Love, Money, and God’s Design for Unity · Becoming Financially Confident

• 0:37
  Love
• 0:37
  and
• 0:38
  money
• 0:38
  don't
• 0:38
  have
• 0:38
  to
• 0:39
  clash,
• 0:40
  but
• 0:40
  for
• 0:40
  many
• 0:41
  couples,
• 0:41
  they
• 0:42
  do.
• 0:43
  Money
• 0:43
  conversations
• 0:44
  turn
• 0:44
  tense,
• 0:45
  decisions
• 0:46
  feel
• 0:46
  heavy,
• 0:47
  unity
• 0:47
  feels
• 0:48
  fragile.
• 0:49
  And
• 0:49
  before
• 0:49
  you
• 0:50
  realize
• 0:50
  it,
• 0:51
  finances
• 0:51
  start
• 0:52
  pulling
• 0:52
  hearts
• 0:52
  apart
• 0:53
  instead
• 0:54
  of
• 0:54
  drawing
• 0:54
  them
• 0:55
  together.
• 0:56
  Friend.
• 0:56
  God
• 0:57
  never
• 0:57
  designed
• 0:57
  money
• 0:57
  to
• 0:58
  divide
• 0:58
  what
• 0:58
  love
• 0:59
  was
• 0:59
  meant
• 0:59
  to
• 0:59
  unite.
• 1:00
  So
• 1:01
  today
• 1:01
  is
• 1:01
  about
• 1:01
  slowing
• 1:02
  down
• 1:02
  and
• 1:02
  breathing
• 1:03
  and
• 1:04
  remembering
• 1:04
  what
• 1:04
  really
• 1:05
  matters.
• 1:06
  So
• 1:06
  let's
• 1:06
  reset
• 1:07
  the
• 1:07
  heart
• 1:07
  before
• 1:07
  we
• 1:08
  touch
• 1:08
  the
• 1:08
  numbers
• 1:09
  today.
• 1:10
  Here's
• 1:10
  the
• 1:10
  question
• 1:11
  we're
• 1:11
  reflecting
• 1:11
  on
• 1:12
  today.
• 1:13
  What
• 1:13
  is
• 1:13
  God's
• 1:14
  design
• 1:14
  for
• 1:14
  love,
• 1:15
  money
• 1:15
  and
• 1:16
  unity?
• 1:17
  And
• 1:17
  by
• 1:17
  the
• 1:17
  end
• 1:18
  of
• 1:18
  this
• 1:18
  episode,
• 1:18
  you're
• 1:19
  going
• 1:19
  to
• 1:19
  be
• 1:19
  reminded
• 1:20
  of
• 1:20
  a
• 1:20
  few
• 1:20
  things.
• 1:21
  Why
• 1:21
  money
• 1:21
  often
• 1:22
  magnifies
• 1:23
  what's
• 1:23
  already
• 1:23
  there,
• 1:24
  what
• 1:24
  God
• 1:25
  actually
• 1:25
  cares
• 1:25
  about
• 1:26
  more
• 1:26
  than
• 1:26
  budgets,
• 1:27
  and
• 1:28
  how
• 1:28
  unity
• 1:28
  can
• 1:28
  become
• 1:29
  the
• 1:29
  anchor
• 1:30
  for
• 1:30
  every
• 1:30
  financial
• 1:31
  decision
• 1:31
  you
• 1:31
  make.
• 1:32
  It's
• 1:32
  not
• 1:33
  about
• 1:33
  pressure.
• 1:34
  It's
• 1:34
  not
• 1:34
  about
• 1:34
  fixing
• 1:35
  everything.
• 1:36
  It's
• 1:36
  just
• 1:36
  about
• 1:36
  finding
• 1:37
  truth
• 1:38
  and
• 1:38
  finding
• 1:39
  peace.
• 2:01
  Hey,
• 2:01
  friend.
• 2:01
  Ralph
• 2:02
  Estep
• 2:02
  Jr.
• 2:03
  Here.
• 2:03
  Welcome
• 2:03
  to
• 2:04
  Financially
• 2:04
  Confident
• 2:04
  Christian,
• 2:05
  where
• 2:05
  we
• 2:06
  learn
• 2:06
  how
• 2:06
  to
• 2:06
  walk
• 2:06
  through
• 2:07
  life
• 2:07
  and
• 2:07
  money
• 2:08
  with
• 2:08
  wisdom,
• 2:08
  with
• 2:09
  peace,
• 2:10
  and
• 2:10
  with
• 2:10
  a
• 2:10
  heart
• 2:10
  anchored
• 2:11
  in
• 2:11
  God's
• 2:11
  truth.
• 2:12
  My
• 2:12
  mission
• 2:13
  on
• 2:13
  this
• 2:13
  show
• 2:13
  every
• 2:13
  day
• 2:13
  is
• 2:13
  to
• 2:14
  help
• 2:14
  you
• 2:14
  break
• 2:14
  that
• 2:14
  cycle
• 2:15
  of
• 2:15
  financial
• 2:15
  shame
• 2:16
  and
• 2:16
  build
• 2:16
  those
• 2:16
  steady
• 2:17
  habits
• 2:17
  rooted
• 2:17
  in
• 2:18
  faith
• 2:18
  and
• 2:19
  truly
• 2:19
  become
• 2:20
  a
• 2:20
  financially
• 2:21
  confident
• 2:21
  Christian.
• 2:22
  And
• 2:22
  I'm
• 2:22
  really
• 2:23
  glad
• 2:23
  you've
• 2:23
  joined
• 2:23
  me
• 2:23
  again
• 2:24
  today.
• 2:24
  Yesterday
• 2:25
  we
• 2:25
  talked
• 2:25
  about
• 2:26
  setting
• 2:26
  those
• 2:26
  boundaries
• 2:27
  with
• 2:27
  family
• 2:27
  and
• 2:28
  protecting
• 2:28
  your
• 2:28
  wallet
• 2:29
  to
• 2:29
  actually
• 2:30
  protect
• 2:30
  your
• 2:30
  heart.
