Proverbs 6:1-2 - Debt, Desire, And Discipline
About this episode
We challenge the myth that more credit equals freedom and show how ancient wisdom cuts through modern debt traps with clear, practical steps. A couple’s spiral into debt reveals the emotional cost, while tools like the 24-hour rule and value-based spending restore choice.
