Welcome to the Marriage Today podcast. I'm Karen Evans and this is my husband Jimmy and today we're talking about money.

We're talking about we're doing a series of podcasts. I just actually the last in the series of God and money.

Helping you to understand the issue of money and this is a big deal in marriages. Many people divorce or have really serious problems over the issue of money.

It's a big deal. It's something that we do every day. So let me read you a question here. We have a couple of questions for viewers.

And by the way, if you want to submit a question, we begin these podcasts by answering questions for our viewers.

MarriageTodayPodcast.com submits your question. We would love to answer it here during the podcast. This is for you Karen. Money is a hot topic for us.

We never seem to be on the same page and talking about it turns into a fight. What do we do?

Well, we went through this many, many years of this and actually it wasn't until we did a visionary treat.

Yeah. That we got set free from just the entanglement. You know, your personalities is more dominant as far as how you see things.

And I'm more, you know, a follower, I should say. But we both came into the marriage. It wasn't about our personalities. It was about how we viewed money.

And I thought security is having savings and you thought spending was having fun. And so, you know, we had this conflict of, you know, constantly seeing it differently.

And so, when we finally took that visionary treat and we began to ask the Lord, what does God say about our finances?

And we put God in the middle of it. And we prayed that week and those two days in the cabin and, you know, we just asked the Lord, you know, how do you want us to handle money?

And it was miraculous because we came out of that agreeing on everything. It was like we saw the vision for how our finances should look.

You know, whether it was, you know, spending on education, clothes, the kids, you know, all the things that, you know, were important as far as having a family.

And so, I would definitely say a visionary treat is a huge deal.

Huge deal. Just learning, learning to see money the same. Now, the book for laws of love, there are two chapters in here. Very helpful for anyone who can relate to this.

One of the chapters is called married on purpose. It's about having a visionary treat. We also have a visionary treat guidebook that we just came out with that helps you to prepare for a visionary, go on a visionary treat and follow up after your visionary treat.

There's another chapter in the book called on financial intimacy and partnerships. So if you have a hard time, and this is all that the Lord has taught us about visionary treat and about money.

If you have a hard time dealing with this as a couple, you have to get help. Don't just sit there and fight about it and don't give up.

Get help. We used to fight about it. Now we get along great because we learned some things along the way. And that's why I wrote the book for laws of love and why we developed the resource on visionary treat.

You have a question for me.