• 2:31
  And
• 2:31
  today
• 2:32
  we're
• 2:32
  going
• 2:32
  to
• 2:32
  talk
• 2:32
  about
• 2:32
  realignment
• 2:33
  a
• 2:33
  little
• 2:33
  bit
• 2:34
  more.
• 2:34
  And
• 2:34
  today's
• 2:35
  episode
• 2:35
  is
• 2:35
  not
• 2:36
  about
• 2:36
  tactics.
• 2:37
  It's
• 2:37
  more
• 2:37
  about
• 2:38
  foundation.
• 2:39
  So
• 2:39
  I
• 2:39
  want
• 2:39
  you
• 2:40
  to
• 2:40
  breathe
• 2:40
  a
• 2:40
  little
• 2:40
  bit
• 2:41
  and
• 2:41
  reset,
• 2:42
  and
• 2:42
  let's
• 2:42
  just
• 2:42
  sit
• 2:43
  back
• 2:43
  and
• 2:43
  have
• 2:43
  an
• 2:43
  honest
• 2:44
  conversation.
• 2:45
  Let's
• 2:45
  return
• 2:45
  to
• 2:46
  God's
• 2:46
  design
• 2:46
  for
• 2:47
  love,
• 2:47
  money,
• 2:48
  and
• 2:48
  unity.
• 2:50
  Here's
• 2:50
  a
• 2:50
  question
• 2:50
  that
• 2:51
  a
• 2:51
  lot
• 2:51
  of
• 2:51
  couples
• 2:52
  carry,
• 2:52
  Ralph.
• 2:53
  How
• 2:53
  do
• 2:53
  we
• 2:53
  stay
• 2:54
  united
• 2:54
  when
• 2:54
  money
• 2:55
  decisions
• 2:55
  feel
• 2:55
  so
• 2:56
  stressful?
• 2:57
  Or
• 2:57
  maybe
• 2:58
  even
• 2:58
  better,
• 2:58
  how
• 2:59
  do
• 2:59
  we
• 2:59
  keep
• 2:59
  love
• 2:59
  with
• 2:59
  the
• 3:00
  center
• 3:00
  when
• 3:01
  finances
• 3:01
  feel
• 3:02
  so
• 3:02
  overwhelming?
• 3:03
  And
• 3:04
  those
• 3:04
  right
• 3:04
  there,
• 3:04
  those
• 3:05
  are
• 3:05
  sacred,
• 3:05
  they're
• 3:06
  in
• 3:06
  deep
• 3:06
  questions.
• 3:07
  And
• 3:08
  here's
• 3:08
  the
• 3:08
  thing
• 3:08
  I
• 3:08
  want
• 3:08
  you
• 3:08
  to
• 3:08
  hear.
• 3:09
  God
• 3:10
  cares
• 3:10
  deeply
• 3:10
  about
• 3:11
  unity
• 3:11
  in
• 3:11
  your
• 3:12
  relationship.
• 3:13
  And
• 3:13
  if
• 3:14
  money
• 3:14
  has
• 3:14
  exposed
• 3:15
  some
• 3:15
  tension,
• 3:16
  you're
• 3:16
  not
• 3:16
  doing
• 3:17
  marriage
• 3:17
  wrong.
• 3:17
  Let
• 3:17
  me
• 3:17
  tell
• 3:18
  you
• 3:18
  right
• 3:18
  now.
• 3:18
  This
• 3:18
  is
• 3:18
  the
• 3:18
  thing
• 3:18
  I
• 3:19
  hear
• 3:19
  all
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  time
• 3:19
  from
• 3:20
  married
• 3:20
  couples.
• 3:21
  Money
• 3:21
  issues
• 3:23
  cause
• 3:23
  tension,
• 3:25
  but
• 3:25
  you
• 3:25
  got
• 3:25
  to
• 3:25
  have
• 3:25
  that
• 3:26
  core
• 3:26
  unity
• 3:26
  at
• 3:26
  the
• 3:27
  beginning.
• 3:28
  Most
• 3:28
  of
• 3:28
  the
• 3:29
  time
• 3:29
  that
• 3:29
  financial
• 3:29
  stress
• 3:30
  reveals
• 3:31
  differences.
• 3:31
  Now,
• 3:31
  these
• 3:32
  differences
• 3:32
  could
• 3:32
  be
• 3:33
  priorities,
• 3:34
  like
• 3:34
  what
• 3:34
  one
• 3:35
  person
• 3:35
  sees
• 3:35
  as
• 3:35
  important,
• 3:35
  the
• 3:36
  other
• 3:36
  person
• 3:36
  might
• 3:36
  not.
• 3:37
  What
• 3:38
  one
• 3:38
  person
• 3:38
  says
• 3:38
  needs
• 3:39
  for
• 3:39
  security
• 3:40
  and
• 3:40
  another
• 3:40
  person
• 3:41
  doesn't.
• 3:41
  And
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  lot
• 3:41
  of
• 3:42
  times
• 3:42
  it's
• 3:43
  about
• 3:43
  past
• 3:43
  Wounds.
• 3:44
  It
• 3:45
  was
• 3:45
  those
• 3:45
  things
• 3:45
  you
• 3:45
  don't
• 3:46
  want
• 3:46
  to
• 3:46
  talk
• 3:46
  about.
• 3:46
  It
• 3:46
  was
• 3:47
  those
• 3:47
  hurts
• 3:47
  even
• 3:47
  from
• 3:48
  when
• 3:48
  you
• 3:48
  were
• 3:48
  a
• 3:48
  child.
• 3:48
  Or
• 3:49
  maybe
• 3:49
  your
• 3:49
  parents
• 3:50
  didn't
• 3:50
  do
• 3:50
  money
• 3:50
  well,
• 3:51
  or
• 3:51
  maybe
• 3:51
  you
• 3:51
  were
• 3:51
  in
• 3:52
  a
• 3:52
  relationship
• 3:52
  before
• 3:53
  and
• 3:53
  money
• 3:53
  became
• 3:54
  a
• 3:54
  huge
• 3:55
  problem.
