. We don't escape the issues that are in our lives because we know who's in charge. Let's talk.
In this Morning Manna episode, we examine Solomon's piercing question: “How long wilt thou sleep, O sluggard?” (Proverbs 6:9). Verses 9–11 warn us that spiritual laziness opens the door to unexpected loss—poverty doesn't announce itself; it sneaks in like a traveler and attacks like an armed man. We'll reflect on the hidden dangers of procrastination, the deception of ease, and why a restful heart still requires a watchful spirit.Join the leading community for Conservative Christians! https://www.FaithandValues.comYou can partner with us by visiting https://www.FaithandValues.com/donate, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!https://www.AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!

Johan du Preez is a seasoned South African entrepreneur and investor, and the Founder of SAAD Investment Holdings and the Tree of Life Foundation. Johan began his career path as a pharmacist in his early twenties and spent many years managing pharmacies that needed major turnaround. He then became the CEO of a large healthcare organization before the Spirit led him to start his investment company with a focus on impacting the Kingdom of God. Johan brings a unique perspective as a faith-driven leader who channels private equity investment returns into longterm, sustainable generosity through an investment firm contained within a charitable foundation. From leading major corporate turnarounds to pioneering innovative giving platforms in South Africa, Johan's life and work exemplify the intersection of strategic investing and radical generosity. Major topics include: Johan's early life and faith background How becoming a pharmacist laid the foundations for what he does today Integrating faith into business and money management Strategically operating from the spirit realm in money and business Realizing that money can help build God's kingdom The story of SAAD and the Tree of Life Foundation What it looks like to let God own your business Transitioning from health care insurance to financial services The difference between working with God and letting God work through you Taking risks in Kingdom business Depending on God when you don't know what you're doing Investments that make an impact through business Weighing “return first” and “impact first” investing Using charitable capital through a donor advised fund The beauty of collective giving Thinking through investing versus giving How to leverage all that you have to be a part of what God's doing QUOTES TO REMEMBER “There's only one way to be strategic, that is to operate in the spiritual realm. Otherwise, you are just reactive and tactical.” “The eternal perspective is ultimately the one that saves you.” “For God to work through you, you have to be dead.” “When you involve God in your business and make it His business and say, ‘I'm just here to work for You,' then you actually complicate it to a large extent because you had better make sure that you know what the Shareholder wants.” “God is more interested in the character of the individuals that are involved in the company than about the results at the end of the day.” “We are called to take risks for the Kingdom.” “The best decisions I've ever made were based on what I did not know.” “Collaboration is everyone exchanging their personal dreams for one larger dream.” LINKS FROM THE SHOW SAAD Investment Holdings Tree of Life Foundation National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills) Trustbridge Global (see our interview with Executive VP, Paul Bolte here) The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

