Overview:
In Episode 17, Greg Carroll explores the wisdom of Proverbs 17 and the deep connection between peace, humility, and financial harmony. From quiet homes to calm hearts, this episode reminds us that the real profit isn’t in how much we make—it’s in how we live, love, and lead under pressure. Finances may test us, but God is ultimately after our hearts.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why peace is more valuable than possessions

• How financial tension often reveals spiritual or relational issues

• What it means to “quit before the quarrel breaks out” in money conversations

• Why restraint, understanding, and emotional control are keys to wise money management

Take Action:

• Reflect: Is your money stress rooted in numbers—or in the heart?

• Ask: How can you pursue peace instead of power in financial conversations this week?

• Practice: Use fewer words, more grace, and a cooler spirit in moments of tension

Pray:
“Lord, help me value peace over possessions, unity over control, and Your wisdom over my need to be right.”
