Many of us know someone who is in addiction recovery, but few of us really understand what that means. What does this healing journey actually look like? How can we best support someone going through it? We find ourselves worrying that we'll say or do the wrong thing, and we may feel hopeless or confused when our loved one continues to struggle with substance use. Caroline Beidler joins us to offer a compassionate guide for understanding addiction and the recovery lifestyle.

An estimated $124 trillion is expected to pass from Baby Boomers to their heirs by 2048, marking one of the largest transfers of wealth in history. And women are expected to play a particularly significant role.

Sharon Epps, President of Kingdom Advisors, joined the show today to discuss this historic shift and the opportunity it presents for women to approach wealth with wisdom, preparation, and biblical faithfulness.

Economists have been talking about the Great Wealth Transfer for years, but it is no longer simply a future prediction. The transfer is already underway.

Women are uniquely positioned within it in part because they tend to live longer than men. As a result, many women will experience both intragenerational transfers—wealth passing from a spouse—and intergenerational transfers from parents and other family members.

But inheritance is only one part of the picture.

Women already earn income, manage household resources, invest, give, and make significant financial decisions. Research indicates that women are involved in approximately 94% of household purchasing decisions.

That means the stewardship opportunity ahead doesn't begin when an inheritance arrives. It is already here.

Women using financial resources to advance God’s purposes is nothing new.

Luke 8:1–3 describes several women who supported Jesus and His disciples out of their own means. These women were not merely observers of Christ’s ministry. Their financial generosity helped make the work possible.

Likewise, in Romans 16:1–2, Paul commends Phoebe and describes her as a benefactor of many, including himself. In a culture where women often had limited social and economic influence, Phoebe used what God had entrusted to her to serve others and help advance the gospel.

Their examples remind us that financial stewardship has always been about something greater than accumulating or managing money. It is about faithfully using whatever God provides for His purposes.

1 Corinthians 4:2 says, “Moreover, it is required of stewards that they be found faithful.”

That calling applies to every believer, but the practical responsibilities of stewardship can look different in different seasons.

A woman may move through seasons as a student, professional, wife, mother, caregiver, business owner, widow, retiree, or some combination of these roles. At various times, she may be an earner, an inheritor, a household financial manager, or all three.

The circumstances change, but the responsibility remains: stay informed, equipped, and engaged with the resources God has entrusted to you.

That can mean understanding the household finances, learning how investments work, participating in conversations about estate planning, preparing for retirement, or developing a thoughtful plan for generosity.

Faithful stewardship does not require becoming a financial expert. But it does require engagement.

For some women, managing finances comes naturally. Others may quickly say, “I’m just not a numbers person.”

But stewardship is about much more than numbers.

Money is a tool that can help us care for family, support ministries, meet needs, practice hospitality, create opportunities for others, and generously participate in work that matters to us.

Seen through that lens, financial stewardship becomes less about mastering spreadsheets and more about connecting resources with purpose.

Whether wealth is earned, inherited, or managed on behalf of a household, every dollar presents an opportunity to ask: How can I use what God has entrusted to me faithfully?

Every new driver has to pass a road-sign test, and the trickiest sign of them all is always the yield.  Today on BOLD STEPS, Mark Jobe kicks off a series called Out of Control, explaining what it looks like to yield your rights for the sake of the Gospel.  Ready for a challenge to your own “right of way”? Listen to Bold Steps with Pastor Mark Jobe.

In Part 1 of “Rewarded,” Crawford Loritts looks at the first of four ways we’ll be rewarded in heaven. He explains that rewards keep us moving toward God. Suffering transforms us. Rewards in the Bible remind us that we’re on a journey, a pilgrimage down here. This world is not the payoff.  We are not home yet.
