Biblical Roles for Marriage with Howard Dayton
According to Marriage.com, money is the second leading cause of divorce, after infidelity, and while money problems may not be the primary reason that couples split up, it’s often the “last straw.” Well, that’s the conventional wisdom, but today we’ll look at a different kind of wisdom to keep your marriage strong and healthy wisdom straight from the Bible. Our host Rob West talks with money, and marriage, expert Howard Dayton for that.
• In marriage, arguments over money usually aren’t arguments over money.
• Ephesians 5:25: Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church, and gave himself up for her.
• If you’re having problems in your marriage, look to God’s Word for the answer, because it’s always in there.
In today’s show we also answer your questions:
• I am about to retire. Should I take money out of my 401K and roll it into an IRA to keep it safer?
• How do you calculate the required minimum distribution on a 401k?
