You've probably heard someone say, "Money is the root of all evil." In fact, you've probably heard lots of "Bible verses" that weren't quoted correctly. Sure, money can do some pretty significant damage in the wrong hands. But, put to good use, it can actually effect really positive change. Whitney Capps and co-host Russ Greer discuss what a right theology of money looks like and how it has application in everyday life.

If you've played sports—or had kids who played sports—in the last 30 years, you're at least casually familiar with club-level or travel athletics. Whitney Capps and co-host Russ Greer discuss the importance of priorities for Jesus followers (at the risk of being ostracized by the entire travel ball community). Somehow, they also land on the topic of when you should retire from being a church volunteer. The lure of rabbit trails is strong!
