Money, faith, and the practical realities of modern life often feel like separate worlds. 'Where Your Treasure Is...': The Podcast where Faith and Finance Meet bridges that gap, creating a space for thoughtful conversation about stewardship in a complex financial landscape. Hosted by Simon Glazier and Bex Elder, this podcast isn't about simplistic answers or prosperity gospel; it's a grounded exploration of how timeless biblical wisdom interacts with the nuts and bolts of financial planning, debt, investing, and generosity within the UK system. Each episode tackles a specific issue-from pensions and mortgages to ethical spending and the meaning of wealth-filtering it through a lens of Christian thought. You'll hear practical advice intertwined with reflective discussion, asking what it truly means to be responsible with our possessions. The goal is to equip listeners with both spiritual perspective and tangible understanding, fostering confidence and clarity in money matters. This is a resource for anyone seeking to align their financial life with their deeper values, navigating the tension between cultural pressures and faithful living. Join Simon and Bex for honest, accessible dialogues that make finance feel less intimidating and faith more applicable to your daily decisions.