• 3:56
  And
• 3:56
  the
• 3:56
  problem
• 3:56
  is
• 3:57
  money
• 3:57
  doesn't
• 3:58
  create
• 3:58
  the
• 3:58
  problems.
• 3:59
  What
• 3:59
  it
• 3:59
  does
• 4:00
  is
• 4:00
  it
• 4:00
  magnifies
• 4:01
  them.
• 4:01
  It's
• 4:01
  like
• 4:01
  taking
• 4:01
  a
• 4:02
  magnifying
• 4:02
  glass
• 4:02
  and
• 4:03
  just
• 4:03
  focusing
• 4:04
  down
• 4:04
  on
• 4:04
  it.
• 4:05
  And
• 4:05
  when
• 4:05
  you
• 4:06
  start
• 4:06
  to
• 4:06
  feel
• 4:06
  that,
• 4:06
  you
• 4:07
  start
• 4:07
  to
• 4:07
  feel
• 4:07
  fear.
• 4:08
  And
• 4:09
  you
• 4:09
  have
• 4:09
  unspoken
• 4:10
  expectations
• 4:11
  and
• 4:11
  unspoken
• 4:12
  assumptions.
• 4:14
  And
• 4:14
  what
• 4:14
  you
• 4:15
  need
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  hear
• 4:15
  right
• 4:15
  now
• 4:15
  is
• 4:15
  it
• 4:15
  doesn't
• 4:16
  mean
• 4:16
  you're
• 4:16
  failing.
• 4:17
  It
• 4:18
  just
• 4:18
  means
• 4:18
  maybe
• 4:18
  this
• 4:18
  is
• 4:19
  the
• 4:19
  time
• 4:19
  where
• 4:19
  you
• 4:19
  got
• 4:19
  to
• 4:19
  invite
• 4:20
  God
• 4:21
  in
• 4:21
  a
• 4:21
  little
• 4:21
  deeper
• 4:22
  to
• 4:22
  find
• 4:22
  that
• 4:23
  alignment.
• 4:24
  Because
• 4:24
  here's
• 4:25
  an
• 4:25
  important
• 4:25
  truth.
• 4:26
  Money
• 4:26
  doesn't
• 4:27
  unite
• 4:27
  or
• 4:28
  divide
• 4:28
  on
• 4:28
  its
• 4:29
  own.
• 4:29
  It's
• 4:29
  just
• 4:29
  a
• 4:29
  tool.
• 4:30
  But
• 4:30
  here's
• 4:30
  the
• 4:30
  problem.
• 4:31
  What
• 4:31
  it
• 4:31
  does
• 4:31
  do,
• 4:31
  it
• 4:32
  amplifies
• 4:33
  what
• 4:33
  already
• 4:33
  exists.
• 4:34
  If
• 4:34
  you're
• 4:34
  living
• 4:34
  in
• 4:35
  fear,
• 4:35
  if
• 4:35
  you're
• 4:35
  living
• 4:36
  in
• 4:36
  pressure,
• 4:36
  if
• 4:37
  you're
• 4:37
  living
• 4:37
  in
• 4:37
  resentment,
• 4:39
  it
• 4:39
  just
• 4:40
  magnifies
• 4:40
  that.
• 4:41
  And
• 4:42
  when
• 4:42
  couples
• 4:42
  are
• 4:42
  aligned,
• 4:43
  and
• 4:43
  I've.
• 4:43
  Listen,
• 4:43
  I've
• 4:44
  met
• 4:44
  couples
• 4:44
  that
• 4:44
  are
• 4:44
  aligned,
• 4:45
  money
• 4:46
  becomes
• 4:46
  a
• 4:46
  tool
• 4:46
  to
• 4:46
  get
• 4:47
  them
• 4:47
  where
• 4:47
  they're
• 4:47
  going.
• 4:48
  But
• 4:48
  when
• 4:49
  you're
• 4:49
  disconnected,
• 4:50
  money
• 4:51
  becomes
• 4:51
  a
• 4:51
  trigger.
• 4:51
  It
• 4:52
  becomes
• 4:52
  a
• 4:52
  trigger,
• 4:52
  like,
• 4:52
  here's
• 4:52
  what
• 4:53
  we're
• 4:53
  going
• 4:53
  to
• 4:53
  fight
• 4:53
  about
• 4:53
  today,
• 4:54
  because
• 4:55
  it
• 4:55
  triggers
• 4:55
  something
• 4:56
  deep
• 4:56
  inside
• 4:56
  you.
• 4:58
  And
• 4:58
  hear
• 4:58
  me
• 4:58
  on
• 4:59
  this.
• 4:59
  God's
• 4:59
  design
• 5:00
  isn't
• 5:00
  perfect
• 5:01
  finances.
• 5:02
  It's
• 5:02
  just
• 5:03
  having
• 5:03
  a
• 5:03
  shared
• 5:03
  direction.
• 5:05
  So
• 5:05
  let's
• 5:05
  talk
• 5:05
  about
• 5:05
  direction
• 5:06
  today.
• 5:06
  Let's
• 5:06
  talk
• 5:06
  about
• 5:07
  what
• 5:07
  unity
• 5:07
  really
• 5:08
  is.
• 5:09
  Because
• 5:09
  I've
• 5:10
  walked
• 5:10
  with
• 5:10
  many
• 5:10
  couples
• 5:11
  through
• 5:11
  every
• 5:12
  money
• 5:12
  season
• 5:12
  you
• 5:13
  can
• 5:13
  imagine.
• 5:14
  I've
• 5:14
  seen
• 5:14
  couples
• 5:14
  that
• 5:15
  lived
• 5:15
  in
• 5:15
  abundance.
• 5:15
  I
• 5:15
  mean,
• 5:16
  I'm
• 5:16
  talking.
• 5:16
  They
• 5:16
  had.
