20. The Bible and Money with The Finish Line Cofounder, Cody Hobelmann
When the topic of money is brought up, how does it make you feel?
Money can certainly be a loaded topic especially in the church, but did you know that it is one of the most talked about topics in the Bible?
Today on the show we are sharing a conversation with our guest Cody Hobelmann. Cody is a certified financial planner who founded The Finish Line Pledge with his brother Kealan. The Finish Line Pledge helps people determine how much money is enough for them to live so that they can give of their finances more freely, but Cody didn’t always live this way.
In this episode, Cody shares his paradigm shift around finances, giving, and who is in charge of it all in the end. His fresh perspective is insightful and encouraging.
God brings freedom in and through all things, and that includes money. We hope through this episode you are inspired to walk in the hope and freedom that Christ offers even in your finances.
Thank you for joining us for another week on The Abiding Free Podcast.
