In the inaugural episode of the Steward Lab Podcast, hosts James and Amberlee Rich embark on a journey to empower listeners to become better stewards of their resources, including time, money, relationships, health, and careers.

Through personal anecdotes like their transformative hot tub conversations, they illustrate the importance of being intentional with what God has given. The episode centers around the pivotal question, 'Am I in a position to say yes to the things God is calling me to do?' and discusses actionable ways to remove barriers holding us back.

The Riches also introduce their lab concept, emphasizing experimentation and practical application of biblical principles to steward every aspect of life effectively.

The episode concludes with a thoughtful prayer and invites listeners to join in this ongoing experiment to better align their lives with God's purpose.
