Money is one of the biggest realities every ministry leader faces, especially in the Portland metro and the Pacific Northwest. In this episode, Tim and Gabe welcome Ahshuwah back to the show, then jump into a practical conversation about fundraising, church planting models, generosity discipleship, and what it looks like to build sustainable ministry without letting money drive the mission.

You will hear the team talk through vocational vs. co-vocational approaches, right-sizing ministry expectations, how culture affects giving, and why some planters may actually raise too much money upfront. They also explore creative funding ideas, including nonprofit partnerships, business income streams, and even a brief (and spicy) Bitcoin conversation.
