Why Isn’t Your Worth Found in Your Wallet? · Becoming Financially Confident

• 0:37
  Money
• 0:37
  has
• 0:38
  a
• 0:38
  quiet
• 0:38
  way
• 0:38
  of
• 0:38
  talking
• 0:39
  to
• 0:39
  you,
• 0:39
  doesn't
• 0:39
  it?
• 0:40
  It's
• 0:40
  not
• 0:40
  out
• 0:41
  loud,
• 0:41
  it's
• 0:41
  not
• 0:41
  direct.
• 0:42
  But
• 0:42
  through
• 0:43
  the
• 0:43
  numbers,
• 0:44
  through
• 0:44
  those
• 0:44
  balances,
• 0:45
  through
• 0:45
  the
• 0:45
  statements,
• 0:46
  through
• 0:46
  those
• 0:46
  constant
• 0:47
  notifications,
• 0:49
  and
• 0:49
  they
• 0:49
  send
• 0:49
  us
• 0:49
  subtle
• 0:50
  messages.
• 0:51
  You're
• 0:51
  doing
• 0:51
  okay.
• 0:52
  Sometimes
• 0:53
  it's
• 0:53
  not
• 0:53
  that
• 0:53
  it
• 0:54
  you're
• 0:54
  behind,
• 0:55
  and
• 0:55
  sometimes
• 0:56
  it
• 0:56
  you
• 0:56
  should
• 0:56
  be
• 0:56
  further
• 0:57
  along
• 0:57
  by
• 0:57
  now.
• 0:58
  And
• 0:59
  over
• 0:59
  time,
• 1:00
  those
• 1:00
  messages
• 1:00
  start
• 1:01
  to
• 1:01
  feel
• 1:01
  personal,
• 1:01
  don't
• 1:02
  they?
• 1:03
  Not
• 1:03
  about
• 1:03
  money,
• 1:04
  but
• 1:04
  about
• 1:05
  you
• 1:05
  as
• 1:05
  a
• 1:05
  person.
• 1:06
  Friend,
• 1:07
  if
• 1:07
  your
• 1:07
  confidence
• 1:08
  rises
• 1:08
  when
• 1:08
  your
• 1:09
  balance
• 1:09
  goes
• 1:09
  up
• 1:09
  and
• 1:09
  sinks
• 1:10
  when
• 1:10
  it
• 1:10
  goes
• 1:10
  down,
• 1:11
  you're
• 1:11
  not
• 1:11
  shallow.
• 1:12
  You're
• 1:13
  human.
• 1:14
  But
• 1:14
  what
• 1:14
  if
• 1:14
  money
• 1:15
  was
• 1:15
  never
• 1:15
  meant
• 1:15
  to
• 1:16
  define
• 1:16
  you
• 1:16
  in
• 1:16
  the
• 1:17
  first
• 1:17
  place?
• 1:18
  What
• 1:18
  if
• 1:18
  your
• 1:18
  wallet
• 1:18
  was
• 1:19
  never
• 1:19
  supposed
• 1:19
  to
• 1:20
  tell
• 1:20
  you
• 1:20
  who
• 1:20
  you
• 1:20
  are?
• 1:21
  Today
• 1:22
  we're
• 1:22
  setting
• 1:22
  that
• 1:22
  weight
• 1:23
  down.
• 1:24
  So
• 1:24
  here's
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  question
• 1:24
  you
• 1:25
  and
• 1:25
  I
• 1:25
  are
• 1:25
  answering
• 1:26
  today.
• 1:26
  Why
• 1:27
  isn't
• 1:27
  your
• 1:28
  worth
• 1:28
  found
• 1:28
  in
• 1:29
  your
• 1:29
  wallet?
• 1:30
  And
• 1:30
  here's
• 1:30
  what
• 1:30
  you're
• 1:30
  going
• 1:31
  to
• 1:31
  walk
• 1:31
  away
• 1:31
  with.
• 1:31
  You're
• 1:32
  going
• 1:32
  to
• 1:32
  understand
• 1:32
  why
• 1:33
  money
• 1:33
  feels
• 1:33
  so
• 1:34
  tied
• 1:34
  to
• 1:34
  our
• 1:34
  identities.
• 1:35
  And
• 1:36
  you're
• 1:36
  going
• 1:36
  to
• 1:36
  feel
• 1:36
  less
• 1:36
  shame
• 1:37
  about
• 1:37
  the
• 1:37
  ups
• 1:37
  and
• 1:37
  downs
• 1:38
  you've
• 1:38
  had
• 1:38
  because,
• 1:38
  listen,
• 1:39
  we've
• 1:39
  all
• 1:39
  had
• 1:39
  them.
• 1:40
  And
• 1:40
  you're
• 1:40
  going
• 1:40
  to
• 1:41
  learn
• 1:41
  how
