    Overview:

    In Episode 22, Greg Carroll brings us into the rich wisdom of Proverbs 22 with a focus on legacy, debt, and discipleship. It's not just about what you leave behind—it’s about who you are becoming and what you're modeling. This episode challenges listeners to prioritize character over cash, discipline over debt, and generational wisdom over momentary gain.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • Why a good name is more valuable than a big portfolio

    • The spiritual and practical dangers of debt and co-signing

    • How financial discipline today shapes your children's future

    • What it looks like to train—not just teach—the next generation

    • How to build a legacy that’s rooted in biblical values, not just wealth

      Take Action:

      • Reflect: Are you pursuing riches at the expense of your name or values?

      • Evaluate: Where is debt holding you back or impacting your peace?

      • Apply: Identify one habit or decision that models financial wisdom to your family

        Pray:

        “Lord, help me value character over comfort, freedom over appearance, and legacy over lifestyle.”
