Catholic Money Talk

Catholic Money Talk

Welcome to Catholic Money Talk where we talk about all things money and finance. Many times we look at financial decisions and money matters in a vacuum. But here we try to look at these same items through a Catholic lens. If God made us to know him, love him, and serve him in this life so that we can be happy forever with him in the next, we need to determine how we can know, love, and serve him with our finances. We tackle topics like debt, home buying and other large purchases, insurance, budgeting, generosity, saving, and investing as well as educating our kids with good financial principles that will benefit them for life. We acknowledge that all we have belongs to God and we want to be good stewards of all that he has blessed us with.

I often get asked, "Why do we need to create a monthly budget?" The answer is pretty simple: "Because every month is different." Budgeting monthly will give you more clarity about your finances, it will provide more control over your spending, and help you achieve your goals. Give it a listen.