• 1:41
  to
• 1:41
  anchor
• 1:41
  your
• 1:42
  worth
• 1:42
  somewhere
• 1:42
  steady
• 1:43
  and
• 1:43
  safe,
• 1:44
  no
• 1:44
  matter
• 1:45
  what
• 1:45
  the
• 1:45
  numbers
• 1:45
  say.
• 2:07
  Hey,
• 2:08
  friend.
• 2:08
  Ralph
• 2:08
  Estep
• 2:09
  Jr.
• 2:09
  Here.
• 2:10
  Welcome
• 2:10
  to
• 2:10
  Financially
• 2:11
  Confident
• 2:11
  Christian,
• 2:12
  where
• 2:12
  we
• 2:12
  learn
• 2:12
  how
• 2:13
  to
• 2:13
  walk
• 2:13
  through
• 2:13
  life
• 2:13
  and
• 2:14
  money
• 2:14
  with
• 2:14
  wisdom,
• 2:15
  with
• 2:15
  peace,
• 2:16
  and
• 2:16
  with
• 2:16
  a
• 2:17
  heart
• 2:17
  anchored
• 2:17
  in
• 2:17
  God's
• 2:18
  truth.
• 2:18
  My
• 2:19
  mission
• 2:19
  is
• 2:19
  simple.
• 2:20
  I
• 2:20
  want
• 2:20
  to
• 2:20
  help
• 2:20
  you
• 2:20
  break
• 2:21
  that
• 2:21
  cycle
• 2:21
  of
• 2:22
  financial
• 2:22
  shame
• 2:23
  and
• 2:23
  build
• 2:23
  steady
• 2:23
  habits
• 2:24
  rooted
• 2:24
  in
• 2:24
  faith
• 2:25
  and
• 2:25
  become
• 2:26
  financially
• 2:27
  confident
• 2:27
  Christians.
• 2:28
  I
• 2:28
  am
• 2:28
  really
• 2:29
  glad
• 2:29
  you're
• 2:29
  here
• 2:29
  today.
• 2:30
  Yesterday
• 2:30
  we
• 2:31
  talked
• 2:31
  all
• 2:31
  about
• 2:31
  shifting
• 2:32
  from
• 2:32
  that
• 2:32
  consumer
• 2:33
  mindset
• 2:34
  to
• 2:34
  biblical
• 2:34
  stewardship,
• 2:35
  and
• 2:36
  that
• 2:36
  conversation
• 2:36
  was
• 2:37
  about
• 2:37
  posture
• 2:38
  and
• 2:38
  how
• 2:38
  you
• 2:38
  hold
• 2:39
  money.
• 2:39
  But
• 2:40
  today
• 2:40
  we're
• 2:40
  going
• 2:40
  to
• 2:40
  go
• 2:40
  even
• 2:41
  deeper.
• 2:41
  We're
• 2:41
  going
• 2:41
  to
• 2:41
  talk
• 2:41
  about
• 2:42
  identity.
• 2:43
  Because
• 2:43
  even
• 2:43
  when
• 2:43
  your
• 2:44
  habits
• 2:44
  improve,
• 2:45
  even
• 2:45
  when
• 2:45
  you
• 2:46
  start
• 2:46
  to
• 2:46
  make
• 2:46
  wiser
• 2:47
  choices,
• 2:48
  your
• 2:48
  sense
• 2:48
  of
• 2:49
  worth
• 2:49
  can
• 2:49
  still
• 2:49
  quietly
• 2:50
  rise
• 2:50
  and
• 2:50
  fall
• 2:51
  with
• 2:51
  money.
• 2:52
  And
• 2:52
  that
• 2:52
  can
• 2:52
  drain
• 2:53
  the
• 2:53
  life
• 2:53
  out
• 2:53
  of
• 2:53
  you.
• 2:54
  So
• 2:54
  let's
• 2:55
  talk
• 2:55
  about
• 2:55
  that
• 2:55
  today.
• 2:56
  A
• 2:56
  listener
• 2:57
  sent
• 2:57
  in
• 2:57
  this
• 2:57
  question.
• 2:58
  Ralph,
• 2:59
  why
• 2:59
  do
• 2:59
  I
• 2:59
  feel
• 3:00
  better
• 3:00
  about
• 3:00
  myself
• 3:01
  when
• 3:01
  my
• 3:01
  bank
• 3:02
  account
• 3:02
  looks
• 3:02
  good
• 3:03
  and
• 3:03
  worse
• 3:03
  about
• 3:04
  myself
• 3:04
  when
• 3:04
  it
• 3:05
  doesn't?
• 3:06
  And
• 3:06
  friend,
• 3:06
  that's
• 3:07
  an
• 3:07
  honest
• 3:07
  question.
• 3:07
  That's
• 3:08
  a
• 3:08
  vulnerable
• 3:08
  question.
• 3:09
  It's
• 3:09
  a
• 3:09
  brave
• 3:10
  question.
• 3:11
  And
• 3:11
