Knowing your net worth is like checking your financial GPS—it shows where you are so you can chart a course forward. In this section, we’ll define what net worth really means and why your starting point (Lever #0) matters more than you might think.

Giving isn’t just a financial decision, it’s a heart decision. In this section, we’ll explore why generosity is central to biblical stewardship, how it fits into your overall financial plan, and practical ways to decide how much to give and where to give it.

Your income is the engine that powers everything else in your financial life. In this section, we’ll unpack how to earn more, understand your full compensation, manage risks, and protect what you’ve worked hard for. Stewarding your income wisely is where good financial decisions begin.

Taxes may not be exciting, but they’re one of the biggest levers in your financial life. This section will help you understand how taxes work, why they matter, and how smart planning can keep more of your money working toward your goals—and your values.

Money can slip away faster than you earn it—especially when spending goes on autopilot. This section helps you get intentional about your expenses, avoid lifestyle creep, and align your spending with your values. Stewardship means telling your money where to go, not wondering where it went.

Saving and investing are how you put your money to work instead of working for money forever. In this section, we’ll explore the basics of compound growth, wise investing, and how to steward your resources for both future needs and gospel impact.

Debt can feel like a shortcut, but it often leads to a dead end. In this section, we’ll take an honest look at borrowing, the true cost of debt, and how to break free from its grip. Biblical stewardship calls us to live in freedom, not bondage.
