Today, we're embarking on a journey to unlock the first of two crucial numbers every Christian should track to lead a thriving financial life that honors God.

Whether you're aiming to be debt-free or dream of being more generous without living like a pauper, this episode is your first step towards realizing those goals.
Here's what we're diving into today:
Understanding Assets Under Management (AUM): Why is AUM the second most important number for Christians to track? We'll explore how rethinking 'net worth' as 'assets under management' can change your perspective on stewardship and align your financial management with Biblical principles.
Practical Steps to Calculate Your AUM: Learn how to quickly and easily calculate your AUM with tools you already have at home. This isn't just about knowing your financial status—it's about managing God's gifts wisely and with purpose.
Real-Life Impact of Knowing Your AUM: We'll share personal stories and insights on how understanding and managing our AUM has profoundly affected our financial decisions and spiritual life. Discover how this approach can lead to greater financial peace and a more focused pursuit of God's plan for your resources.
Encouragement for Your Financial Journey: Whether your AUM is positive or negative, this number represents a starting point, not a final judgment. We discuss how every financial state presents an opportunity for growth and a deeper understanding of God's provision.

As we get started with this new series "Our 40-week checklist to giving $1 million", today we are starting with the story of what God has done the last few years. Here's a little of what we are covering. 
Our wild ride from the edge of financial despair to experiencing financial miracles. Have you ever considered that your financial situation might just be the perfect setup for a miracle? I'll share the game-changing moments that reshaped our view on money and led to abundance in ways we never expected. Dreaming of giving away a million dollars might sound out of reach, but what if I told you it's possible? Let's talk about what happens when your biggest dreams and divine inspiration collide. We've got a strategy for financial victory that goes beyond the numbers. It's about mindset shifts and making smart moves. Curious about the twists and turns on that road? We're sharing all. Generosity isn't just for those with overflowing bank accounts. We found that giving, no matter where you're at financially, has the power to transform not just the receiver's life but yours too. Let's explore how the joy of giving can be part of your life, regardless of your financial status. For us, financial freedom became a tool, not the ultimate goal. It's a means to live out our mission, not the mission itself. What could redefining financial freedom mean for your life and purpose? Sometimes, the key to a financial breakthrough is found where you least expect it. We discovered simple yet profound changes that turned everything around for us. I'm excited to share those with you. Our financial story is more than just our own personal victory. It's a ripple in a larger pond, a call to action for everyone. Let's delve into how your financial journey can impact not just your life but those around you, in ways you might not even imagine. Tune in to not just hear a story of financial transformation but to ignite a spark for your own journey towards a richer life in every sense of the word.