• 5:16
  They
• 5:17
  had
• 5:17
  it
• 5:17
  all
• 5:17
  figured
• 5:17
  out.
• 5:18
  They
• 5:18
  were
• 5:18
  in
• 5:18
  great
• 5:19
  shape.
• 5:19
  You
• 5:19
  think,
• 5:19
  oh,
• 5:20
  they
• 5:20
  got
• 5:20
  it
• 5:20
  all
• 5:20
  together.
• 5:21
  Not
• 5:21
  necessarily.
• 5:22
  I've
• 5:22
  seen
• 5:23
  couples
• 5:23
  in
• 5:23
  scarcity
• 5:24
  where
• 5:24
  things
• 5:24
  are
• 5:25
  really
• 5:25
  tight.
• 5:25
  And
• 5:25
  let
• 5:25
  me
• 5:26
  tell
• 5:26
  you
• 5:26
  right
• 5:26
  now,
• 5:26
  those
• 5:26
  were
• 5:27
  some
• 5:27
  of
• 5:27
  the
• 5:27
  strongest
• 5:28
  relationship
• 5:28
  I've
• 5:29
  ever
• 5:29
  seen
• 5:29
  because
• 5:29
  they
• 5:29
  had
• 5:30
  a
• 5:30
  shared
• 5:30
  direction.
• 5:31
  I've
• 5:32
  seen
• 5:32
  couples
• 5:32
  in
• 5:32
  recovery.
• 5:33
  I've
• 5:33
  seen
• 5:33
  couples
• 5:33
  in
• 5:34
  rebuilding.
• 5:35
  And
• 5:35
  a
• 5:35
  lot
• 5:36
  of
• 5:36
  times,
• 5:36
  a
• 5:36
  lot
• 5:36
  of
• 5:36
  people
• 5:36
  say,
• 5:37
  well,
• 5:37
  if
• 5:37
  their
• 5:37
  income
• 5:37
  is
• 5:38
  good,
• 5:38
  they
• 5:38
  don't
• 5:38
  worry
• 5:38
  about
• 5:39
  that.
• 5:40
  But
• 5:40
  income
• 5:40
  isn't
• 5:41
  the
• 5:41
  biggest
• 5:41
  strength.
• 5:41
  Hear
• 5:42
  me
• 5:42
  on
• 5:42
  this.
• 5:44
  Strength
• 5:44
  shows
• 5:44
  up
• 5:45
  when
• 5:45
  unity
• 5:45
  is
• 5:45
  chosen.
• 5:46
  On
• 5:46
  those
• 5:46
  hard
• 5:47
  days.
• 5:48
  See,
• 5:48
  unity
• 5:48
  when
• 5:49
  things
• 5:49
  are
• 5:49
  going
• 5:49
  great
• 5:50
  is
• 5:50
  not
• 5:50
  hard.
• 5:51
  Unity.
• 5:52
  On
• 5:52
  those
• 5:52
  tough
• 5:52
  days,
• 5:52
  when
• 5:53
  you're
• 5:53
  living
• 5:53
  in
• 5:53
  that
• 5:53
  scarcity,
• 5:55
  that's
• 5:56
  when,
• 5:56
  as
• 5:56
  they
• 5:56
  say,
• 5:57
  the
• 5:57
  rubber
• 5:57
  meets
• 5:57
  the
• 5:57
  road.
• 5:58
  But
• 5:58
  see,
• 5:59
  here's
• 5:59
  the
• 5:59
  thing.
• 5:59
  You
• 5:59
  need
• 5:59
  to
• 5:59
  understand
• 6:00
  unity
• 6:00
  is
• 6:01
  a
• 6:01
  decision.
• 6:02
  It's
• 6:02
  not
• 6:02
  a
• 6:03
  feeling.
• 6:03
  I'm
• 6:03
  going
• 6:03
  to
• 6:03
  lay
• 6:04
  a
• 6:04
  little
• 6:04
  Ralphism
• 6:04
  on
• 6:05
  you
• 6:05
  here
• 6:05
  right
• 6:05
  now.
• 6:06
  People
• 6:06
  ask
• 6:06
  me,
• 6:06
  what's
• 6:07
  marriage
• 6:07
  all
• 6:07
  about?
• 6:08
  Marriage
• 6:08
  is
• 6:08
  about
• 6:09
  making
• 6:09
  a
• 6:09
  decision
• 6:10
  every
• 6:10
  day.
• 6:10
  Notice
• 6:11
  I
• 6:11
  said
• 6:11
  decision
• 6:12
  to
• 6:12
  put
• 6:13
  someone
• 6:13
  above
• 6:14
  yourself.
• 6:15
  See,
• 6:15
  that's
• 6:15
  not
• 6:15
  a
• 6:15
  feeling.
• 6:16
  It's,
• 6:16
  oh,
• 6:16
  I
• 6:16
  feel
• 6:17
  loved
• 6:17
  today.
• 6:18
  See,
• 6:18
  the
• 6:19
  strongest
• 6:19
  couples
• 6:19
  weren't
• 6:20
  the
• 6:20
  ones
• 6:20
  with
• 6:20
  the
• 6:20
  biggest
• 6:21
  incomes.
• 6:21
  They
• 6:22
  were
• 6:22
  the
• 6:22
  ones
• 6:22
  who
• 6:22
  kept
• 6:23
  choosing,
• 6:24
  making
• 6:24
  that
• 6:25
  decision.
• 6:26
  Unity
• 6:26
  over
• 6:27
  separation.
• 6:29
  Let
• 6:29
  me
• 6:29
  share
• 6:29
  a
• 6:29
  picture
• 6:30
  that
• 6:30
  stuck
• 6:30
  with
• 6:30
  me.
• 6:32
  I
• 6:32
  once
• 6:32
  worked
• 6:32
  with
• 6:32
  a
• 6:32
  couple.
• 6:33
  Their
• 6:33
  finances
• 6:33
  were
• 6:34
  not
• 6:34
  perfect.