This week, Meg and Alex talk about the heat, leadership, winning at work, and week 5 at We Got This.
Intro:Good morning! Matt Flummer teaches today on a challenging, crucial topic: justice. In our Proverbs series, we'll explore biblical justice, contrasting it with secular views to find profound clarity.Scripture References: Proverbs 1:1-3, 17:23, 29:4, James 2:1-4, Proverbs 18:5, 24:23-24, Isaiah 5:20, Proverbs 11:1, 20:10, 16:8, 16:11, 28:16, Leviticus 19:35-36, Proverbs 6:10-11, 10:4, 13:18, 13:23, 14:21, 14:31, 19:17, 21:26, 31:8-9, Deuteronomy 10:18, Isaiah 1:17, Jeremiah 21:11-12, Proverbs 21:3, Micah 6:8, Romans 3:10-26Key Points:Defining Justice: Proverbs links justice (Mishpat) and righteousness (Sadech) as inseparable. Secular views often split, focusing on either fairness/equity or freedom/individualism.Injustice in Proverbs:Bribery (Prov 17:23): Using influence for personal gain, treating people as means.Partiality to Wicked (Prov 18:5): Refusing to confront evil within one's "team" for perceived unity.Justice in Proverbs:Business Dealings (Prov 11:1): Fair measures, honest gain, opposing dishonest practices.Treatment of the Poor: Poverty is complex—caused by laziness/foolishness (Prov 6:10-11) AND injustice/oppression (Prov 13:23). Proverbs commands radical generosity regardless of cause (Prov 14:21), honoring God. We must also defend the oppressed (Prov 31:8-9), as God aligns with the vulnerable. Jesus himself identified with the poor.Three Takeaways:"I and my things are not my own." Our wealth is God's and partly for the poor (gleaning laws). We are stewards; be radically generous.Corporate & Individual Responsibility. Bible shows both: families/nations accountable for others' sins, but also individual accountability before God. Hold both truths.Justice Linked to Worship. Justice is giving each their due, including God. "To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice" (Prov 21:3).The Way of Justice: Through the Cross:"No one is righteous" (Rom 3:10). We can't be just on our own.God's righteousness is manifested through faith in Jesus (Rom 3:21-26). He is both just and our justifier. The cross is ultimate justice.Conclusion:We can't achieve justice alone. Trust Jesus, who is just and justifies us. Practicing justice pleases God, made possible by Him.Call to Action:At worship, ask the Spirit to reveal injustice in your life (e.g., treating people as means). Submit to Jesus. The communion table symbolizes His ultimate act of justice. Come and receive His body broken and blood shed for you. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI.

“Zohran Mamdani pretends to speak for the oppressed—but he grew up in a $60k/year private school, went to an elite college, is the son of a Columbia professor and a (rich) famous film producer,” writes Eyal Yakoby. What happens to New York if a self-described “socialist” becomes mayor? Kari Lake, John Carney and Mark Eiglarsh take down the latest media and courtroom chaos, joined by Breitbart's John Carney to expose NYC mayoral front-runner Zohran Mamdani's privileged past despite his claims to speak for the oppressed – and why AOC still clings to her brand as a “Bronx girl” despite growing up in the suburbs miles away. “I'm proud of how I grew up and talk about it all the time,” Ocasio-Cortez clarified on X. “My mom cleaned houses and I helped. We cleaned tutors' homes in exchange for SAT prep… Growing up between the Bronx and Yorktown deeply shaped my views of inequality & it's a big reason I believe the things I do today!” Mark Eiglarsh is a veteran criminal defense attorney, former prosecutor, and adjunct law professor at Nova Southeastern University. He is also a media legal analyst and author of Be Happy By Choice. More at https://eiglarshlaw.com Kari Lake is a Senior Advisor for the U.S. Agency for Global Media.

What if I told you that nothing you own is actually yours—and that this truth could radically change how you think about money, stress less, and give more? In this episode, we dig into one of the most transformational shifts in our Christian financial journey: moving from ownership to stewardship. This isn't just a spiritual concept—it's the antidote to both the prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel. We break down: Why guilt fades when you realize you're a steward The 3 principles Jesus taught that flip your finances upside-down How estate sales (yes, really) shook us into reevaluating our relationship with stuff Why multiplication is God's agenda, not just accumulation What “assets under management” means—and why it beats calculating net worth The parable of the talents, fast fashion, and what bike shorts taught us about ethics and obedience This one gets real. Real personal, real biblical, and real practical.

We have the divine capabilities to affect all of reality. Our every thought, every moment, is affecting all of reality. That's how capable we are." — Dr. Steven Young "Our every thought, every emotion is broadcasting light particles away from our body that carry a certain frequency. So we're literally broadcasting our every thought and emotion into all of reality. It's our innate capability of collapsing the infinite waves of light, infinite variations of the now into the exact version of the now that is corresponding to who and what we are." — Dr. Steven Young "Time is not what we think it is. It's not linear. It's a sphere, a space, a locality. And with our consciousness, we can go anywhere within this sphere that we want with our mind. We can bend time. We can travel time. We can experience multiple times or multiple lifetimes in the now.
