Feeling a little crazy in today's Christian dating world? You're not alone. In this rapid-fire Q&A, we're tackling your most-requested questions—friend zone confusion, age gaps, dating in your 30s when options feel scarce, jealousy while “just talking,” and whether marriage in college is wise. Expect Biblical wisdom, practical boundaries, and hopeful encouragement rooted in God's timing.

Money and marriage—two things God designed to bless us, but they can also be two of the greatest sources of stress. What if we turned financial conflict into connection?Dr. Shane Enete joins us today to share six creative ways couples can build stronger relationships by having intentional financial conversations—what he calls “money dates.”Dr. Shane Enete is an Associate Professor of Finance at Biola University and founded the Biola Center for Financial Planning. He is also the author of the book Whole Heart Finances: A Jesus-Centered Guide to Managing Your Money with Joy.Why You Need to Talk About Money—IntentionallyMany couples avoid conversations about money out of fear. A study of 2,000 couples found that half of them were uncomfortable discussing money because they worried it would lead to conflict. The irony is that by avoiding those talks, the conflict only deepens.On average, couples argue about money 58 times a year. But what if, instead of waiting for issues to flare up, you set aside regular time to talk about your finances together—proactively and prayerfully?That's the heart behind the idea of money dates. You might have to rip off the bandage at first, but we want to help couples make these conversations not just necessary—but enjoyable.Turning Financial Talks Into DatesThese aren't meant for finger-pointing but for course correction—a time to realign your financial goals with your values.But also, why not make it a date? Dating can be a lot of fun if you're intentional. So why not combine something enjoyable with something that's often uncomfortable? When you connect in a fun environment, even money talk becomes more meaningful.The key is consistency. Whether it's over dinner, coffee, or a quiet walk, having a regular rhythm of financial connection helps you stay on the same page as a couple—and deepens your trust.Money Date #1: Share Your Money StoryEvery person brings a financial backstory into marriage—habits, fears, and attitudes shaped by family and early experiences.Think of it as your money autobiography. Reflect on what you learned about money growing up, what messages you received from your parents, and how those experiences influence your decisions today.Take your spouse out for dinner and share those stories. You'll gain empathy and understanding for each other's perspectives. When you know your partner's money story, their spending or saving habits make a lot more sense.Try this: Ask each other, “What's your earliest memory of money?” The answers may surprise you—and bring you closer.Money Date #2: Give TogetherGenerosity is one of the most unifying acts a couple can experience. Here are a few ways to make generosity a shared journey:Set a giving goal. Track your progress as a family and celebrate milestones together.Join a giving circle. Partner with friends or your small group to pool resources for a cause you all care about.Create a stretch goal. As your income grows, commit to increasing your giving percentage over time.These conversations shift the focus from money as a source of stress to money as a means of Kingdom impact.Money Date #3: Cook the BooksThis one's both literal and figurative! Instead of going out, stay home and cook a meal together—or grab takeout for a picnic. Use the relaxed environment to talk about your budget rhythm:Who tracks expenses?What budgeting tools or apps will you use?How often will you review spending?The FaithFi app can help simplify this process. It lets couples track giving, spending, and saving all in one place—while keeping biblical wisdom at the center.Money Date #4: Check Your Credit (at the Spa!)Debt can carry emotional weight, so create a peaceful setting for this conversation. A spa day is perfect. It's relaxing—and you can often find affordable day passes.While you unwind, discuss:How much debt do you currently carry?How did your family handle debt growing up?What boundaries would you like to establish regarding credit use?This isn't about blame. It's about caring for each other and agreeing on a plan that both of you believe in.Money Date #5: Number Your DaysThis one takes its inspiration from Psalm 90:12: “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.”Couples should view estate planning as an act of love. When you prepare a will, name a guardian, or establish a power of attorney, you're doing something deeply selfless—caring for others even after you're gone.Spend a date identifying:Who will serve as executor or guardian for your children?How do you want your assets used to bless others?What legacy of faith and generosity do you want to leave behind?Growing Together Through Financial StewardshipMoney dates are about far more than numbers. They're about connection, empathy, and shared purpose. When couples talk about money in ways that honor God and each other, they grow in wisdom—and unity.When you come together around money with openness and grace, you draw closer not just to each other, but to the heart of God.———————————————————————————————————————Dr. Enete's full article, “Six Great Money Dates,” appears in the latest issue of Faithful Steward magazine—available to all FaithFi Partners.When you become a FaithFi Partner with a monthly gift of $35 (or $400 annually), you'll receive Faithful Steward magazine and other exclusive resources to help you grow as a faithful steward.

I've managed to save about $42,000 in a separate account, but now I'd like to start investing that money for his future. I want something safe and low-risk—something that will be there for him when he needs it. What would you recommend?My 27-year-old daughter has a traditional 401(k) from her previous job here in the U.S., but she's now working overseas. She's planning to roll her 401(k) into an IRA with Fidelity. Since she's still young and making this move, would this be a good time to consider one of those backdoor Roth conversions you've discussed before?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Wisdom 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.

