HOME: Reading to Your Children and the Power of Story

Steven Manuel and his old good friend Jeff Davenport talk about the importance of reading to your children and how fathers can get good at it. [The most important book you can read to your family is THE BIBLE, but other works are great too] (9:00). But first, they waste our time yammering on about Earnest Shakleton and Fuddrucker’s hamburgers. They also spend an inordinate amount of time in the middle of this episode talking about Public Service Announcements shown during 1980s kids television programming (21:50) before eventually getting back on topic (26:40).

They cover: The Scriptural basis of fostering intelligence in children (10:20), The benefits of reading to children (33:15) The ways readers can improve in this important activity, and (44:00) Then give us some examples of good vs bad reading (1:04:00) Then finish by reviewing practical opportunities for dads to read (1:10:15).

Series and books we love and recommend include: Little Britches, Ralph Moody Little House on the Prairie, Laura Ingalls Wilder The Chronicles of Narnia, CS Lewis The Wingfeather Saga, Andrew Peterson Winnie the Pooh, AA Milne Anne of Green Gables, Lucy Maud Montgomery The Secret Garden, Francis Hodgson Burnett The Adventures of Robin Hood, Howard Pyle

Other books and products mentioned in this episode: The Storytelling Animal, Johnathan Gottshall R.I.F. PSA featuring Carol Burnett

The First Part of Your Money

The First Part of Your Money

Join Steven in the coffee shop this week as he lets you in on a little secret: God is preeminent over all things, at all times.  Even if you deny Him this and temporarily steal His glory, He will eventually be proven right and you will be disappointingly corrected. As first and preeminent, He demands the first part of ANY and EVERYTHING to either be sacrificed or redeemed.  The first part matters An Awful Lot To Him. Sponsor link: www.outpostadvisors.net

Permanent Insurance: Hero or Villain?

Permanent Insurance: Hero or Villain?

Join us for an instructional Q&A with mild mannered reporter Jimmy Olsen. First off, permanent insurance – which includes products like whole life insurance and universal life insurance – combines savings and investment with insurance coverage. If you’re already unsure that you’re going to make it to the end of this article, then you can just jot down our thesis statement right here: We believe that investing and insurance are both important and good, but it rarely makes sense to combine the two objectives. Head over to www.outpostadvisors.net if you want to talk in depth about your own decision process as you navigate complex financial issues!

How to Insure Your Life Without Breaking the Ponderosa

How to Insure Your Life Without Breaking the Ponderosa

When It comes to life insurance, you most likely fall into one of two camps.  Either you’re all jumbled up in your brain about coverage amount, policy types, term vs. whole life, where to title your policy, etc. OR you have no questions at all about insurance and are just now considering that you might need to purchase some. (“Didn’t my employer say I get free life insurance at work? I’m sure that’ll be enough…?”)  In this episode we’ll explore four key questions on life insurance and hopefully give you a starting point for how to think about your own needs in this area!

Who needs insurance?

Who needs insurance?

Gents, it’s time we broached a subject that I KNOW impacts all your lives. You’ve either worried about it, scoffed about it, or perhaps given in to it to a degree that concerns you. Because, for faith-guided missiles like us, these waters are murky, and it’s unclear if playing ball is wise or faithless. You know what I’m talking about because it’s in the title. We talkin ‘bout INSURANCE. Giveaway Alert! Send your insurance questions to mark@abrahamswallet.com and one lucky inquisitor will receive a copy of Jeff Davenport’s new book – I am a Field.
