Let's Talk Money

At the start of this new year, Dave and Reb look at the reference points in our lives that can encourage good financial decisions, but also those that don't. They tackle how we compare ourselves to our neighbours, and how that affects our financial decisions and our happiness. Looking at Proverbs 23:17, they share God's perspective and how He admonishes us not to let our hearts envy others, but instead to be zealous for the fear of the Lord. On today's show they reference a podcast called the Happiness Lab Episode 3 A Silver Lining by Dr. Laurie Santos (https://www.happinesslab.fm/). Today's show is sponsored by More Than Enough, a financial coaching company that helps bring financial hope and freedom into people's everyday lives. Go to www.morethanenough.ca for more information.

Dave and Reb love the Christmas season, and they love the story of Jesus’ coming. For the second year in a row, they have decided to share this story with their podcast listeners, and invite you to picture yourself in the story of Christ’s birth. Are you a shepherd receiving the news, or the Innkeeper perplexed by the young pregnant woman before him? Imagine what it would have been like for any of these people as they became witnesses to this great story of redemption. Pause. Listen or read along. Imagine. Pray. Give thanks. Interspersed in today’s recording are songs from several Christian artists including Brian Doerksen, Amy Grant, For King and Country, and others. Dave and Reb forego talking about money, and instead encourage listeners to focus on the magnificent story of Jesus’ first coming. Aired: December 20th, 2019 on CHRI Radio 99.1FM in Ottawa, Canada.

Dave and Reb talk about the heart issues around money today, specifically in light of this Christmas season. They want to remind us that God sent His Son to be the physical presence of God's goodness, redemption and love in our lives. On our financial journeys we can forget that He is Emmanuel - God with Us! Jesus came and entered our mistakes, our muck, our joys and our victories. There is no financial mistake or victory too great that He won't walk with us through them. On today's show, Dave and Reb want to encourage listeners with that truth - He is Emmanuel, God with us! Tune in and listen to their conversation. Today's show is sponsored by More Than Enough, a financial coaching company that helps bring financial hope and freedom into people's everyday lives.

Dave and Reb love hearing stories, and on today's show Sean and Roz Woodland share their spiritual and financial journey based on a proverb they love from Proverbs 15:22: "Plans go wrong for lack of advice; many advisors bring success."