• 6:35
  They
• 6:35
  struggled.
• 6:36
  They
• 6:36
  both
• 6:37
  had
• 6:37
  issues.
• 6:38
  One
• 6:38
  was
• 6:38
  a
• 6:38
  saver,
• 6:39
  one
• 6:39
  was
• 6:39
  a
• 6:40
  spender.
• 6:40
  They
• 6:41
  weren't
• 6:41
  perfect.
• 6:42
  But
• 6:42
  you
• 6:42
  know
• 6:42
  what
• 6:42
  they
• 6:43
  did
• 6:43
  first
• 6:43
  before
• 6:43
  they
• 6:43
  did
• 6:44
  anything
• 6:44
  else?
• 6:45
  Their
• 6:45
  first
• 6:46
  move
• 6:46
  was
• 6:46
  to
• 6:46
  pray
• 6:47
  together.
• 6:48
  Yeah.
• 6:48
  Was
• 6:48
  there
• 6:49
  still
• 6:49
  stress?
• 6:49
  Of
• 6:49
  course
• 6:50
  there
• 6:50
  was
• 6:50
  still
• 6:50
  stress.
• 6:51
  They
• 6:51
  still
• 6:51
  had
• 6:52
  issues
• 6:52
  with
• 6:52
  bills
• 6:53
  and
• 6:53
  debt
• 6:53
  and
• 6:53
  all
• 6:54
  these
• 6:54
  kind
• 6:54
  of
• 6:54
  things
• 6:54
  they
• 6:54
  brought
• 6:54
  with
• 6:55
  them.
• 6:55
  They
• 6:55
  brought
• 6:55
  themselves
• 6:56
  from
• 6:56
  their
• 6:56
  childhood,
• 6:57
  even.
• 6:58
  One
• 6:58
  had
• 6:58
  parents
• 6:58
  that
• 6:59
  were
• 6:59
  always
• 6:59
  having
• 6:59
  the
• 6:59
  electric
• 7:00
  turned
• 7:00
  off.
• 7:00
  And
• 7:00
  the
• 7:00
  other
• 7:00
  one
• 7:01
  came
• 7:01
  from
• 7:01
  a
• 7:01
  place
• 7:01
  of
• 7:02
  abundance.
• 7:04
  Peace
• 7:04
  was
• 7:05
  present
• 7:05
  because
• 7:06
  they
• 7:06
  took
• 7:06
  it
• 7:06
  to
• 7:06
  God
• 7:07
  first.
• 7:08
  See,
• 7:09
  their
• 7:09
  first
• 7:09
  response
• 7:09
  wasn't
• 7:10
  to
• 7:10
  control
• 7:10
  each
• 7:11
  other.
• 7:11
  It
• 7:11
  was
• 7:12
  to
• 7:12
  find
• 7:12
  that
• 7:12
  connection,
• 7:13
  to
• 7:13
  find
• 7:14
  that
• 7:14
  unity.
• 7:15
  And
• 7:15
  it
• 7:15
  was
• 7:15
  in
• 7:15
  that
• 7:16
  connection
• 7:16
  that
• 7:17
  they
• 7:17
  found
• 7:18
  peace.
• 7:19
  See,
• 7:19
  so
• 7:19
  here's
• 7:20
  today's
• 7:20
  central
• 7:20
  question.
• 7:21
  And
• 7:21
  you've
• 7:22
  got
• 7:22
  to
• 7:22
  really
• 7:22
  ask
• 7:23
  yourself,
• 7:23
  if
• 7:23
  you're
• 7:24
  in
• 7:24
  a
• 7:24
  relationship
• 7:24
  right
• 7:24
  now,
• 7:25
  stop
• 7:25
  what
• 7:25
  you're
• 7:26
  doing
• 7:26
  and
• 7:26
  really
• 7:26
  lean
• 7:27
  into
• 7:27
  this
• 7:27
  question.
• 7:28
  Who
• 7:28
  Are
• 7:28
  your
• 7:28
  financial
• 7:29
  decisions
• 7:29
  pulling
• 7:30
  you
• 7:30
  closer
• 7:30
  together
• 7:31
  or
• 7:31
  are
• 7:31
  they
• 7:31
  quietly
• 7:32
  pushing
• 7:32
  you
• 7:32
  apart?
• 7:33
  Now,
• 7:34
  I
• 7:34
  don't
• 7:34
  say
• 7:34
  that
• 7:34
  to
• 7:35
  you
• 7:35
  to
• 7:35
  put
• 7:35
  you
• 7:35
  in
• 7:36
  some
• 7:36
  sense
• 7:36
  of
• 7:36
  guilt.
• 7:37
  I
• 7:38
  just
• 7:38
  want
• 7:38
  you
• 7:38
  to
• 7:38
  have
• 7:39
  awareness
• 7:40
  about
• 7:40
  where
• 7:40
  you
• 7:41
  are.
• 7:42
  So
• 7:42
  let's
• 7:42
  walk
• 7:42
  through
• 7:43
  this.
• 7:43
  And
• 7:44
  like
• 7:44
  I
• 7:44
  said,
• 7:44
  this
• 7:44
  is
• 7:45
  less
• 7:45
  about
• 7:45
  strategy
• 7:46
  today
• 7:46
  and
• 7:46
  it's
• 7:47
  more
• 7:47
  about
• 7:47
  alignment.
• 7:47
  I'm
• 7:47
  not
• 7:48
  going
• 7:48
  to
• 7:48
  give
• 7:48
  you
• 7:48
  a
• 7:48
  list
• 7:48
  of
• 7:48
  do
• 7:49
  this,
• 7:49
  this
• 7:49
  and
• 7:49
  this.
• 7:50
  It's
• 7:50
  all
• 7:51
  about
• 7:51
  alignment
• 7:52
  today.
• 7:53
  God's
• 7:53
  design
• 7:54
  has
• 7:54
  always
• 7:55
  been
• 7:55
  unity.
