Full Show | Walk Forward not Backwards; Money Mondays with Jini Thornton; Love Talk: Tracking Your Love; and More

Faith, finances, and relationships come together in a powerful reminder to grow with wisdom instead of fear. Erica Campbell’s Faith Walk urges believers to stop romanticizing the past, stay open to new information, and use modern tools—including social media and technology—to reach the next generation; ministry leaders likewise point to technology, shared leadership, and authentic participation as effective ways to connect with Gen Z. Money expert Jini Thornton then tells parents to protect their own retirement before stretching their savings to cover college, because there is no financial aid for retirement, while encouraging families to reuse what they already own, set firm budgets, comparison-shop, and treat student loans as a last resort.  That financial guidance aligns with consumer recommendations to pursue grants, scholarships, and federal aid before private loans. In Love Talk, Erica challenges couples to stop tracking phones and searching for proof of wrongdoing, arguing that fear-driven surveillance cannot replace honest questions, prayer, and conversations about trust and disconnection. Relationship guidance similarly emphasizes mutually agreed privacy boundaries, open communication, and personal space rather than demanding passwords or monitoring every move—a fitting close to an episode about moving forward with faith, planning, and healthier connection.  Website: https://www.urban1podcasts.com/get-up-mornings-erica-campbell See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
