Summary
Today, Dave Ramsey is a bestselling author and the radio host of the "Ramsey Show," but his common-sense approach to managing money came from lessons he learned the hard way—going through bankruptcy in his 20s as a new believer. In this podcast, Pastor Allen Jackson talks with Ramsey about the early years of his faith, the humble beginnings of Ramsey Solutions, Ramsey's approach to parenthood and work, practical ways to lead with your faith, and (of course) his thoughts about money. Ramsey's life offers a powerful testimony: When you consistently choose to follow God and diligently practice biblical concepts, you'll discover God's best plans for your life.