Everyone seems to have an opinion on love, relationships, and marriage—but should single people have a say in what happens inside a marriage? In this episode, we dive into the age-old debate: are single friends offering fresh perspective or speaking from inexperience? And on the flip side, do married couples sometimes dismiss valuable wisdom simply because it comes from someone without a ring?Join us as we unpack the role of lived experience, perspective, and wisdom in giving (and receiving) advice. Expect honesty, laughter, a few disagreements, and insights that might just change how you view where good advice really comes from.

Marriage is about becoming one—but what does that mean for your money? For many couples, the question of whether to combine bank accounts or keep them separate is one of the first major financial decisions they face. While the Bible doesn't speak directly to checking accounts, it does give us a clear picture of what unity, trust, and stewardship look like in marriage.What Scripture Says About OnenessIn Mark 10:7–8, Jesus says, “Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”That phrase, “one flesh,” is more than physical—it describes an emotional, spiritual, and practical union. Marriage is about sharing a life together, and that includes finances. The Bible doesn't command couples to have joint accounts, but it does call us to transparency, mutual submission, and faithful stewardship.Joint accounts are one practical way to live this out, offering a structure of accountability and openness. Separate accounts, while not inherently sinful, can sometimes become symbolic of separate lives if not handled with care.A story from a banker friend drives this home. One day, a woman came into the bank distraught after discovering her husband had a secret credit card with thousands of dollars in gambling debt. The shock wasn't just about money—it was about broken trust.Financial infidelity is devastating because it goes deeper than dollars and cents. It damages the foundation of unity. Ephesians 5:21 reminds us: “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.” That submission extends to our financial decisions.Practical Ways to Build Financial UnitySo, what does financial oneness look like in real life? Here are a few steps couples can take:1. Hold Regular Money DatesSet aside time each month to review your budget, giving, and goals. These conversations don't have to be stressful—they can strengthen communication and provide alignment in your marriage.2. Build a Shared Emergency FundSaving three to six months of expenses together demonstrates trust and unity. It says, “We're in this together, no matter what comes.”3. Use Tools That Foster UnityBudgeting apps like the FaithFi app can help you and your spouse manage money together with clarity and purpose. Built on biblical principles, it's more than just software—it's a discipleship tool.Why Financial Unity MattersFinancial unity is ultimately about more than accounts and numbers. It's about our hearts. When couples pursue oneness in their finances, they reflect the greater reality of Christ's love for His church—a bond marked by trust, sacrifice, and faithfulness.Your bank account setup matters far less than your posture toward one another. Ask yourselves:Are we making decisions together?Are we being transparent and honest?Are we aligning our finances with God's purposes?When the answer is yes, your marriage becomes a living testimony of the Gospel.A Bigger Vision for StewardshipAt the end of the day, combining or separating accounts isn't the ultimate issue. The greater call is to live as one—financially, emotionally, and spiritually—while stewarding God's resources faithfully.And if you'd like to go deeper in this journey, I invite you to become a FaithFi Partner. For just $35 a month or $400 a year, you'll receive exclusive benefits, including our quarterly printed magazine, Faithful Steward. It's full of biblical wisdom and practical tools to help you grow as a faithful steward of God's resources.To join, visit FaithFi.com/Partner.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I've paid off my house, but the title company still has my deed. Should I leave it with them, put it in a safety deposit box, or what's the best way to handle my home's title?I've come into $20,000, and I want to invest it wisely. What's the best way to put this money to work?I had a will drafted when my first child was born, but now my youngest is turning 18. I'd like to avoid probate court. What can I do instead of just having a will? I've already added beneficiaries to my accounts and want my house title to transfer upon my death.When I was younger, I made poor financial choices without seeking godly counsel. I want to encourage others to seek advice from wise, godly people before making financial decisions.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Bankrate.comWisdom 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.