• 7:56
  Now,
• 7:56
  I'm
• 7:56
  not
• 7:57
  talking
• 7:57
  about
• 7:57
  sameness,
• 7:58
  not
• 7:58
  talking
• 7:58
  about
• 7:59
  controlling
• 7:59
  one
• 7:59
  another,
• 8:00
  but
• 8:00
  unity.
• 8:01
  And
• 8:01
  unity
• 8:02
  doesn't
• 8:02
  erase
• 8:03
  differences.
• 8:03
  It
• 8:04
  just
• 8:04
  guides
• 8:05
  them.
• 8:06
  See,
• 8:06
  unity
• 8:06
  means
• 8:07
  having
• 8:07
  a
• 8:07
  shared
• 8:07
  direction,
• 8:08
  a
• 8:08
  shared
• 8:09
  path.
• 8:09
  Even
• 8:10
  when
• 8:10
  your
• 8:10
  perspectives
• 8:11
  differ,
• 8:12
  unity
• 8:13
  isn't
• 8:13
  about
• 8:13
  identical
• 8:14
  opinions.
• 8:14
  You
• 8:15
  know,
• 8:15
  you're
• 8:15
  not
• 8:15
  looking
• 8:15
  for
• 8:15
  somebody
• 8:16
  that's
• 8:16
  going
• 8:16
  to
• 8:16
  match
• 8:16
  exactly
• 8:17
  what
• 8:17
  they
• 8:17
  say
• 8:17
  most
• 8:18
  opposites
• 8:18
  attract,
• 8:19
  Right?
• 8:20
  But
• 8:20
  unity
• 8:20
  is
• 8:21
  choosing
• 8:21
  us.
• 8:22
  And
• 8:22
  that's
• 8:22
  really
• 8:22
  the
• 8:22
  key
• 8:23
  today.
• 8:23
  Choosing
• 8:24
  us
• 8:25
  before
• 8:25
  choosing
• 8:26
  me
• 8:26
  and
• 8:26
  before
• 8:26
  choosing
• 8:27
  control.
• 8:28
  And
• 8:28
  see,
• 8:29
  unity
• 8:29
  sounds
• 8:29
  like
• 8:29
  this.
• 8:30
  Help
• 8:30
  me
• 8:30
  understand
• 8:31
  this,
• 8:31
  Rao.
• 8:32
  Or
• 8:33
  maybe
• 8:33
  to
• 8:33
  your
• 8:33
  spouse,
• 8:34
  hey,
• 8:34
  you
• 8:34
  know
• 8:34
  what?
• 8:34
  We're
• 8:34
  Going
• 8:34
  to
• 8:34
  decide
• 8:35
  this
• 8:35
  together.
• 8:36
  You
• 8:37
  want
• 8:37
  to
• 8:37
  really
• 8:37
  make
• 8:37
  it
• 8:38
  strong.
• 8:39
  We're
• 8:39
  on
• 8:39
  the
• 8:39
  same
• 8:40
  side.
• 8:41
  See,
• 8:42
  unity
• 8:42
  means
• 8:42
  choosing
• 8:43
  us
• 8:43
  before
• 8:43
  choosing
• 8:44
  control.
• 8:46
  And
• 8:46
  money
• 8:46
  doesn't
• 8:47
  change
• 8:47
  people,
• 8:47
  it
• 8:48
  just
• 8:48
  reveals
• 8:49
  them
• 8:50
  in
• 8:50
  reality.
• 8:51
  And
• 8:52
  if
• 8:52
  trust
• 8:52
  is
• 8:52
  present,
• 8:53
  money
• 8:53
  can
• 8:54
  strengthen,
• 8:55
  really
• 8:56
  can.
• 8:56
  But
• 8:57
  if
• 8:57
  fear
• 8:57
  is
• 8:57
  present,
• 8:58
  money's
• 8:58
  just
• 8:59
  going
• 8:59
  to
• 8:59
  expose
• 8:59
  it.
• 8:59
  It's
• 9:00
  going
• 9:00
  to
• 9:00
  be
• 9:00
  like
• 9:00
  tearing
• 9:01
  off
• 9:01
  the
• 9:01
  band
• 9:01
  aid
• 9:01
  and
• 9:01
  the
• 9:02
  wound
• 9:02
  still
• 9:02
  there.
• 9:03
  And
• 9:03
  if
• 9:03
  you're
• 9:04
  feeling
• 9:04
  that
• 9:04
  tension,
• 9:05
  it's
• 9:05
  often
• 9:05
  a
• 9:06
  signal
• 9:06
  that
• 9:06
  we
• 9:06
  need
• 9:06
  to
• 9:07
  get
• 9:07
  back
• 9:07
  to
• 9:07
  unity.
• 9:07
  It's
• 9:07
  not
• 9:08
  a
• 9:08
  verdict
• 9:08
  because
• 9:08
  you
• 9:08
  can
• 9:08
  fix
• 9:09
  this,
• 9:10
  but
• 9:10
  you
• 9:10
  can
• 9:10
  use
• 9:10
  tension
• 9:11
  as
• 9:11
  a
• 9:11
  prompt
• 9:11
  to
• 9:12
  slow
• 9:12
  down
• 9:12
  and
• 9:13
  ask
• 9:13
  a
• 9:13
  better
• 9:14
  question.
• 9:14
  If
• 9:15
  you're
• 9:15
  living
• 9:15
  in
• 9:15
  financial
• 9:16
  tension
• 9:16
  again,
• 9:16
  it's
• 9:17
  a
• 9:17
  signal
• 9:17
  that
• 9:18
  it
• 9:18
  doesn't
• 9:18
  mean
• 9:19
  you
• 9:19
  failed.
• 9:21
  And
• 9:21
  peace
• 9:21
  doesn't
• 9:22
  start
• 9:22
  with
• 9:22
  spreadsheets.
• 9:22
  I
• 9:23
  wish
• 9:23
  I
• 9:23
  could
• 9:23
  tell
• 9:23
  you,
• 9:23
  hey,
• 9:23
  here's
• 9:23
  what
• 9:24
  you
• 9:24
  could
• 9:24
  do.
