    Too Young and Broke to Give?

We discuss how to think about and approach generosity, even if you are just starting out earning an income. Even if you just have a part-time job. Even if you have NO job, generosity isn’t just about money.

    Faith, Family, and Finances with Curtis James

Dave pulls no punches, labeling this a classic case of "failure to launch"—but what is the deeper story here? Whether you're a parent trying to encourage your kids to fly or a young adult feeling stuck in the nest, this episode offers a practical, grace-filled perspective on taking the next step.

    Margin Gardening

    It doesn’t matter if you make $40,000 or $200,000 a year—if you don’t have margin, you can’t make progress. In this episode of the Launch Your Real Life Podcast, we dive into the "magical" difference between what you earn and what you spend. Many young Christians feel stuck, but the power to change your story lies in understanding your numbers. We discuss the two primary "levers" you can pull to expand your margin and start winning with money: Pruning Your Expenses: Learn how "margin gardening" can save you hundreds of dollars. From re-shopping insurance and internet to auditing property taxes, don't let a few phone calls stand between you and your goals. Increasing Your Income: The power of the side hustle or the promotion, especially in the early stages of your career. Harnessing the Difference: Why extra money disappears when it isn't tracked, and how to ensure every dollar is working toward your calling in the Kingdom. Whether you're looking to afford a new car payment or save for your first home, it all starts with the margin. Tune in to learn how to find yours!

    Pushing Through Shame

    Money is a sensitive topic. For many of us, the mere thought of checking a bank balance or sitting down to a budget brings up a physical sense of discomfort, baggage, or even shame. In this episode of the Launch Your Real Life Podcast, we get vulnerable about the "stomach-twist" that happens when we aren't where we want to be—whether that’s in our spiritual disciplines or our financial stewardship.  You were meant to be a steward, a provider, and a generous giver. Don't let past mistakes keep you from your future story.

    You Need Community

    Personal finance is often treated as a "private" matter, but isolation is where most financial goals go to die. In this episode of the Launch Your Real Life Podcast, we explore why community is the ultimate engine for encouragement and accountability. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, we look at the biblical truth that "two are better than one." Whether you are struggling to stick to a budget or celebrating a milestone on your way to independence, having a "pit crew" around you changes everything.
