"The Fruit of the Spirit: SELF-CONTROL" Romans 8:29 ESV Galatians 5:22-24 ESV John 15:1-5 ESV 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 ESV Proverbs 16:32 ESV Proverbs 25:28 ESV Hebrews 12:5-7 ESV Philippians 2:13 ESV 2 Timothy 1:6-7 ESV Definition and Importance (from biblehub.com): Self-control, also known as temperance, is a virtue that involves the ability to regulate one's emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in the face of temptations and impulses. It is a critical aspect of Christian character and spiritual maturity, often associated with the fruit of the Spirit. Self-control is essential for living a life that is pleasing to God and is a mark of true discipleship.

Have you looked at ways, beyond the obvious, that you might be able to give to those problems weighing on your heart? In this episode, Jeff, Jeff, and Jon discuss: Loving people in a hard place is like Jesus loved people in a hard place.Obeying the clear calls of God, even when you don't know the reasons.Giving to the causes God places in your heart.Creative solutions to the problems God puts in your heart. Key Takeaways: Character formation happens in our hardest seasons.People need to hear about Jesus. What are we doing to help more people learn about Him?Giving is a spiritual journey, not a mechanical one. Only God can help grow that love of giving in their hearts.Kids need to understand the concept of giving from an early age. Talk to them about giving and give them opportunities to give. "You should be talking to your advisors, maybe to an NCF office, or to someone that can help you understand there are opportunities on your balance sheet that you can give, that you might not realize you can give." — Jon Eisenberg About Jon Eisenberg: I long to see askers, givers, and systems that increasingly reflect the lavish generosity of Our Father. I started working in the ministry of generosity in 2000. I have since spent half my career in Major or Principal Gift work and half in Executive leadership of high-performing teams that grow top-line contributions by focusing on helping people look forward to giving. This grows out of the conviction that fundraising is a spiritual discipline, whether asking or giving, we are trusting God to take care of tomorrow as we live sacrificially today. I want for the givers I serve and the teams I lead, not from them (Phil 4:17).Today, I get to walk with givers, their advisors, and the ministries they love as they develop a Giving Strategy that seeks to maximize both the joy they feel in giving as a family and the impact they have as they make the most of all God has given to them.

“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children…” - Proverbs 13:22That verse teaches that a life of faithful stewardship will enable you to leave something of great value to your heirs. How you do it can impact future generations. Jeanne McMains joins us today to talk about “intentional inheritance.” Jeanne McMains has been a practicing attorney in estate planning, business succession, and non-profits since 1995. She currently serves as the Vice President of Gift Planning with The National Christian Foundation (NCF), where she assists families nationwide with achieving their charitable gift-planning goals.What Is an Intentional Inheritance?An intentional inheritance is more than the distribution of wealth. It's a prayerful, purposeful plan for shaping the lives of those who will receive what we leave behind. Inheritance is one of the most significant stewardship decisions we make. It's not just about how much but how—and why—we give.This perspective calls for a deep shift. Before passing on wealth, we must first pass on wisdom. Otherwise, unmanaged or misunderstood wealth can do more harm than good.Start with Prayerful IntrospectionAsk yourself: What role does wealth play in my life? Reframe your mindset around money—not as a measure of success or security but as a tool for Kingdom work. Wealth is an entrustment from God, not an end in itself. That means laying it down at the cross daily, asking the Lord to help us steward it with humility and grace.Three Types of InheritanceTo simplify this big task, here are three kinds of inheritance every Christian family should consider:1. Inheritance to SpendThis is the traditional kind of inheritance—resources intended to provide opportunities, experiences, and essentials. Think of it as financial fuel to help your heirs live productive, content lives. But maturity matters. Consider using this inheritance to fund training, travel, or education before a large transfer, especially if the heir is still developing financial literacy or spiritual maturity.2. Inheritance to ShapeThis is where legacy comes to life. Instead of simply giving money, consider shaping character through shared experiences—like mission trips, retreats, or projects that reflect your family's values.3. Inheritance to ShareWe're blessed to be a blessing. Set aside a portion of your estate to fuel generosity in the next generation. This might include donor-advised funds, charitable trusts, or other giving vehicles your heirs can use to support ministries or causes close to their hearts. This is how we teach our children to reflect God's love through giving.Practical Steps to Craft an Intentional InheritanceHere are four foundational steps to take:1. Engage in Open DialogueTalk with your heirs about the purpose behind the inheritance. Focus less on how much and more on why. Share your values, your heart for the Kingdom, and how you hope the inheritance will be used to bless others. This conversation builds trust, understanding, and spiritual alignment.It's not about dollars and zeros; it's about attitude, opportunity, and calling.2. Work with Faith-Aligned AdvisorsChoose financial and legal professionals who share your biblical worldview. Whether you're working with an estate attorney or a financial planner, the right team will help ensure your legacy is stewarded with wisdom and integrity. That's why we recommend connecting with a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA). To find one near you, visit FaithFi.com and click “Find a Professional.”3. Prepare Your HeirsDon't wait until the inheritance is distributed. Teach your heirs financial literacy and spiritual stewardship now. Let them stumble, learn, and grow while you're still here to mentor and encourage them.4. Use Strategic ToolsLeverage estate planning vehicles like wills, trusts, donor-advised funds, and charitable gift plans. These tools help ensure your assets are distributed in a way that promotes ongoing generosity and reflects your commitment to faithful living.Even well-meaning inheritances can lead to confusion, entitlement, or spiritual drift without intentional planning. But with prayer, purpose, and preparation, your legacy can be a launching pad for generations of Kingdom impact.Want to learn more?Explore practical tools and gospel-centered resources at NCFgiving.com to help you build a legacy of generosity and faith.