• 9:24
  Go
• 9:24
  set
• 9:24
  up
• 9:25
  this
• 9:25
  perfect
• 9:25
  budget,
• 9:25
  this
• 9:26
  perfect
• 9:26
  spreadsheet,
• 9:27
  and
• 9:27
  you're
• 9:27
  going
• 9:27
  to
• 9:27
  have
• 9:27
  peace.
• 9:29
  That's
• 9:29
  a
• 9:29
  good
• 9:29
  place
• 9:30
  to
• 9:30
  start.
• 9:31
  But
• 9:31
  I've
• 9:31
  seen
• 9:31
  couples
• 9:32
  chasing
• 9:32
  peace
• 9:32
  through
• 9:33
  budgets
• 9:33
  alone,
• 9:33
  and
• 9:33
  it
• 9:33
  didn't
• 9:34
  work.
• 9:35
  Peace
• 9:36
  starts
• 9:36
  with
• 9:36
  alignment.
• 9:37
  Peace
• 9:37
  starts
• 9:37
  with
• 9:38
  listening
• 9:38
  to
• 9:38
  your
• 9:38
  partner,
• 9:40
  understanding
• 9:40
  their
• 9:40
  fears
• 9:41
  and
• 9:41
  the
• 9:41
  security
• 9:42
  concerns
• 9:42
  they
• 9:42
  have,
• 9:43
  understanding
• 9:43
  what's
• 9:44
  important
• 9:44
  to
• 9:44
  them.
• 9:45
  And
• 9:45
  then
• 9:45
  it's
• 9:45
  all
• 9:45
  about
• 9:45
  getting
• 9:45
  on
• 9:46
  your
• 9:46
  knees
• 9:46
  and
• 9:46
  praying
• 9:46
  to
• 9:47
  God
• 9:47
  for
• 9:47
  that
• 9:47
  unity.
• 9:48
  And
• 9:49
  once
• 9:49
  you
• 9:49
  have
• 9:49
  that
• 9:49
  unity,
• 9:50
  having
• 9:50
  a
• 9:50
  shared
• 9:51
  direction
• 9:52
  and
• 9:52
  asking
• 9:52
  a
• 9:53
  really
• 9:53
  tough
• 9:53
  question,
• 9:53
  are
• 9:54
  we
• 9:54
  still
• 9:54
  moving
• 9:55
  the
• 9:55
  same
• 9:55
  way?
• 9:57
  Because
• 9:57
  when
• 9:57
  you're
• 9:57
  working
• 9:58
  together,
• 9:58
  that
• 9:59
  unity,
• 9:59
  it
• 9:59
  leads
• 10:00
  to
• 10:00
  decisions
• 10:01
  feeling
• 10:01
  lighter.
• 10:02
  Now,
• 10:02
  I'm
• 10:02
  not
• 10:02
  saying
• 10:02
  it's
• 10:03
  easy,
• 10:04
  but
• 10:04
  just
• 10:05
  shared
• 10:07
  and
• 10:07
  that
• 10:07
  unity
• 10:07
  leads.
• 10:08
  Decisions
• 10:08
  feel
• 10:09
  lighter
• 10:09
  because
• 10:09
  they
• 10:10
  are
• 10:10
  shared.
• 10:11
  And
• 10:11
  you
• 10:12
  don't
• 10:12
  need
• 10:12
  to
• 10:12
  agree
• 10:12
  on
• 10:12
  every
• 10:12
  dollar.
• 10:13
  Listen,
• 10:13
  you're
• 10:13
  going
• 10:13
  to
• 10:13
  have
• 10:14
  disagreements,
• 10:15
  but
• 10:15
  what
• 10:16
  you
• 10:16
  have
• 10:16
  to
• 10:16
  agree
• 10:16
  on
• 10:17
  is
• 10:17
  what
• 10:17
  matters
• 10:17
  most.
• 10:19
  Shared
• 10:19
  value,
• 10:20
  shared
• 10:20
  movement.
• 10:21
  Shared
• 10:22
  movement
• 10:22
  equals
• 10:23
  peace.
• 10:24
  For
• 10:24
  a
• 10:24
  lot
• 10:24
  of
• 10:24
  people,
• 10:25
  it
• 10:25
  means
• 10:25
  stability.
• 10:26
  I'm
• 10:26
  not
• 10:26
  worried
• 10:27
  about
• 10:27
  where
• 10:27
  our
• 10:27
  next
• 10:27
  dollars
• 10:28
  come
• 10:28
  from.
• 10:28
  We've
• 10:28
  put
• 10:28
  money
• 10:29
  into
• 10:29
  savings,
• 10:29
  we've
• 10:30
  built
• 10:30
  that
• 10:30
  emergency
• 10:31
  fund.
• 10:31
  We're
• 10:31
  not
• 10:31
  getting
• 10:31
  ourselves
• 10:32
  in
• 10:32
  debt.
• 10:33
  Maybe
• 10:33
  for
• 10:33
  you
• 10:33
  it's
• 10:34
  a
• 10:34
  generosity.
• 10:34
  You
• 10:35
  want
• 10:35
  to
• 10:35
  be
• 10:35
  generous.
• 10:35
  You're
• 10:36
  lowering
• 10:36
  that
• 10:36
  stress
• 10:37
  level
• 10:37
  and
• 10:37
  you're
• 10:38
  honing
• 10:38
  God
• 10:39
  and
• 10:39
  you're
• 10:39
  protecting
• 10:40
  the
• 10:40
  marriage.
• 10:42
  That
• 10:42
  one
• 10:42
  vision
• 10:43
  matters
• 10:43
  more
• 10:43
  than
• 10:43
  the
• 10:44
  peace
• 10:44
  agreement
• 10:45
  because
• 10:45
  God's
• 10:46
  definition
• 10:46
  of
• 10:46
  wealth
• 10:47
  is
• 10:47
  deeper
• 10:48
  than
• 10:48
  provision.