  if
• 3:11
  you've
• 3:11
  ever
• 3:12
  felt
• 3:12
  that
• 3:12
  same
• 3:12
  way,
• 3:13
  you're
• 3:13
  not
• 3:13
  alone
• 3:14
  feeling
• 3:14
  that
• 3:14
  way.
• 3:14
  I
• 3:14
  felt
• 3:15
  that
• 3:15
  same
• 3:15
  way
• 3:15
  so
• 3:16
  many
• 3:16
  times
• 3:16
  in
• 3:16
  my
• 3:16
  life.
• 3:17
  But
• 3:18
  let
• 3:18
  me
• 3:18
  ask
• 3:18
  you
• 3:18
  something.
• 3:19
  Have
• 3:19
  you
• 3:19
  ever
• 3:20
  checked
• 3:20
  your
• 3:20
  balance
• 3:21
  and
• 3:21
  felt
• 3:21
  a
• 3:21
  rush
• 3:22
  of
• 3:22
  relief
• 3:22
  because
• 3:22
  it
• 3:22
  was
• 3:23
  Higher
• 3:23
  than
• 3:23
  you
• 3:23
  expected.
• 3:24
  Hey,
• 3:24
  look
• 3:24
  at
• 3:25
  this.
• 3:25
  I
• 3:25
  can't
• 3:25
  believe
• 3:26
  it.
• 3:26
  Doesn't
• 3:27
  make
• 3:27
  any
• 3:27
  sense.
• 3:28
  Or
• 3:29
  you
• 3:29
  looked
• 3:29
  at
• 3:30
  it
• 3:30
  and
• 3:30
  you
• 3:30
  felt
• 3:30
  your
• 3:30
  stomach
• 3:31
  drop
• 3:32
  like
• 3:32
  you
• 3:32
  did
• 3:32
  something
• 3:33
  wrong,
• 3:33
  like,
• 3:33
  oh,
• 3:34
  I'm
• 3:34
  the
• 3:34
  problem
• 3:35
  here.
• 3:36
  Well,
• 3:36
  if
• 3:36
  money
• 3:36
  has
• 3:37
  ever
• 3:37
  made
• 3:37
  you
• 3:37
  feel
• 3:38
  more
• 3:38
  confident
• 3:39
  or
• 3:39
  more
• 3:39
  ashamed,
• 3:40
  that
• 3:41
  doesn't
• 3:41
  mean
• 3:41
  anything
• 3:41
  is
• 3:42
  wrong
• 3:42
  with
• 3:42
  you.
• 3:43
  It
• 3:43
  means
• 3:43
  money
• 3:44
  has
• 3:44
  been
• 3:44
  asked
• 3:44
  to
• 3:44
  carry
• 3:45
  a
• 3:45
  burden
• 3:45
  it
• 3:45
  was
• 3:45
  never
• 3:46
  designed
• 3:46
  to
• 3:46
  hold
• 3:46
  in
• 3:47
  the
• 3:47
  first
• 3:47
  place.
• 3:49
  But
• 3:49
  here's
• 3:49
  the
• 3:49
  truth.
• 3:50
  Money
• 3:50
  is
• 3:51
  a
• 3:51
  shaky
• 3:51
  place
• 3:52
  to
• 3:52
  build
• 3:52
  your
• 3:52
  identity.
• 3:53
  Why?
• 3:54
  Because
• 3:54
  money
• 3:55
  moves
• 3:56
  in
• 3:56
  all
• 3:56
  of
• 3:56
  our
• 3:56
  lives.
• 3:56
  It
• 3:57
  fluctuates.
• 3:58
  Like
• 3:58
  me.
• 3:58
  It
• 3:58
  disappears.
• 4:00
  And
• 4:00
  it
• 4:00
  surprises
• 4:01
  you.
• 4:02
  And
• 4:02
  when
• 4:02
  your
• 4:02
  worth
• 4:03
  is
• 4:03
  tied
• 4:03
  to
• 4:03
  something
• 4:04
  unstable,
• 4:05
  your
• 4:05
  peace
• 4:06
  becomes
• 4:06
  unstable,
• 4:07
  too.
• 4:07
  And
• 4:08
  that
• 4:08
  anxiety
• 4:08
  you
• 4:09
  feel,
• 4:09
  that's
• 4:09
  not
• 4:10
  failure.
• 4:10
  That's
• 4:11
  misplacement.
• 4:11
  Big
• 4:12
  word.
• 4:13
  And
• 4:13
  I've
• 4:13
  walked
• 4:14
  with
• 4:14
  people
• 4:14
  who
• 4:14
  made
• 4:14
  more
• 4:15
  money
• 4:15
  than
• 4:15
  you
• 4:15
  can
• 4:16
  ever
• 4:16
  imagine,
• 4:18
  and
• 4:18
  they
• 4:18
  still
• 4:18
  feel
• 4:18
  unsecure.
• 4:20
  And
• 4:20
  I've
• 4:20
  walked
• 4:21
  with
• 4:21
  people
• 4:21
  who
• 4:21
  had
• 4:21
