008: Secular vs. Biblical Worldview of Money
Imagine you’re Dr. Dolittle and could speak to animals. Today, you decide to talk to a fish in a fishbowl and asked, “how’s the water today?” The fish looks at you surprised and asks, “What is water?” As humans, we have more in common with that fish than we would like to believe. In today’s episode, we are going to be exploring our “water”. It’s the filter through which we understand and make sense of our world. Today, we’ll be discussing the importance of a Biblical Worldview especially as it relates to money!Learn more at: StewardologyPodcast.comSchedule a Personal Stewardship Review at: StewardologyPodcast.com/ReviewGet in touch with us at: Contact@StewardologyPodcast.comor call us at: (800) 688-5800Send us episode ideas!

007: Priority #5 - Luxuries
In today’s episode, we are going to begin to lay out for you what we believe the Bible tells us about the fifth sequential principle of money management...LUXURIES. For over 30 years we have passionately taught that after we give to the Lord, save for our family, spend wisely to pay our bills on time, and look for the needs of others through offering. Then, with the “surplus” income we can choose to spend on some of the “luxuries” of life. Are luxuries bad in and of themselves? How should we enjoy them?Join us today on The Stewardology Podcast.Learn more at: StewardologyPodcast.comSchedule a Personal Stewardship Review at: StewardologyPodcast.com/ReviewGet in touch with us at: Contact@StewardologyPodcast.comor call us at: (800) 688-5800Send us episode ideas!

006: Priority #4 - Offerings
Today’s episode is going to be a good one! We are going to lay out what we believe the Bible says about the fourth sequential principle of money management...OFFERINGS. For over 30 years we have passionately taught that after we give generously back to the Lord of our first-fruits and blessings, and then take a portion of the remaining money and save it, we are to then spend wisely and pay our bills on time. Now that our bills are paid, we have the privilege to look for the needs of others and be a blessing through what we call “offering”.

005: Priority #3 - Spend
In today’s episode, we are going to begin to lay out for you what we believe the Bible tells us about the third sequential principle of money management...and that is SPEND. For over 30 years we have passionately taught that first, we give to our local church to honor the Lord, then we build savings to protect our family. Next we are to spend wisely and pay our bills on time. This has everything to do with our testimony and reputation.

In today’s episode, we are going to begin to lay out for you what we believe the Bible tells us about the second sequential principle of money management...and that is SAVE. For over 30 years we have passionately preached and taught that after we give generously back to the Lord of our first-fruits and blessings, we are to next, take a portion of the remaining money and save it.

003: Priority #1 - Give
In today’s episode, we are going to begin to lay out for you what we believe the Bible tells us about God’s priorities regarding our financial stewardship. We firmly believe that God has richly blessed the church with the financial resources to make huge progress towards fulfilling the Great Commission. Yet, many people in churches today do not understand their opportunity or responsibility in financial stewardship to unleash the power of the Gospel on the world today.Learn more at: StewardologyPodcast.comSchedule a Personal Stewardship Review at: StewardologyPodcast.com/ReviewGet in touch with us at: Contact@StewardologyPodcast.comor call us at: (800) 688-5800Send us episode ideas!

002: The Context of Stewardship (Haggai)
As a believer, we all understand that God owns it all, that we are just the temporary managers of God’s assets. It’s very common for us to meet Christians who think that the majority of what God has to say on the topic of money is to give some of it to the church (i.e. tithing). They are often surprised to find that the Word of God has much more to say on the topic of money and finance. In fact, all throughout the Bible, God is teaching us how to trust him with our resources. Today, we’re going to introduce how we think, handle, and advise Christians on Stewardship and prioritization.Learn more at: StewardologyPodcast.comSchedule a Personal Stewardship Review at: StewardologyPodcast.com/ReviewGet in touch with us at: Contact@StewardologyPodcast.comor call us at: (800) 688-5800Send us episode ideas!
