    Snapshot Episode 95: From Vision to Victory Mastering the "Implementation" Mindset w. Dawn Foster

    In this special snapshot edition of Yahweh’s Money, host Shay Cook opens up the show's library to bring listeners a focused, meaningful excerpt. Today's episode dives into a raw, honest conversation with guest Dawn Foster about conquering the fear of standing still, learning to move when God says move, and overcoming the overthinking that can stall our financial and professional goals. Shay is joined by Dawn Foster to discuss trusting that God will clean up our messes when we step out in obedience, finding daily alignment through morning quiet time and praise music, and why showing up for our business every single day is actually an ultimate act of worship. They also share a candid dialogue about shifting away from idle waiting, stepping boldly into divine purpose and strategy, and navigating the boundaries required for entrepreneurship alongside family dynamics. Featured Insight: "For me personally, if I continue to stay still with something that I ultimately knew, that's really just another sign of fear... I can't— once I know I need to move, I need to do something, and if I continue to wait…I'll spend way more time waiting and being idle with something that I know I need to start taking the steps. And I really, since then, I've really been leaning into reminding myself that everything will work out for my good…If God knows that I have good intent behind what I'm doing, he'll come in and clean up after me if I mess something up." — Dawn Foster Listen to the full episode here: www.crusaders4change.org/ym-ep-95 Send us Fan Mail 💸⛪🕍📿💵 Our podcast is proudly sponsored by Crusaders for Change®, LLC (C4C) and hosted by our CEO and Founder, Mrs. Shay Cook.

    Snapshot Episode 94: Silent Era Stewardship Navigating Caregiving, Inheritance, and Financial Secrecy w. Rev. Mitchell Tull, Sr.

    In this special snapshot edition of Yahweh’s Money, host Shay Cook opens up the show's library to bring listeners a focused, meaningful excerpt. Today's episode dives into a raw, honest conversation with her father, Reverend Mitchell Tull, Sr., about the deeply spiritual and emotional journey of caring for an aging parent, moving beyond our own small orbits, and stepping into a greater responsibility as we mature. Shay is joined by Reverend Mitchell Tull to discuss keeping communication lines open across generations, balancing the real cost of caregiving—from financial strain to massive career and time sacrifices—and how life experiences like military training prepare us to stay resilient through the unexpected. They also share a candid dialogue about honoring our parents through life's transitions, being prepared for life's shifts, and what it truly means to be a full-time believer willing to answer a higher call to love, care, and sacrifice. Featured Insight: "Don't get hung up on the negativity. Don't get hung up on the bad situations. But keep the lines of communication[s] open with your parents and with one another, because we all here together... So I mean, if you're a believer, then you have to be all the way as a believer, not just a part-time believer, but a full believer in the word of God." — Reverend Mitchell D.

    Snapshot Episode 83: Holy Hustle Balancing Ambition, Obedience & Financial Faith with Dewan Clayborn

    In this special snapshot edition of Yahweh’s Money, host Shay Cook opens up the show's library to bring listeners a focused, meaningful excerpt. Today's episode dives into a raw, honest conversation with guest Dewan Clayborn about the difference between godly ambition and selfish ambition, the sacrifice of shifting your salary for long-term growth, and navigating the spiritual traps of a non-stop hustle culture. Shay is joined by Dewan Clayborn to discuss standing firmly on scripture during financial pay cuts, why keeping your tithes and offerings consistent is the true baseline of kingdom wealth, and learning to quiet the noise of the world to prioritize divine obedience and self-care. They also share a candid dialogue about being faithful over the little things God has entrusted to you, breaking generational curses, and learning to chase God rather than status and promotions. Featured Insight: "So if you're not doing that consistently, you haven't even seen an inch of God's faith and his glory, and what he can do for your life, you know. Because until... the Word says when you show God you’re faithful with little things, he'll bless you with greater things. So how can you expect to grow a million-dollar company or to create a multi-million-dollar, uh, family or break generational curses when what he's entrusted you with, you haven't been faithful with?" — Dewan Clayborn - President & CEO of the Central Maryland Chamber of Commerce Listen to the full episode here: www.crusaders4change.org/ym-ep-83 Send us Fan Mail 💸⛪🕍📿💵 Our podcast is proudly sponsored by Crusaders for Change®, LLC (C4C) and hosted by our CEO and Founder, Mrs. Shay Cook.

    Snapshot Episode 82: From Debt to Destiny®️ Building Faith and Finances with Montoya Silver

    In this special snapshot edition of Yahweh’s Money, host Shay Cook opens up the show's library to bring listeners a focused, meaningful excerpt. This episode explores the honest, unspoken realities of navigating business debt, running a company lean, and how traditional financial rules dramatically shift when you step into entrepreneurship. Shay is joined by her sister, Montoya Silver, to examine the hidden formulas of business cash flow and why standard personal debt-payoff strategies don't always translate to the corporate world. They also share a candid dialogue about the trial-and-error of business deductions, the constant fluctuation of corporate revenue, and how strategic checking account setups, paired with a leap of faith, can help eliminate credit card debt. Featured Insight: "I have my debt, and I'm paying the minimum, but I'm not trying to pay it for 30 years. I'm trying to pay this off so that I could scale my business so that I can acquire even more debt so that I can scale my business. So it's just...it doesn't translate like that." — Montoya Silver Listen to the full episode here: www.crusaders4change.org/ym-ep-82 Send us Fan Mail 💸⛪🕍📿💵 Our podcast is proudly sponsored by Crusaders for Change®, LLC (C4C) and hosted by our CEO and Founder, Mrs. Shay Cook.

    The Heart’s Ledger: Recapping Season 4 & Confronting the Numbness of Spending

    In this episode of Yahweh’s Money, I am pulling back the curtain on the silent budget killers: financial distraction and emotional numbing. I share a vulnerable solo reflection on the "Heart’s Ledger," recapping the powerful lessons of Season 4 while addressing how we often use physical transactions to fill spiritual voids. Together, we explore why we turn to "hustle culture”, retail therapy, and even food to soothe our souls during times of global and personal stress. By looking at our finances as a mirror of our hearts, we discuss how to stop spending to forget and start investing to heal—moving from a cycle of "harvesting little" to repairing the holes in our spiritual purses. You’ll Discover: The "Hustle" as a Shield: How keeping a crowded and crazy schedule is often an attempt to outrun underlying pain, anxiety, or depression.Retail Therapy vs. Spiritual Health: A look at how platforms like Amazon, social media, and even food delivery apps provide temporary dopamine hits that distract us from God’s peace.Financial Honesty: Why avoiding your bank statement is often an avoidance of the truth regarding where you are actually seeking comfort.Featured Scripture: Haggai 1:6 — "You have planted much, but harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes but are not warm. You earn wages only to put them into a purse with holes in it." Action Steps: This week, take time to sit in the silence and audit both your heart and your ledger to ensure you are practicing true stewardship: Perform a Spending Audit: Review your last 30 days of transactions and circle the purchases made out of boredom, sadness, or stress. Total these up to see the "tax" you are paying for your stress.Practice 15 Minutes of Silence: Dedicate time this week with no phone, no work, and no shopping. Ask God what you are trying to hide through your busyness and pray for the courage to be still.Repair the "Holes": Identify one area where you are "spending to forget" and replace that habit with a restorative practice, such as prayer or speaking with a therapist.When holes in your heart are repaired, you don't need to add coins to a purse.
