Bill and Dana Wichterman

It could be a challenging conversation for some of us to listen to as Chris Meikel talks with Bill and Dana Wichterman, the authors of “Stewards Not Owners, The Joy Of Aligning Your Money With Your Faith.” They talk about living generously, the conversations couples should have about money before marriage, even before engagement. Bill and Dana also discuss the dangers of money and the sanctifying role of work. But mostly, they point us to glorifying God as we manage our money for His Kingdom. That’s on this Special Encounter on Bott Radio Network.

She is the founder and president of Christians Engaged, an organization that has recently merged with Family Policy Alliance Foundation. Bunni talks about the merger, and how they have built a voter mobilization system specifically for Christians that encompasses all 50 states.
