I’ll never forget the bank teller’s face when I brought in $26 in change to cash out for groceries for the week.

She laughed.

And that was my, “I’ve HAD it!” moment.

My husband and I were young, newly married, and had already racked up $3,000 in overdraft fees for the year — and it was only August. Our different “money languages” felt so insurmountable that we actually divorced 7 years into our marriage. Money wasn’t the only issue, but it was the match that lit the fire.

But God had other plans.

During our separation, my husband gave his life to Christ, and I learned what it meant to live my life for Jesus. He restored our marriage and gave us a second chance.

When we remarried, we decided to do things differently, including how we managed money together.

We dusted off the principles we’d learned from money classes and books over the years — the ones we never actually implemented — and this time, we put them into practice.

We learned to budget together as a team (even with different money tendencies).
We became debt-free.
We built savings.
We learned to communicate about money with honesty, humility, and grace.

And by applying what Scripture really teaches about stewardship — multiplication, preparation, generosity — our marriage, and our bank account, blossomed and grew.

Today, when God prompts us to give $500 to a missionary, we don’t check the bank first. We trust He'll provide it. We’re building wealth not in spite of our faith, but because of it.

Now I teach you the biblical principles, practical tools, and heart transformation I wish someone had taught us years earlier — so you can manage money with confidence, build wealth without guilt, and become the generous Kingdom funders God created you to be.
