## Resource

She paid cash to deliver two of her babies. She had no insurance and almost no money. So Lisa Bevere did it using the stock market. That is just one of the wild stories she told us. Today, Lisa and her husband John have given away more than 60 million books in over 150 languages. But they started out broke, praying about whether they could afford a fax machine. In this episode, Lisa sits down with Linda and me to talk about marriage, money, and faith. She shares the moment in the shower that changed her marriage forever. We talk about why men and women were never meant to be enemies. She explains the kind of "giving" message that makes her walk out of the room. And she tells us about the million-dollar gift that fell through, and the surprise that showed up instead. This one is about biblical stewardship, generosity, marriage, and trusting God as your real source.
