The Crown Stewardship Podcast

This week on the Crown Podcast, we continue our three-part mini-series from some live teaching called The 7 Steps to Financial Freedom. Chuck begins by recounting the story of how he and his wife, Ann, finally got on the same page financially. Once they agreed to agree with God, not only did their finances improve - but so did their marriage. Chuck then continues into sharing what should be our highest financial priority: giving. When Chuck and Ann made the decision to put God first in their finances, their priorities shifted as they began to focus on laying up treasures in Heaven. We know you'll enjoy these relatable and encouraging stories!

This week on the Crown Stewardship Podcast, we welcome Brian Peterson, founder of Faces of Mankind. Brian grew up knowing he wanted to be an artist, and started his career as a car designer. But when he came to faith as an adult, he started using his God-given creative gifts to paint portraits of his homeless neighbors in order to show to them and those who see the paintings, that God values each one of them - and from that Faces of Santa Ana was born. Since then, Faces of Santa Ana has expanded to become Faces of Mankind. Brian has now become a mural artist with prominent walls featured all over the Southern California region. You will be inspired and encouraged as you hear powerful stories of how following God's leading has brought him to where he is today and excited for more of what God has in store for Brian!