  very
• 4:22
  little.
• 4:22
  I'm
• 4:22
  talking
• 4:22
  about
• 4:23
  just
• 4:23
  enough
• 4:24
  to
• 4:24
  survive.
• 4:25
  And
• 4:26
  they
• 4:26
  carried
• 4:26
  with
• 4:26
  them
• 4:26
  a
• 4:27
  deep
• 4:27
  peace
• 4:27
  like
• 4:28
  you
• 4:28
  can't
• 4:28
  even
• 4:28
  fathom.
• 4:30
  The
• 4:30
  difference
• 4:30
  was
• 4:31
  never
• 4:31
  the
• 4:31
  money.
• 4:32
  It's
• 4:32
  always
• 4:33
  where
• 4:33
  they
• 4:33
  found
• 4:34
  their
• 4:34
  worth.
• 4:34
  That
• 4:34
  was
• 4:34
  the
• 4:35
  secret
• 4:35
  to
• 4:35
  it.
• 4:36
  And
• 4:36
  I
• 4:36
  once
• 4:37
  talked
• 4:37
  with
• 4:37
  someone
• 4:37
  who
• 4:37
  said
• 4:37
  this,
• 4:38
  Ralph,
• 4:38
  I
• 4:38
  only
• 4:39
  feel
• 4:39
  like
• 4:39
  I'm
• 4:39
  doing
• 4:39
  well
• 4:40
  when
• 4:40
  my
• 4:40
  numbers
• 4:41
  go
• 4:41
  up.
• 4:43
  And
• 4:43
  I
• 4:43
  felt
• 4:43
  bad
• 4:43
  for
• 4:44
  that
• 4:44
  person.
• 4:44
  Because
• 4:44
  then
• 4:45
  life
• 4:45
  hit
• 4:46
  an
• 4:46
  unexpected
• 4:47
  Bill.
• 4:47
  A
• 4:47
  hard
• 4:47
  season,
• 4:48
  a
• 4:48
  drop
• 4:48
  in
• 4:49
  income.
• 4:50
  The
• 4:50
  numbers
• 4:50
  fell,
• 4:52
  and
• 4:52
  so
• 4:52
  did
• 4:52
  their
• 4:52
  sense
• 4:53
  of
• 4:53
  value.
• 4:54
  And
• 4:54
  they
• 4:54
  told
• 4:55
  me,
• 4:55
  they
• 4:55
  said,
• 4:55
  rob,
• 4:55
  I
• 4:56
  feel
• 4:56
  like
• 4:56
  I'm
• 4:56
  failing
• 4:57
  at
• 4:57
  life,
• 4:57
  even
• 4:57
  though
• 4:57
  I
• 4:58
  know
• 4:58
  this
• 4:58
  isn't
• 4:59
  my
• 4:59
  fault.
• 4:59
  It
• 4:59
  wasn't
• 5:00
  their
• 5:00
  fault
• 5:00
  they
• 5:00
  lost
• 5:01
  their
• 5:01
  job.
• 5:01
  It
• 5:01
  wasn't
• 5:02
  their
• 5:02
  fault
• 5:02
  that
• 5:02
  this
• 5:02
  surprised
• 5:03
  Bill.
• 5:03
  It
• 5:03
  wasn't
• 5:04
  their
• 5:04
  fault
• 5:04
  their
• 5:04
  kids
• 5:05
  were
• 5:05
  sick.
• 5:05
  It
• 5:05
  wasn't
• 5:06
  their
• 5:06
  fault
• 5:06
  they
• 5:06
  had
• 5:06
  an
• 5:06
  emergency
• 5:07
  dental
• 5:07
  thing.
• 5:08
  And
• 5:09
  I
• 5:09
  would
• 5:09
  love
• 5:09
  to
• 5:09
  tell
• 5:09
  you
• 5:09
  we
• 5:10
  fixed
• 5:10
  everything
• 5:10
  overnight,
• 5:11
  but
• 5:11
  we
• 5:11
  didn't.
• 5:12
  What
• 5:12
  we
• 5:12
  did
• 5:12
  was
• 5:13
  we
• 5:13
  started
• 5:13
  separating
• 5:14
  identity
• 5:15
  from
• 5:15
  income.
• 5:15
  And
• 5:16
  when
• 5:16
  we
• 5:16
  did
• 5:16
  that,
• 5:17
  over
• 5:18
  time,
• 5:18
  slowly,
• 5:19
  the
• 5:19
  pressure
• 5:20
  eased
• 5:20
  a
• 5:20
  bit.
• 5:22
  So
• 5:22
  here's
• 5:22
  the
• 5:23
  deeper
• 5:23
  question
• 5:23
  today.
• 5:24
  Who
• 5:25
  gets
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  tell
• 5:25
  you
• 5:26
  who
• 5:26
  you
• 5:26
  are?
• 5:27
  Is
• 5:27
  it
• 5:27
  your
• 5:27
  wallet?
• 5:28
  Or
• 5:28
  is
• 5:29
