Financial Grace Radio: Cultivating God’s Money Trees in Your Life Today

Today's Show: Talking (or not talking) about Money

Ephesians 4:15 tells us that we are to speak the truth in love.  Ordinarily we’d interpret a verse like that to have relevance when we’re approaching someone about a potential conflict.  But regarding finances, I have come to know it also as a directive that is particularly relevant to the second part of the verse which tells us why?:  So that “we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ”.  

What I have experienced in my own life and with countless people I have worked with over the years is the interesting stronghold that Satan gains in people’s lives by convincing them to keep secrets about money.  The secrets can be small like not being completely honest about how much something cost or larger like not telling your spouse that you lost your job or your life savings in a bad investment.  

This week on Financial Grace Radio we’ll look at different scenarios for how to talk about money with various people in your life, from call-centre operators at the bank, to your spouse, children, boss, financial advisor, friends, etc.
