We are created with emotions. Solomon wrote there is a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance (Eccl 3:4). In other words, we have a spectrum of feelings within our hearts that we’ll likely experience throughout our lives. Simultaneously, we make financial decisions every day. That means our emotions will cross paths with our personal finances, and preparing for that is important in order for us to remain faithful in our stewardship. In this episode, we talk about how much emotions may drive money decisions. Then, we provide a few tips to find the balance between logical & emotional.