  it
• 5:29
  your
• 5:29
  father
• 5:29
  in
• 5:29
  heaven?
• 5:30
  Because
• 5:31
  those
• 5:31
  two
• 5:31
  voices
• 5:32
  tell
• 5:32
  very
• 5:32
  different
• 5:33
  stories.
• 5:34
  But
• 5:34
  let's
• 5:35
  slow
• 5:35
  this
• 5:35
  down
• 5:35
  together.
• 5:36
  I
• 5:36
  want
• 5:36
  to
• 5:36
  start
• 5:37
  by
• 5:37
  saying
• 5:37
  something.
• 5:38
  Over
• 5:38
  time,
• 5:39
  money
• 5:39
  quickly
• 5:40
  becomes
• 5:40
  a
• 5:40
  mirror.
• 5:41
  Money
• 5:41
  starts
• 5:42
  reflecting
• 5:42
  back
• 5:42
  messages
• 5:43
  to
• 5:43
  you.
• 5:44
  It
• 5:44
  reflects
• 5:44
  back
• 5:45
  things
• 5:45
  like
• 5:45
  you're
• 5:45
  responsible,
• 5:46
  or
• 5:46
  like
• 5:47
  I
• 5:47
  said
• 5:47
  earlier,
• 5:47
  you're
• 5:47
  behind.
• 5:48
  You
• 5:49
  should
• 5:49
  have
• 5:49
  done.
• 5:49
  You
• 5:50
  should
• 5:50
  know
• 5:50
  better
• 5:50
  by
• 5:51
  now.
• 5:52
  But
• 5:52
  money
• 5:52
  can
• 5:53
  only
• 5:53
  show
• 5:53
  you
• 5:53
  numbers.
• 5:53
  If
• 5:54
  you
• 5:54
  don't
• 5:54
  hear
• 5:54
  anything
• 5:54
  else
• 5:55
  I
• 5:55
  say
• 5:55
  today,
• 5:55
  hear
• 5:56
  that
• 5:56
  money
• 5:56
  can
• 5:57
  only
• 5:57
  show
• 5:57
  you
• 5:58
  numbers.
• 5:58
  It
• 5:59
  will
• 5:59
  never
• 5:59
  measure
• 6:00
  your
• 6:00
  character.
• 6:00
  It
• 6:01
  will
• 6:01
  never
• 6:01
  measure
• 6:01
  your
• 6:02
  effort,
• 6:02
  and
• 6:02
  it
• 6:03
  certainly
• 6:03
  won't
• 6:03
  measure
• 6:03
  your
• 6:04
  faithfulness.
• 6:05
  But
• 6:05
  the
• 6:05
  problem
• 6:06
  is
• 6:06
  culture
• 6:06
  trains
• 6:06
  us
• 6:07
  to
• 6:07
  find
• 6:08
  and
• 6:08
  tie
• 6:08
  our
• 6:09
  worth
• 6:09
  to
• 6:09
  wealth.
• 6:10
  Because
• 6:10
  from
• 6:10
  a
• 6:10
  young
• 6:11
  age,
• 6:11
  we
• 6:11
  learn
• 6:11
  this.
• 6:12
  More
• 6:12
  money,
• 6:12
  more
• 6:13
  success,
• 6:14
  less
• 6:14
  money
• 6:15
  struggling.
• 6:16
  And
• 6:16
  that
• 6:16
  message
• 6:17
  gets
• 6:17
  repeated
• 6:17
  so
• 6:18
  often,
• 6:18
  it
• 6:18
  becomes
• 6:19
  true
• 6:19
  in
• 6:19
  our
• 6:20
  lives.
• 6:21
  But
• 6:21
  just
• 6:21
  because
• 6:21
  something's
• 6:22
  repeated
• 6:23
  doesn't
• 6:23
  mean
• 6:23
  it's
• 6:24
  true.
• 6:24
  The
• 6:24
  truth
• 6:25
  is,
• 6:25
  God
• 6:25
  anchors
• 6:26
  worth
• 6:26
  in
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  relationship.
• 6:28
  God
• 6:28
  doesn't
• 6:28
  measure
• 6:29
  you
• 6:29
  by
• 6:29
  income
• 6:29
  or
• 6:30
  your
• 6:30
  net
• 6:30
  worth.
• 6:31
  You
• 6:31
  are
• 6:31
  valued
• 6:32
  because
• 6:32
  you
• 6:32
  are
• 6:33
  his.
• 6:34
  See,
• 6:34
  before
• 6:35
  the
• 6:35
  paycheck,
• 6:36
  after
• 6:36
  the
• 6:36
  paycheck,
• 6:37
  it
• 6:37
  doesn't
• 6:37
  change.
• 6:38
  Your
• 6:38
  worth
• 6:38
  doesn't
• 6:39
  rise
• 6:39
  or
