The most dangerous financial trap isn't overspending. It's comfortable compromise.
After years of telling ourselves "I'll give more when I get my next raise," we discovered a profound truth: Without a system, good intentions evaporate into lifestyle inflation. But through this simple rule, we found a way to increase both our giving AND our financial freedom—without feeling the sacrifice.
In this episode, we share:
The "50-50 Rule" that transformed our approach to raises and windfalls
Why financial "peace" might actually be sabotaging your spiritual growth
The fascinating story of 3rd century Christians who fled to the woods when they got wealthy (and what it teaches us about modern abundance)
How we're implementing a radical month-long sabbatical for our entire team
This isn't just another money management strategy. It's a practical framework for breaking free from the gravitational pull of cultural norms around wealth—while still enjoying the fruits of your labor.
Whether you're living paycheck-to-paycheck or already practicing generosity, this simple rule could be the key to unlocking both greater impact and personal benefit.

Have you ever noticed that no matter how much money you make, it never seems to be enough?
We're tackling the most stubborn financial habit we've ever encountered: discontentment. Even John Rockefeller, one of history's wealthiest individuals, famously said he needed "just a little bit more" when asked how much money was enough.
In this episode, we reveal:
Why having "just a little more" never satisfies (and what to do instead)
The shocking truth about how you're already richer than John Rockefeller in ways you've never considered
How Instagram and social media are secretly destroying your financial contentment
The counterintuitive "no muscle" technique that transforms your relationship with money
A practical framework for giving that's helped us stay grounded while working toward giving away $1 million
But here's what makes this episode different: Instead of just telling you to "be more grateful," we're sharing the exact systems we've used to break free from the endless cycle of wanting more – whether you make $30,000 or $3 million a year.
We also dive deep into practical strategies like:
Why deleting certain apps might be the key to financial peace
How to set up "contentment benchmarks" that actually work
The biblical wisdom behind avoiding both poverty and excess wealth
A simple gratitude practice that rewires your brain's relationship with money
Key Quote: "Whoever loves money never has enough, whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with their income." - Ecclesiastes 5:10

20 years ago, I read a single book that transformed how I think about money forever. Inside was a 2-word phrase that has driven nearly every financial decision I've made since.
Here's the truth: Most people make financial decisions based on immediate gratification. They buy new cars, upgrade their gadgets, and focus on short-term pleasure while neglecting long-term wealth building. But the wealthy think differently.
🔎In this episode, we reveal:
The powerful mindset shift that changed everything for us
Why my millionaire mentor drove a 10-year-old car (while I had a brand new one)
The truth about what really counts as a "luxury"
The biblical wisdom behind building wealth slowly and strategically
Why most people's "waiting to save" strategy never works
The exact method we use to fund our biggest dreams (like our future beach house ministry)
This isn't just about making money—it's about building a foundation for Kingdom impact. If you're tired of living paycheck to paycheck and ready to think differently about wealth, this episode is for you.