For married couples planning their retirement, understanding spousal Social Security benefits can seem like a labyrinth. This week, I'm answering a listener's question about how spouses can maximize their Social Security benefits. Join me as I break down the key rules, eligibility requirements, and strategies that can help you and your spouse make the most of your benefits over your lifetimes.  Whether you're nearing retirement or still a few years away, I can help you understand primary insurance amounts, full retirement age, and what happens if one spouse claims benefits early. If you want to ensure you and your loved one have a smart plan for Social Security, this episode offers essential insights and actionable advice. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... [02:33] Eligible spouses may receive at least half of their partner's full retirement benefit. [05:25] How much of a spousal benefit will you receive?  [07:42] Strategies to manage spousal benefits. [09:54] Spousal benefits are reduced by $1 for every $2 earned over the limit. [10:30] Applying for a spousal benefit. Understanding Spousal and Survivor Social Security Benefits  Spousal benefits exist to ensure that partners in a marriage—including those who spent little or no time in the workforce—can still access a stable retirement income. If you're married, you could be eligible to receive up to half of your spouse's full retirement benefit, commonly referred to as their Primary Insurance Amount (PIA). This benefit is designed for spouses who don't qualify for a significant benefit on their own due to having spent less time in the workforce, perhaps because they were caring for the home or raising a family. At a minimum, every spouse can claim at least 50% of their partner's PIA, but only if their own benefit is less than this amount. This safety net helps ensure that lower-earning spouses are not left without Social Security support in retirement. Eligibility Requirements: Who Qualifies and When? To collect a spousal benefit, several conditions must be met: The Higher-Earning Spouse Must File: You cannot receive a spousal benefit until your spouse has filed for their own Social Security retirement benefit. Minimum Age: The spouse collecting the spousal benefit must be at least 62 years old. Marriage Requirements: You must be legally married, though in some states, common law marriages are recognized. Timing Matters: To collect the full 50%, you must wait until your own full retirement age, which is generally 67 for those born after 1960. Claiming earlier results in a reduced benefit, often as low as 32.5%-37.5% of your spouse's PIA if you file at age 62. For example, in the listener scenario discussed in the episode, the wife began her benefit at 64. Because she started before her own full retirement age, she is only eligible for 37.5% of her husband's benefit—less than half. Strategies for Maximizing Spousal Benefits Determining when to claim Social Security is a nuanced decision: Higher-Earning Spouse Delays, Lower-Earning Spouse Claims Early: Often, the lower-earning spouse might claim their own benefit early, while the higher earner waits until full retirement age or even 70 to claim. This maximizes the survivor benefit for the lower earner, as a widow or widower can "step up" to the deceased spouse's higher benefit. Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA): Increases in Social Security benefits due to COLA apply both to individual and spousal benefits. Because COLA is a percentage, it may cause dollar amounts to shift, but it will not change the eligibility for claiming spousal benefits unless there is a significant gap. Survivor Benefits: If the higher earner passes away, the surviving spouse can "take over" the higher benefit. This makes it advantageous for the higher earner to delay benefits if the couple is concerned about long-term financial security. How to Apply for Spousal Benefits Applying is straightforward and can be done online at SSA.gov, by calling the Social Security office, or in person. Be prepared to provide proof of age, a marriage certificate, and possibly your spouse's work records. Maximizing Social Security as a couple comes down to knowing the rules, timing your decisions, and using strategic thinking to boost your household's retirement income.

Following that, the topic of marriage was vaulted into people's minds after Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement, and that got Joe thinking about an idea someone floated on social media. Given that around 50% of marriages end in divorce, should married couples be required to renew their marriage license every few years, and have the option to opt out of their marriage if they so choose?

Married Couples, do you still make out with your spouse?

We'll also talk about the difference between hosting vs. hospitality, how to get over the fear of rejection, and why prayer is the best place to start when seeking friendships. ✨ Resources + Mentions Weekly Marriage Meeting Template (Free Download) Marriage on Mission 7-Day Challenge Whether you're newly married or deep in the trenches of family life, this conversation will encourage you to pursue friendships that strengthen your marriage and your faith.

We'll share our favorite stories from the collection, highlight some of the best one-liners, and celebrate Jeeves as the quiet mastermind behind every narrowly-avoided disaster.Whether you're revisiting these stories or meeting Bertie and Jeeves for the first time, join us for a joyful, breezy conversation about one of comedy literature's most iconic duos.Support the showRecommend us a Book!If there's a book you want to recommend to us to read, just send us a message/email and we'll pop it on our long list (but please read our review policy on our website first for the books we accept).Social MediaWebsite: https://teachingmycattoread.wordpress.com/Email: teachingmycattoread@gmail.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/teachmycat2read/Tumblr: https://teachingmycattoread.tumblr.comYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFXi9LNQv8SBQt8ilgTZXtQListener Surveyhttps://forms.gle/TBZUBH4SK8dez8RP9

Some time ago, the British journalist Sophie Elmhirst was reporting a story about people who try to escape the land and to live on the water. “I found myself trolling around as you do in these moments, online and on a website devoted to castaway stories and shipwreck stories,” she tells host Gilbert Cruz. “There were lots of photographs and tales of lone wild men who were pitched up on desert islands and had various escapades. And in among all of these was a tiny little black-and-white picture of a man and a woman."The couple were Maurice and Maralyn Bailey, a husband and wife who took to the seas from 1970s England, selling their suburban home to buy a boat and sail to New Zealand. Nine months into the trip, a sperm whale breached under their boat, leaving them stranded on a crude raft with an assortment of salvaged items, luckily including water, canned food, a camera — and a biography of King Richard III. Elmhirst tells the Baileys' story in her new book, “A Marriage at Sea." Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.
