    099 - Greed Is Not Just a Rich Person Problem

    Greed does not always look like someone hoarding millions of dollars. Sometimes it looks like a car payment you never needed, constantly comparing yourself to someone else, working so much that you miss your family, or being afraid to give because you never feel like there will be enough. In this episode, we talk about what greed actually looks like and how Christians can replace it with contentment, stewardship, gratitude, and generosity. How Greed Shows Up • Why greed can affect people with a lot of money or very little • How debt and lifestyle inflation can keep you trapped • Why scarcity thinking can still be a form of greed • How envy reveals what is happening in your heart How to Fight Greed • Give more of your time • Practice gratitude • Become more generous financially • Learn to say no even when you can afford to say yes • Help other people succeed instead of always focusing on yourself Follow us on Instagram @fullydedicatedpodcast Email us at fullydedicated@countryside.cc Available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts Just because you can afford something does not mean you need it. #christianpodcast #greed #generosity #stewardship #contentment #christianliving #money #biblicalfinance #fullydedicated #gratitude #christianmoney #giving #faithandfinances #biblicalwisdom #christianity

    098 - What Is It Like Being on the Other Side of You?

    You know your intentions. Everyone else experiences your actions. And sometimes those two things do not match. In this episode, we talk about self-awareness, blind spots, leadership, communication, and the questions you need to ask the people closest to you if you actually want to grow. Questions You Need to Ask• What is it like being on the other side of me?• What am I like when I am stressed?• Do you feel included in my decisions or informed after the fact?• Where do I have room to grow?

    095 - Speak the Truth in Love: What Christians Keep Getting Wrong

    Christians are called to speak the truth, but Scripture never gives us permission to use truth as an excuse to be rude, prideful, or disrespectful. Jesus was full of grace and truth, and learning how to hold both at the same time is one of the hardest parts of following Him. Truth, Grace, and Hard Conversations • Why Christians tend to drift toward truth without love or love without truth • How to call someone out with gentleness and respect • Why being right does not always mean you handled something the right way • Why real friends are sometimes the ones willing to tell you what you do not want to hear Receiving Correction • Why speaking truth in love also means being willing to receive it • The question every leader should ask: "What is it like being on the other side of me?" • Why asking your spouse how you can love them better can strengthen your marriage • How feedback exposes blind spots and creates growth Christians on Social Media • Why arguing with strangers online usually changes nothing • The difference between standing for truth and attacking people • Why relationships create more influence than comment sections • How to disagree with someone and still genuinely love and respect them Follow us on Instagram @fullydedicatedpodcast Email us at fullydedicated@countryside.cc Available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts You can be right and still be wrong in the way you handle it. #christianpodcast #speakthetruthinlove #christianliving #graceandtruth #christianaccountability #hardconversations #fullydedicated #faithandculture #christiansocialmedia #christianleadership #biblicalwisdom #jesus