Jeff Waldron, a gift planning attorney at the National Christian Foundation, began his career in corporate law before God got his attention in a powerful way. He later found his way to NCF and discovered that his love for the Lord, his desire for pastoral ministry, and his experience in tax law beautifully intersected to help givers amplify the impact of their generosity. Jeff acts as a guide to help givers navigate the more nuanced and complex non-cash gifts. He is overflowing with practical wisdom, powerful giving strategies, and a passion to help people become faithful stewards of what God has given them to manage. You don't want to miss all he has to share! Major Topics Include: Jeff's early career and coming to faith How Jeff connected to NCF Amplifying the effectiveness of generosity through non-cash gifts What makes a non-cash gift so powerful Examples of counseling someone through giving complex assets Thinking through when to give a large asset The nuances of giving a business Quotes to Remember “Whose likeness and inscription is on you?” “I feel like the Lord has given me the blessing of doing work that He's fitted me for.” “By giving the non-cash asset, you're really supercharging the impact you can have.” “Stewardship isn't just how much you give, it's also how you give. And if you can give in a certain way that has a 40% extra impact, then that's something to consider.” “We're not here to replace your advisor. We're more like a sherpa that's walked the mountain, and we can point out the best places to walk.” “I really don't care what kind if gift somebody makes. I want them to be informed so that they can be faithful with what they have.” “The big transactions don't excite me as much as the transforming ones.” Links from the Show National Christian Foundation (see our interview with President Emeritus, David Wills) The Finish Line Community Facebook Group The Finish Line Community LinkedIn Group Bible References from the Show Matthew 22:21b | You Belong to God Then he said to them, “Therefore render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.” Romans 8:28 | Work Together for Good And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