• 6:39
  fall
• 6:40
  when
• 6:40
  your
• 6:40
  income
• 6:41
  increases,
• 6:41
  your
• 6:42
  value
• 6:42
  doesn't
• 6:42
  go
• 6:42
  up.
• 6:43
  When
• 6:43
  your
• 6:43
  savings
• 6:44
  drop,
• 6:45
  your
• 6:45
  worth
• 6:45
  doesn't
• 6:45
  go
• 6:46
  down
• 6:46
  to
• 6:46
  God.
• 6:46
  Your
• 6:46
  worth
• 6:47
  is
• 6:47
  steady
• 6:47
  because
• 6:48
  God
• 6:48
  is
• 6:48
  steady.
• 6:49
  And
• 6:50
  this
• 6:50
  secure
• 6:50
  identity
• 6:51
  brings
• 6:51
  calm
• 6:52
  decisions.
• 6:52
  See,
• 6:53
  when
• 6:53
  your
• 6:53
  worth
• 6:53
  is
• 6:54
  anchored
• 6:54
  in
• 6:54
  Christ,
• 6:56
  money
• 6:56
  decisions
• 6:57
  feel
• 6:57
  lighter.
• 6:58
  That
• 6:58
  fear
• 6:59
  quiets
• 6:59
  down.
• 7:00
  That
• 7:00
  comparison
• 7:00
  that
• 7:01
  so
• 7:01
  many
• 7:01
  of
• 7:01
  us
• 7:01
  are
• 7:02
  trapped
• 7:02
  in
• 7:02
  loses
• 7:03
  its
• 7:03
  grip.
• 7:04
  And
• 7:05
  money
• 7:05
  becomes
• 7:05
  a
• 7:05
  tool
• 7:05
  again,
• 7:06
  not
• 7:06
  a
• 7:06
  verdict.
• 7:07
  And
• 7:07
  see,
• 7:07
  that's
• 7:07
  what
• 7:07
  money's
• 7:08
  supposed
• 7:08
  to
• 7:08
  be.
• 7:08
  Money's
• 7:09
  supposed
• 7:09
  to
• 7:09
  be
• 7:09
  a
• 7:09
  tool,
• 7:10
  not
• 7:10
  a
• 7:10
  verdict
• 7:11
  on
• 7:11
  your
• 7:11
  worth.
• 7:12
  Now,
• 7:12
  you
• 7:13
  gotta
• 7:13
  be
• 7:13
  honest
• 7:13
  with
• 7:13
  yourself,
• 7:14
  though.
• 7:14
  This
• 7:14
  doesn't
• 7:15
  remove
• 7:15
  responsibility.
• 7:16
  A
• 7:16
  lot
• 7:16
  of
• 7:16
  people
• 7:17
  say,
• 7:17
  okay,
• 7:17
  well,
• 7:17
  I'm
• 7:17
  just
• 7:18
  not
• 7:18
  gonna
• 7:18
  worry
• 7:18
  about
• 7:18
  it.
• 7:18
  Rob,
• 7:18
  what
• 7:19
  you're
• 7:19
  telling
• 7:19
  me
• 7:19
  is
• 7:20
  God's
• 7:20
  got
• 7:20
  this.
• 7:20
  No,
• 7:21
  that's
• 7:21
  not
• 7:21
  what
• 7:21
  I'm
• 7:22
  saying.
• 7:22
  You
• 7:22
  still
• 7:23
  have
• 7:23
  responsibility.
• 7:24
  You
• 7:25
  still
• 7:25
  got
• 7:25
  a
• 7:25
  budget.
• 7:26
  You
• 7:26
  still
• 7:26
  got
• 7:26
  a
• 7:26
  plan.
• 7:27
  You
• 7:27
  still
• 7:27
  have
• 7:27
  to
• 7:28
  grow.
• 7:29
  You
• 7:29
  just
• 7:29
  do
• 7:29
  it
• 7:30
  without
• 7:30
  shame
• 7:30
  driving
• 7:31
  the
• 7:31
  entire
• 7:32
  process.
• 7:33
  And
• 7:33
  over
• 7:34
  time,
• 7:34
  that
• 7:34
  peace
• 7:35
  replaces
• 7:36
  the
• 7:36
  panic.
• 7:37
  Because
• 7:37
  in
• 7:37
  the
• 7:38
  end,
• 7:38
  your
• 7:38
  wallet
• 7:38
  reflects
• 7:39
  a
• 7:39
  season.
• 7:40
  It's
• 7:41
  not
• 7:41
  your
• 7:41
  character,
• 7:42
  it's
• 7:42
  not
• 7:42
  your
• 7:42
  future,
• 7:43
  and
• 7:43
  it's
• 7:43
  not
• 7:43
  your
• 7:43
  value.
• 7:44
  It's
• 7:44
  just
• 7:44
  a
• 7:45
  season.
• 7:46
  And
• 7:46
  guess
• 7:46
  what?
• 7:47
  Seasons
• 7:48
  change.
• 7:49
  Let's
• 7:50
  look
