Use This Unfair Advantage for Stress-Free Christian Finances ft. Bob Lotich

Money is such a contentious issue. In the world at large, but specifically within the Christian community. The love of money is the root of all evil...but does that mean making money is wrong? Do I really need to tithe 10%? Is budgeting a lack of trust in God? There's a million questions that end up becoming quite theological, and it can be tough to find God's peace in the whole conversation. That's why we brought on Bob Lotich, from Seed Time, to give us an overview from his experience and perspective as a Christian financial expert, on how families can think about money from a Christian perspective and not get totally overwhelmed in the process.
