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

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.

Head over to www.outpostadvisors.net if you want to talk in depth about your own decision process as you navigate complex financial issues!

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!