• 7:50
  at
• 7:50
  our
• 7:50
  scripture
• 7:50
  today.
• 7:51
  Comes
• 7:51
  to
• 7:51
  us
• 7:51
  from
• 7:51
  Galatians,
• 7:52
  chapter
• 7:53
  3,
• 7:53
  verse
• 7:53
  26.
• 7:55
  So
• 7:55
  in
• 7:55
  Christ
• 7:55
  Jesus,
• 7:56
  you
• 7:56
  are
• 7:56
  all
• 7:56
  children
• 7:57
  of
• 7:57
  God
• 7:57
  through
• 7:58
  faith.
• 7:59
  And
• 7:59
  I
• 7:59
  just
• 8:00
  love
• 8:00
  this
• 8:00
  verse
• 8:01
  of
• 8:01
  the
• 8:01
  Bible.
• 8:02
  It
• 8:02
  means
• 8:02
  that
• 8:02
  your
• 8:03
  worth
• 8:03
  is
• 8:03
  received.
• 8:04
  Think
• 8:04
  about
• 8:04
  that
• 8:05
  for
• 8:05
  a
• 8:05
  second.
• 8:05
  So
• 8:06
  in
• 8:06
  Christ
• 8:06
  Jesus,
• 8:07
  you
• 8:07
  are
• 8:07
  all
• 8:07
  children
• 8:07
  of
• 8:08
  God
• 8:08
  through
• 8:08
  faith.
• 8:08
  You
• 8:09
  didn't
• 8:09
  earn
• 8:09
  anything,
• 8:10
  you
• 8:10
  didn't
• 8:10
  achieve
• 8:10
  it.
• 8:12
  And
• 8:12
  that
• 8:12
  truth
• 8:13
  right
• 8:13
  there
• 8:14
  can
• 8:14
  quiet
• 8:14
  a
• 8:15
  restless
• 8:15
  heart.
• 8:17
  So
• 8:17
  here's
• 8:17
  what
• 8:17
  I
• 8:17
  want
• 8:17
  you
• 8:17
  to
• 8:17
  do
• 8:18
  today.
• 8:18
  Something
• 8:18
  simple.
• 8:19
  I
• 8:19
  want
• 8:19
  you
• 8:19
  to
• 8:19
  write
• 8:19
  this
• 8:19
  sentence
• 8:20
  down,
• 8:20
  and
• 8:21
  I
• 8:21
  want
• 8:21
  you
• 8:21
  to
• 8:21
  write
• 8:22
  it
• 8:22
  down
• 8:22
  a
• 8:22
  couple
• 8:22
  times.
• 8:22
  I
• 8:22
  remember
• 8:23
  when
• 8:23
  I
• 8:23
  was
• 8:23
  in
• 8:23
  school,
• 8:23
  we
• 8:24
  got
• 8:24
  in
• 8:24
  trouble
• 8:24
  in
• 8:24
  school
• 8:24
  to
• 8:25
  write
• 8:25
  the
• 8:25
  same
• 8:25
  thing.
• 8:25
  Ten
• 8:26
  times
• 8:26
  on
• 8:26
  a
• 8:26
  piece
• 8:26
  of
• 8:26
  paper.
• 8:27
  I
• 8:27
  want
• 8:27
  you
• 8:27
  to
• 8:28
  think
• 8:28
  that
• 8:28
  same
• 8:28
  thing
• 8:28
  today,
• 8:29
  but
• 8:29
  this
• 8:29
  is
• 8:29
  what
• 8:29
  I
• 8:29
  want
• 8:29
  you
• 8:30
  to
• 8:30
  write
• 8:30
  down.
• 8:30
  My
• 8:31
  worth
• 8:31
  is
• 8:31
  in
• 8:31
  Christ,
• 8:32
  not
• 8:32
  my
• 8:33
  wallet.
• 8:34
  My
• 8:34
  worth
• 8:35
  is
• 8:35
  in
• 8:35
  Christ,
• 8:36
  not
• 8:36
  my
• 8:37
  wallet.
• 8:37
  I'm
• 8:37
  going
• 8:37
  to
• 8:37
  say
• 8:37
  it
• 8:37
  one
• 8:37
  more
• 8:38
  time.
• 8:38
  My
• 8:38
  worth
• 8:39
  is
• 8:39
  in
• 8:39
  Christ,
• 8:41
  not
• 8:41
  my
• 8:42
  wallet.
• 8:43
  And
• 8:43
  then
• 8:43
  put
• 8:43
  it
• 8:43
  somewhere
• 8:44
  you're
• 8:44
  going
• 8:44
  to
• 8:44
  see
• 8:44
  it.
• 8:45
  And
• 8:46
  when
• 8:46
  money
• 8:46
  tries
• 8:46
  to
• 8:47
  shout
• 8:47
  at
• 8:47
  you,
• 8:47
  when
• 8:47
  it
• 8:47
  tries
• 8:48
  to
• 8:48
  speak
• 8:48
  louder,
• 8:49
  let
• 8:49
  that
• 8:49
  sit
• 8:50
  and
• 8:50
  speak
• 8:50
  back.
• 8:51
  How

