When God tells you to SPEND more

from SeedTime with Bob and Linda Lotich

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.   Resources Mentioned: Simple Money, Rich Life (our book — get a free copy here: http://seedtime.com/free) NeeDoh Stress Cubes (yes, our new team obsession 😂) → https://www.schylling.com/brand/needoh/ SeedTime Courses & Community   👉Share this with someone who needs the reminder that obedience always outweighs "responsible" stewardship.   Watch this episode on our SeedTime Money Podcast YouTube channel (https://youtu.be/Z5pHkOGfcco)!   BONUS: Ever dreamt of hanging out with us for 6 weeks in your small group or church?
