  • Hustling and Flowing with the Spirit

    Hustling and Flowing with the Spirit

    To strike a balance between hustling and flowing with the Spirit, we need to both work hard and be patient and trust that He will open the right doors at the right time. Psalm 37:7 encourages us, “Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him.”  As we pursue financial growth, we need to…

  • Now is the Time for Generosity

    Now is the Time for Generosity

    I have heard many people express the sentiment that they will be generous at a later point in their life. Usually they say during retirement or after some financial milestone that allows them to feel financially safe and secure. In the book of James, we find a powerful reminder of the importance of taking action now to…

  • Timing To Buy That 1 Stock

    Timing To Buy That 1 Stock

    If you haven’t created a stock watchlist yet, it’s high time you do. I suggest using an app to curate a list of stocks you want to monitor. A quick daily scroll through this list will give you a better understanding of how each stock is performing. To enhance your decision-making process, consider incorporating these…

  • Commit Your Work

    Commit Your Work

    Proverbs 16:3 Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established As Christian fathers, we often find ourselves entangled in the complexities of life, juggling responsibilities, ambitions, and the desire to provide for our families.

    I recently had the privilege of connecting with Keyno Hanna (https://keynohanna.podbean.com). I was encouraged by listening to his financial journey and by what God is teaching him. Keyno has a heart for embodying and teaching others on godliness with contentment. We all know that navigating the financial journey can be overwhelming and challenging, especially for Christian fathers striving…

  • Cost of Living Reality

    Cost of Living Reality

    Choosing where to lay down your roots is a journey that transcends mere geography; it’s a financial saga that can shape the rest of your life. Where you may have grown up may not be the place you raise your own family. Times change, and the economics of a given region may not be sustainable…

  • Who Owns the Pond?

    Who Owns the Pond?

    A popular saying is that “If you teach a man to fish, you will feed him for a lifetime.” Yes, teaching others to fish is undoubtedly a noble pursuit, one that aligns with our Christian values of generosity and care for our fellow human beings. However, it’s equally important to reflect on who owns the pond.…

  • Fed Up

    Fed Up

    Are you fed up with your current financial journey and with letting the experts guide your personal financial decisions? In 2007, as the economy started to show signs of strain, Bernanke stated that there was no bubble to burst and that the subprime mortgage issue would not have a significant impact on the overall economy. However, just a…

  • Are You Expanding or Maintaining?

    Are You Expanding or Maintaining?

    As Christian fathers, we are called to be good stewards of our resources, including our finances. In our journey to fulfill this responsibility, it’s essential to evaluate whether we are merely maintaining our financial position or actively expanding. While it may seem daunting, even small steps can set us on a path towards growth. I…
