Welcome Back! In Episode 8, Discipline to Deal with Debt, we discuss how debt enslaves us as a people. We also discuss how all debt isn't bad. We go even deeper into how the stronghold of debt keeps us from serving God and what scripture says about all of this. With our wonderful guest, Dr. Anthony Morris, we share what we can put into daily practice to pay off our debt. 

Dr. Anthony Morris, like previous guests Ms. Berenstain and Dr. Muhammad, worked with our host, Shay, at the former Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Now, he is the Pastor and founder of Restoration Life Ministries. This ministry's focus is on restoring people back to God through His word. It is their belief that the only way to change the narrative of your life story is through the word of God.

Hola! Welcome to episode 5, Managing Money in a Marriage, with our guest Mrs. Tanisha Allen. During this episode, we discuss an important but taboo question for many married couples, “how should money be managed in the marriage - your money, my money, our money, God’s money?” Next, we talk about why finances bring such discord in a marriage. Then we have the nerve to discuss, “if I am the breadwinner does that mean that I get to make the majority of the financial decisions?” Wow. You don’t want to miss this one. 😁

Our talented guest is a military spouse, homemaker,  accredited financial counselor candidate, personal and small business owner, professional organizer, AND book reviewer.

Salutations. In our fourth episode, Giving with Glee, we discuss what it means to be a cheerful giver and who to give to - the Church, the Poor, and/or the Hungry.

She previously served as pastor of Christ First, ICCC. Monica knew from childhood that she was called to ministry.