You're generous; you love to give. But how do you know that your giving is having a real impact?It's great that you have a heart for giving. The next step is to make sure your giving really counts…and that's by aligning it with God's heart. David Wills is here today to help us do that.David Wills is President Emeritus of The National Christian Foundation (NCF). He is also the co-author of Investing in God's Business (The “How To” of Smart Christian Giving) and numerous articles and lectures nationwide. The Three Big Questions of GenerosityWhen it comes to giving, most Christians wrestle with three fundamental questions:Why should I be generous?How do I give?Where should I give?The first two questions deal with the heart and the head—our motivations for generosity and the practical ways to implement it. But the third question—where should I give?—often receives less attention. Instead of starting with our passions, we should begin with God's priorities.God asks us to be generous on every occasion so that it brings Him glory and joy to our hearts. But instead of asking, “What am I passionate about?” We should ask, “What is God passionate about?”A Framework for Giving: The Three-by-Three GridTo help believers align their giving with God's priorities, David introduced a three-by-three framework that incorporates both geography and biblical causes.1. The Geography of GivingA great biblical guide for the where of giving comes from Acts 1:8:“You will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”This verse provides a three-tiered approach to geographic giving:Local (Jerusalem)—Giving within our immediate communities, such as supporting our local church and meeting local needs. National (Judea and Samaria)—Supporting broader efforts within our country, including church planting, evangelism, and charitable organizations. International (Ends of the Earth)—Expanding generosity to global missions, Bible translation, and aid to those who have never heard the Gospel.Most people focus on what's right in front of them—their local church or nearby needs. However, a biblical giving strategy challenges us to think beyond our immediate surroundings.2. The Biblical Priorities of GivingScripture reveals three overarching themes that reflect God's heart for giving:The Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20)—Supporting efforts that spread the Gospel, such as evangelism, church planting, missions, and discipleship. The Greatest Commandment (Matthew 22:37-38)—Giving to ministries that help people grow in their love for God, including churches, theological education, and discipleship initiatives. The Great Compassion (Matthew 22:39)—Caring for our neighbors by giving to those in need—orphans, widows, the poor, and the vulnerable.These three biblical priorities form the vertical axis of the giving framework, while geography forms the horizontal axis.By overlaying these two dimensions—geography and biblical priorities—believers can develop a well-rounded and God-centered giving plan. This framework helps us see the gaps in our giving. Many believers focus on what's nearby, but God calls us to care for those who have never heard the Gospel or are in extreme need.Making Giving a Family PracticeOne of the most powerful aspects of this framework is its ability to teach children about generosity. Parents can use this model to discuss giving priorities as a family and even create a family giving plan that reflects God's heart.We encourage families to:Sit down together and map out their giving on the three-by-three frameworkDiscuss where they are giving too much or too little.Involve children in researching and selecting ministries that align with biblical priorities.Regularly review and adjust their giving strategy as a family.For those who want to track their giving over time, organizations like the National Christian Foundation (NCF) provide tools to help families and individuals monitor their generosity.Aligning Your Giving with God's HeartUltimately, giving isn't about following personal passions—it's about reflecting God's heart. By using a biblical framework for giving, we can be more intentional and experience greater joy in generosity.Take Action Today:Assess your current giving. Does it align with God's heart?Use the three-by-three framework to create a more balanced, intentional plan.Involve your family in discussions about generosity.Consider using a giving platform like NCF to track and refine your generosity over time.To read David's full article on this topic, explore Faithful Steward, FaithFi's new quarterly magazine.

It's a special Giving Tuesday episode and I'm joined by Brandon Davis, president of National Christian Foundation (NCF) Carolinas, to explore how generosity brings love, hope and healing in the aftermath of disasters like Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Brandon shares inspiring stories of resilience and practical ways to support impacted communities through giving and prayer, encouraging everyone to play a role in both immediate relief and long-term recovery. In this episode, we discuss: The transformative power of generosity The role of generosity in supporting disaster relief and recovery How NCF facilitates impactful giving Integrating prayer and action in responding to crises Key Takeaways: Generosity is a powerful expression of love and faith, as shown by NCF donors and so many others who have increased giving, sending more grants and funds to disaster relief. Local non-profits and ministries have focused their mission into disaster recovery, clearing roads, housing volunteers, and more, aiding communities in Western North Carolina. Prayer is central to impactful giving, inspiring donors to support with spiritual intent and sustained commitment. “Prepare the way with prayer. Sometimes we jump to doing without preparing the way with prayer. So, I have to remind myself and others around me constantly to prepare the way with prayer.” - Brandon Davis “My prayer is that [this episode] would inspire you and encourage you in your generous journey to impact the culture for God's glory, whether that is in Western North Carolina, your church, your city, your community, your nation, or somewhere else in the world.” - John Putnam Resources Mentioned: How to Help Victims of Hurricane Helene: https://www.ncfgiving.com/stories/how-to-help-victims-of-hurricane-helene/ How to Give Effectively in Times of Crisis and Beyond: https://www.ncfgiving.com/stories/how-to-give-effectively-in-times-of-crisis-and-beyond/ CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW MORE MONEY MADE FAITHFUL!
