SeedTime Money (Christian living & Personal Finances)

When God tells you to SPEND more


Listen Later

What if being “too good” at saving and stewarding money is actually holding you back from obedience to God?

In this episode, we share the story of friends who, in their leanest financial season, felt God ask them to spend way beyond what made sense. Every financial expert would’ve called it foolish—but their “irresponsible obedience” led to one of the most important divine encounters of their lives.

We’ll unpack:

  • Why sometimes God asks us to spend more instead of saving more
  • How to know the difference between your desires and the Spirit’s leading
  • Why true stewardship is less about your wisdom and more about your obedience
  • Three practical questions to ask when you sense God nudging you to spend beyond reason

If you’ve ever wrestled with the tension between “wise stewardship” and radical obedience, this conversation is for you.
