Turning Good Intentions Into Generosity with Kendra VanderMeulen

Most Christians want to be generous But wanting to give and actually following through are two different things With so many worthy causes competing needs and financial decisions to consider even the best intentions can become overwhelming Without a plan our giving can become reactive rather than purposeful driven more by the requests we receive than by a thoughtful understanding of how God has entrusted us to steward His resources So how can we move from good intentions to meaningful action Kendra VanderMeulen CEO of the National Christian Foundation NCF joined the show today to discuss how developing a thoughtful [... more]

Where Have You Placed Your Security?

The wealth of the rich is their fortified city they imagine it a wall too high to scale Proverbs NIV Money can provide real protection but it can also create a dangerous illusion of security We may begin to believe that enough savings investments or possessions can shield us from whatever life brings In Samuel we encounter a wealthy man named Nabal whose story illustrates the danger of placing too much confidence in earthly riches His experience reminds us that while financial resources are valuable tools they can never provide the ultimate security our hearts desire Nabal A Wealthy Man [... more]

Defined by Christ, Not Wealth

Money can tell you how much you have but it makes a terrible answer to the question Who am I Wealth is a gift to steward but it was never meant to become our identity Yet in a culture that often measures success by income possessions and financial security it's easy to begin defining ourselves by what we have or what we lack Scripture offers a different perspective In fact some of Jesus' most memorable teachings about wealth reveal what happens when possessions become central to a person's identity When Wealth Becomes Your IdentityHave you ever noticed how Scripture describes [... more]

Preparing the Next Steward

Jonathan Edwards once said True legacy consists not of what we leave behind but of what we instill in others That's an important reminder especially when we think about money and inheritance All of us have a natural desire to provide for the people we love Whether it's our children grandchildren or others God has entrusted to our care we want to leave them in a better position than we were That's a good desire Proverbs says A good man leaves an inheritance to his children's children But Scripture encourages us to think about inheritance as more than simply transferring [... more]

Should Christians Have a Prenup?

God's Word says that a husband and wife become one flesh But it doesn't say anything directly about prenuptial agreements So does that mean Christians should never have one A prenuptial agreement or prenup is a legal contract a couple enters into before marriage It typically establishes how assets property and other financial matters would be handled if the marriage ended in divorce For some couples that may seem like practical planning But Christians should consider more than whether a prenup makes financial sense We should also ask what it communicates about marriage and whether it supports or undermines the [... more]

What the Early Church Can Teach Us About Generosity with Dr. Darrell Bock

There was not a needy person among them That remarkable statement in Acts describes the early church's generosity The first Christians freely shared what God had entrusted to them so their community's needs were met Their example can sound almost foreign in a culture that prizes independence and personal ownership But according to Dr Darrell Bock Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies at Dallas Theological Seminary DTS the generosity we see in Acts reflects something much deeper than a particular financial system It reveals what happens when people begin to see themselves their possessions and one another differently because [... more]