• 10:49
  Think
• 10:49
  about
• 10:49
  this
• 10:49
  for
• 10:49
  a
• 10:49
  second.
• 10:50
  A
• 10:50
  lot
• 10:50
  of
• 10:50
  people
• 10:50
  say,
• 10:51
  well,
• 10:51
  we're
• 10:51
  not
• 10:52
  wealthy
• 10:52
  by
• 10:52
  worldly
• 10:53
  standards,
• 10:55
  but
• 10:55
  God's
• 10:55
  wealth
• 10:56
  includes
• 10:56
  peace.
• 10:57
  Peace
• 10:58
  in
• 10:58
  having
• 10:58
  a
• 10:58
  conversation,
• 10:59
  peace
• 11:00
  in
• 11:00
  a
• 11:00
  direction,
• 11:01
  and
• 11:01
  peace
• 11:01
  in
• 11:02
  walking
• 11:02
  forward
• 11:03
  together.
• 11:04
  And
• 11:04
  that
• 11:05
  peace
• 11:05
  can
• 11:05
  exist
• 11:05
  even
• 11:06
  when
• 11:06
  the
• 11:06
  numbers
• 11:06
  aren't
• 11:07
  perfect.
• 11:07
  I've
• 11:07
  seen
• 11:07
  it
• 11:07
  in
• 11:07
  my
• 11:07
  own
• 11:08
  life.
• 11:09
  Because
• 11:09
  peace
• 11:10
  outlasts
• 11:10
  income
• 11:11
  changes
• 11:11
  and
• 11:12
  no
• 11:12
  surprise
• 11:13
  bills.
• 11:15
  True
• 11:15
  wealth
• 11:16
  is
• 11:16
  peace
• 11:17
  in
• 11:17
  Christ
• 11:18
  together.
• 11:19
  Which
• 11:19
  leads
• 11:19
  us
• 11:20
  to
• 11:20
  today's
• 11:20
  bible
• 11:20
  verse,
• 11:21
  Colossians
• 11:21
  3:14
• 11:22
  says,
• 11:23
  and
• 11:23
  over
• 11:23
  all
• 11:24
  these
• 11:24
  virtues,
• 11:24
  put
• 11:25
  on
• 11:25
  love,
• 11:26
  which
• 11:26
  binds
• 11:27
  them
• 11:27
  all
• 11:27
  together
• 11:28
  in
• 11:28
  perfect
• 11:28
  unity.
• 11:29
  What
• 11:29
  does
• 11:29
  it
• 11:29
  say
• 11:29
  here?
• 11:31
  Love.
• 11:31
  Perfect
• 11:32
  unity.
• 11:33
  See,
• 11:33
  friend,
• 11:34
  love
• 11:34
  is
• 11:34
  the
• 11:34
  binder.
• 11:35
  It's
• 11:36
  not
• 11:36
  money,
• 11:36
  it's
• 11:37
  not
• 11:37
  plans,
• 11:38
  it's
• 11:38
  not
• 11:38
  control.
• 11:39
  Love
• 11:39
  holds
• 11:40
  it
• 11:40
  together.
• 11:41
  That
• 11:41
  comes
• 11:42
  down
• 11:42
  to
• 11:42
  the
• 11:42
  tone
• 11:42
  of
• 11:42
  the
• 11:43
  conversations
• 11:43
  you're
• 11:43
  having,
• 11:44
  the
• 11:44
  posture
• 11:45
  when
• 11:45
  you
• 11:45
  have
• 11:45
  a
• 11:45
  disagreement,
• 11:46
  and
• 11:46
  the
• 11:47
  willingness
• 11:47
  to
• 11:47
  listen.
• 11:49
  And
• 11:49
  that
• 11:49
  love
• 11:49
  protects
• 11:50
  unity
• 11:50
  while
• 11:50
  you
• 11:51
  work
• 11:51
  on
• 11:51
  the
• 11:51
  numbers.
• 11:51
  And
• 11:52
  yes,
• 11:52
  you
• 11:52
  might
• 11:52
  have
• 11:52
  to
• 11:52
  work
• 11:52
  on
• 11:53
  it,
• 11:53
  but
• 11:53
  love
• 11:54
  holds
• 11:54
  it
• 11:54
  all
• 11:54
  together.
• 11:56
  So
• 11:56
  here's
• 11:56
  your
• 11:56
  simple
• 11:56
  step
• 11:57
  for
• 11:57
  today.
• 11:57
  I
• 11:57
  want
• 11:57
  you
• 11:57
  to
• 11:58
  do
• 11:58
  nothing
• 11:58
  else
• 11:58
  than
• 11:58
  just
• 11:59
  pray
• 11:59
  together.
• 12:00
  Just
• 12:00
  sit
• 12:00
  down
• 12:01
  just
• 12:01
  one
• 12:01
  time
• 12:01
  and
• 12:02
  pray
• 12:02
  together.
• 12:02
  It
• 12:02
  doesn't
• 12:03
  have
• 12:03
  to
• 12:03
  be
• 12:03
  some
• 12:03
  long
• 12:04
  convoluted
• 12:04
  prayer.
• 12:04
  It
• 12:05
  could
• 12:05
  be
• 12:05
  something
• 12:05
  as
• 12:05
  simple
• 12:05
  as
• 12:05
  lord,
• 12:06
  put
• 12:06
  us
• 12:06
  on
• 12:06
  the
• 12:06
  same
• 12:07
  page.
• 12:07
  It
• 12:08
  doesn't
• 12:08
  need
• 12:08
  to
• 12:08
  be
• 12:08
  polished.
• 12:10
  Just
• 12:10
  ask

• 12:36
  Lord,

  always

  and
• 12:56
  from
• 12:56
  confusion
• 12:57
  to

  It's

  not
• 12:58
  about
• 12:58
  condemnation.
• 12:59
  It's
• 12:59
  not
