When you hear the word risk what comes to mind? Maybe you're the type to jump right in or maybe you tend to hold back. For this week's round table, two of our blog contributors Matthew John and Chelsey Munneke join us to discuss what risks they've taken that were worth it. We hope you feel inspired to be bold in making decisions and rejoice in the ways God has guided the risks you've taken in the past to bring you where you are today.
Your Money God's Way

Our guest Amie Streater, financial stewardship pastor at New Life Church in Colorado Springs, was in the studio this week to tell us about her book Your Money God's Way. She says when it comes to finances, "taking crazy risks does not mean you have great faith; it just means you like to jump off cliffs without a parachute." In this segment, she shares a bit of her story about paying off massive debt and gives tips for fighting an attitude of entitlement.
