In this episode of Stewardship Today, we examine debt through the lens of biblical stewardship, discussing why Scripture repeatedly warns against the dangers of borrowing. The conversation explores how debt can limit a steward's ability to faithfully manage God's resources, distinguish between different types of debt, and explain why avoiding unnecessary debt should be a long-term financial goal. It also introduces a practical framework for escaping debt by addressing its root causes, building a financial safety net, and developing a personalized plan for creating lasting financial stability. Throughout the episode, stewards are encouraged to pursue financial decisions that reflect wisdom, discipline, and faithfulness.
