Watch Andy's message \"God Is the Owner. We Are the Stewards.\" first: https://youtu.be/kVpq5krVZs4\nIn Episode 6 of Stronger, Ariel Amaro sits down with Andy and Stacie Wood the week Andy taught on stewardship from Matthew 25, and they get specific: the Mac laptop Andy carried home from CompUSA on zero-down financing, the calculator Stacie took down the grocery aisle, the kitchen table conversation that made Andy own their finances, why money is the last thing most of us surrender to God, the gift Andy felt prompted to give before he'd talked to Stacie, Stacie's $100 birthday money, whether the church is after your money, the 10-10-80 plan and the debt snowball, the year their student loan disappeared, the righteous rich and the righteous poor, how to start out when the cost of living is this high, and a lightning round on credit cards, joint accounts, used cars, and how much you can spend before you tell your spouse.\nNewly married, carrying debt, carrying the budget alone, or doing everything right and still waiting on God to come through, this one is for you.\nONE THING TO DO THIS WEEK\nFind out where your money actually went last month. Every dollar. Then sit down with your spouse, or a friend who'll be honest with you, and pick one next step: the 10-10-80 plan, the first debt in the snowball, or Financial Peace at your campus. And start tomorrow the way Andy does: \"Today, Lord, you have my yes.\"\nRESOURCES MENTIONED\nFinancial Peace University at Saddleback: https://saddleback.com/events?campus=0&q=FPU&categoryIds=&tags=\nEstate and trust planning at Saddleback:...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/C-eg33Wmu_-0sjRGC2o2d-SFUApNY7WinuLqxMK7ukE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS83MmU2/ODAyZWZkNDg4NmM4/NGY2MDkwM2EwYzdj/NTUwYi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
