00:00:08,165 --> 00:00:17,325
Speaker 1: Life Audio from the Salvation Army. Welcome to Heartbeat. Money

2
00:00:17,365 --> 00:00:20,365
Speaker 1: has a way of sneaking into our relationships and stirring

3
00:00:20,445 --> 00:00:24,084
Speaker 1: up tension, especially in marriage. For a lot of couples,

4
00:00:24,125 --> 00:00:27,285
Speaker 1: it's one of the biggest sources of arguments. But scripture

5
00:00:27,285 --> 00:00:30,325
Speaker 1: gives us an important reminder. It doesn't say that money

6
00:00:30,365 --> 00:00:33,284
Speaker 1: is evil. It says that the love of money is

7
00:00:33,365 --> 00:00:36,765
Speaker 1: the root of all kinds of evil. When our finances

8
00:00:36,805 --> 00:00:39,685
Speaker 1: get out of control, it can divide us, but that's

9
00:00:39,685 --> 00:00:43,405
Speaker 1: not how God designed marriage. Your spouse isn't your competition.

10
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:46,644
Speaker 1: They're your partner. You're on the same team, building the

11
00:00:46,685 --> 00:00:50,885
Speaker 1: same life, pursuing a future together. So instead of fighting

12
00:00:50,925 --> 00:00:54,645
Speaker 1: against each other, choose to fight for each other. Be honest,

13
00:00:54,765 --> 00:00:58,325
Speaker 1: be gracious, be unified, and have a plan you both

14
00:00:58,405 --> 00:01:01,725
Speaker 1: agree on because marriage, grounded and trust and centered on

15
00:01:01,765 --> 00:01:04,525
Speaker 1: God will always be worth more than anything that money

16
00:01:04,565 --> 00:01:09,245
Speaker 1: can buy. For more episodes of Heartbeat, visit Salvation Army
