Since we began the #FinishLinePodcast, we’ve had hundreds of conversations that have shaped the way we see generosity. Again and again, we’ve watched God grow generosity in individuals, marriages, and families over a lifetime, often through unexpected paths. And almost every story brings up the same honest question: “What does this mean for me, and where might God be leading me next?”That question led to our biggest launch yet, the #AppliedGenerosityPodcast, introduced in a special episode with Finish Line board members David Campaigne from Blue Trust and Matt Mancinelli from Generous Giving.Every generosity journey is unique, yet many people find themselves navigating similar questions and decisions along the way.Applied Generosity explores seven key dimensions that consistently show up in generous believers’ lives. Our hope is that it brings clarity and direction to where God may already be at work in your story.If the Finish Line Podcast has inspired you but you’re still wondering what your next step might be, this podcast was made for you.Listen now on your favorite podcast platform and on the Finish Line Podcast!

Michael also explores the difference between “bread” and “seed,” flourishing in community, learning to be a good receiver, and stretching faith through generosity.🎧 Listen now to The Finish Line Podcast and see how generosity shapes a fearless life!

💡 Ever feel like you’ve “made it” but something inside still feels empty?That’s exactly how Michael Blue, Director of Discipleship at the Ron Blue Institute, felt in his thirties, even with professional success and financial security all around him. In the latest episode of The Finish Line Podcast, he shares his personal journey of surrender, a story full of insight and honesty that will inspire you to rethink trust, faith, and what it truly means to let go.Raised in a home shaped by biblical financial stewardship, Michael developed strong money habits early. Yet even with career success and stability, he felt a deeper restlessness. Through prayer, reflection, and surrender, he discovered what it really means to trust God with every part of life. He realized his calling is to help believers align their finances with wholehearted discipleship, seeing stewardship as worship and generosity as freedom rooted in trusting God.Today, Michael focuses on forming biblical and practical financial wisdom in the next generation, especially high school and college students. He also helped pioneer the 9:23 Fellowship, guiding believers to follow Jesus in every area of life, including how they steward money, grow in community, and trust God’s provision.🎧 Listen now to The Finish Line Podcast and be inspired by Michael Blue’s journey of surrender.

What does it look like to trust God when provision

What does it look like to trust God when provision is not guaranteed tomorrow?For Renée Rinehart, generosity was never just a concept. It was shaped early through a family life marked by missions, hospitality, and entrepreneurial risk. But the deeper formation came later, when she and her husband, John, felt invited to ask harder questions about purpose, wealth, and obedience.
That invitation led them into a season that still feels impossible to many who hear it.A 132-day journey across 22 countries, trusting God each day for their bed and their bread.
There was sickness. There was uncertainty. There were moments when provision showed up just in time. And through it all, Renée learned something she could not have learned from safety or surplus. God could be trusted, even when the outcome was unclear.That posture eventually shaped everything that followed, including their work with Gospel Patrons. Through stories of patrons throughout history and modern patron-proclaimer partnerships, Renée now helps others see the beauty and joy of surrender shaped generosity.If you are in a season where God is asking for trust before clarity, you are not alone. Where have you seen obedience stretch your understanding of God as provider?

Have you ever stopped and asked, “Am I giving wher

Have you ever stopped and asked, “Am I giving where God actually cares the most?”The beautiful thing is that God makes this clear for us. His Word is full of invitations to love, serve, and give toward very specific needs.This framework comes from Jim Wise, a financial advisor who came to faith and began asking a simple but life-shaping question: How should my faith shape the way I give? As a new believer in the finance world, Jim spent years studying Scripture daily, paying close attention to repeated calls to action.Over time, those patterns revealed three ministries that are especially close to God’s heart.We hope this encourages and inspires your giving as this year comes to a close and as you look ahead to the next one.Visit our website to learn how you can join God’s work and give with greater purpose. 💛 Link in bio!#FinishLinePledge #Generosity #Giving #YearEndGiving #GenerousLife