  identities

  we've

  built
• 8:58
  around

  Teach

  to
• 9:01
  rest
• 9:01
  in

  who
• 9:01
  you
• 9:02
  say
• 9:02
  we
• 9:02
  are,
• 9:02
  not
• 9:03
  what
• 9:03
  the
• 9:03
  world
• 9:03
  tells
• 9:04
  us
• 9:04
  or
• 9:04
  what
• 9:04
  our
• 9:04
  bank
• 9:05
  account
• 9:05
  balance
• 9:05
  tells
• 9:06
  us.
• 9:07
  Calm
• 9:07
  our
• 9:07
  hearts,
• 9:08
  Lord,
• 9:08
  as
• 9:08
  we

  trust

  you.

  we

  ask

  this
• 9:10
  in

  Jesus

  name.
• 9:12
  Amen.

  financial
• 10:05
  freedom.
• 10:06
  We're

  going

  to
• 10:06
  talk
• 10:06
  about

  how

  the
• 10:07
  thoughts
• 10:08
  you

  rehearse
• 10:09
  shape
• 10:09
  the
• 10:09
  choices
• 10:09
  you
• 10:10
  make
• 10:10
  and
• 10:10
  how
• 10:10
  real
• 10:11
  financial
• 10:11
  freedom
• 10:12
  starts
• 10:12
  in
• 10:12
  your
• 10:13
  mind,
• 10:13
  not
• 10:13
  in
• 10:14
  your
• 10:14
  bank
• 10:14
  account.
• 10:14
  Going

• 10:16
  And
• 10:16
  if
• 10:16
  today's
• 10:17
  episode
• 10:17
  brought
• 10:17
  relief,
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  want
• 10:18
  to
• 10:18
  encourage
• 10:19
  you
• 10:19
  share
• 10:19
  it
• 10:19
  with
• 10:19
  someone

  who
• 10:20
  needs
• 10:20
  a
• 10:21
  gentler
• 10:21
  voice
• 10:21
  around
• 10:22
  money.
• 10:22
  So
• 10:22
  many
• 10:22
  of
• 10:22
  us
• 10:23
  carry
• 10:23
  that
• 10:23
  shame.
• 10:23
  But
• 10:24
  this
• 10:24
  show
• 10:24
  isn't
• 10:25
  about
• 10:25
  financial
• 10:25
  shame.
• 10:26
  It's
• 10:26
  about
• 10:27
  learning
• 10:27
  to
• 10:27
  walk
• 10:27
  in
• 10:28
  wisdom,
• 10:28
  learning
• 10:29
  to
• 10:29
  be
• 10:29
  financially
• 10:30
  savvy,
• 10:30
  and
• 10:31
  in
• 10:31
  the
• 10:31
  end,
• 10:32
  truly
• 10:32
  becoming
• 10:33
  a
• 10:33
  financially
• 10:34
  confident
• 10:34
  Christian.
