Beyond Sunday Mornings: Putting Your Faith into Everyday Financial Actions

I'm back with another Faithfully Engaged episode, and this one is packed with practical wisdom. I had the pleasure of chatting with Ralph Estep Jr., a financial advisor and fellow podcaster who brings a refreshing Christian perspective to managing your money. In this conversation, Ralph shares his journey to launching a daily podcast and integrating his faith into his business. We dive into big topics like standing courageously in your beliefs, bringing truth even when it's uncomfortable, and living out your Christianity beyond Sunday mornings. Ralph offers convicting thoughts on the loneliness epidemic and why you need Christian community, especially after COVID shook up church attendance. We also chat about raising kids to stand for truth, avoiding spiritual complacency, and putting your faith into everyday actions. Sprinkled throughout are Ralph's best tips for getting your financial house in order, including budgeting, saving, and giving back.
