The Faith and Money Podcast

Most people commonly associate leadership with managing people. However, in today's episode, Keith and Crystal will explore a different perspective on leadership. They are joined by Brenda Jung, the founder of We Lead This, a mastermind on leadership for teens, who will shed light on the significance of self-leadership.

According to Brenda, "The most effective leaders who demonstrate courage and confidence are those who choose to ground their identities and self-worth not in their own performance and reputation, but in Jesus Christ's. These leaders can truly serve, give, bless, and lead with supernatural self-discipline and resilience."

During this episode, we will delve into the concept of "self-leadership" and discuss why it seems to be lacking in today's society. Our conversation will not only address this issue in relation to children but also highlight its impact on adults. We will explore how the absence of self-leadership affects Christian families and their ability to build generational wealth.

Join us as we explore the importance of self-leadership and its implications for personal growth, family dynamics, and financial well-being within the context of faith.

Tune in to this insightful episode and discover how self-leadership can transform your life and those around you.

This is a very important episode of the Faith and Money Podcast that you shouldn’t miss. Even if you’re not in pastoral ministry, this episode is for you.

Have you ever been apart of a church where the pastor resigned? There are many reasons that a pastor could leave a particular role. But more often than not those transitions are filled with conflict, hurt, and bitterness. Too often the gossip that erupts from these situations is scandalous and deeply hurtful.

The consequences are pretty serious when the minister is forced to leave a church. It’s a lot different than leaving a job. A minister could take a year or more before they find their next ministry assignment. Many times the biggest consequence is the loss of community. The whole family may feel ostracized, especially if the split was due to the result of sin.

The church seems very good at judging, damaging, and destroying it’s shepherd.

Bill Tom, however, has seen the need for the church to do better and has provided a platform to help both churches and ministers separate more peacefully and without so much trauma for everyone involved. The cost for this service in my estimation is negligible, but the peace and harmony for everyone involved is invaluable.

Blended Families are not a new phenomenon. They are definitely different today than they were 150 years ago or even during the Bible.

Combining finances in a blended marriage is uniquely complex and different than other families. The first thing to note is that many blended families financial decisions will involve decisions with ex-spouses or parents not within the home. It’s all too easy to allow past mistakes and the results of failed relationships to carry over into the present.

Lupe understands these complexities and loves helping blended families navigate their finances in a way that honors the Lord.
