MoneyWise with Rob West & Steve Moore

In Matthew 6, Jesus tells us how we should pray and ways that we should not pray, “… do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.” Jesus then gives us the Lord’s Prayer as an example of how we should present our needs to God, but are we really understanding the importance of it? Today, host Rob West and Steve Moore talk about that and more.

·      We often forget that only God can provide us with the food and water we need to survive.

·      Everything we have comes from God, even our ability to make money.

·      The Lord’s Prayer is an example of how we should pray for all that we hunger for (peace, love, healthy relationships, purpose, etc.).

·      The Lord’s Prayer is really to guard us from prideful thinking, believing that we can do everything on our own.

·      When we say, “Give us this day our daily bread …” we need to mean them and thank God for providing for us.

Here are a couple of questions we answered from our callers on today’s program:

·      What’s the difference between a debit card, a credit card, and a secured credit card?

·      I made poor choices in my young 20s and now I’m having to pay off debt. I want to eventually purchase a home once my debt is paid off. What are the right steps to take to get there?
