What if you don't need more money to pay off your debt?
What if you just need to see what's already in your house?
That's the pattern hiding inside a story in 2 Kings 4.
A widow. A dead husband. A creditor at the door.
And one small flask of olive oil that God multiplied until her debt was gone.
This episode was recorded live from one of our workshops.
Linda and I walk through the whole story, verse by verse.
Then we pull five simple steps out of it for paying off debt fast:
- Name your need.
- Take inventory of your house.
- Gather your jars.
- Shut your door.
- And pour your flask.
We also tell our own debt payoff story, starting with a blog that made $100 a month.
And why students in our Mission Driven Millionaire coaching program have paid off $17,000, $25,000, even $65,000 of debt in a matter of months…
This isn't a budgeting lecture.
It isn't a "just have more faith" pep talk either.
It's a biblical formula for getting in step with how God works.
And it might change how you see your debt for good.
So grab a notebook. You're going to want to write this one down.
