Success in Marriage. Success as a manager of the money God's entrusted to you. That's what we're after. If you want that too, then you'll love the show. Learn to simplify, automate, multiply & get full control of the money God's entrusted you with. So you can quit stressing about it, pay off debt & get on with your God-given purpose. Oh and we have a different take on money than most financial experts. We aren't going to judge you for your past mistakes and we haven't forgotten the pain of being broke so we can relate. We believe simple always beats complicated. And we believe money isn't the goal, but is simply a tool that can be used to fulfill what God has called us to do. We help you spend less time thinking about money while getting better results. The Seed Time Money podcast is where we (Bob & Linda Lotich) share the mindsets, beliefs and strategies we used to go from being debt-ridden and broke to: - paying off $400k of debt - eliminating all guilt and shame with money - building multiple streams of passive income - honoring God with our finances - learning how to save & invest wisely - having financial unity in our marriage - giving $1 million by ag…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T18:22:14.174059+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/seedtime-with-bob-and-linda-lotich-65777"},"episode":{"title":"He Burned Out as a Pastor (Then Discovered this…) w/Mark Buchanan","slug":"he-burned-out-as-a-pastor-then-discovered-this-w-mark-buchanan","published_at":"2026-05-01T12:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/seedtime-with-bob-and-linda-lotich-65777/he-burned-out-as-a-pastor-then-discovered-this-w-mark-buchanan","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/seedtime-with-bob-and-linda-lotich-65777","url":"https://seedtime.libsyn.com/he-burned-out-as-a-pastor-then-discovered-this-wmark-buchanan","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/seedtime/He_Burned_Out_as_a_Pastor_Then_Discovered_this_w_Mark_Buchanan.mp3?dest-id=691991","summary":"Most of us have quietly convinced ourselves that busy-ness is a badge of honor. Mark Buchanan believed the same thing — until it almost cost him his health, his marriage, and his connection with God. And what he found on the other side of that is something the modern church has almost entirely stopped talking about. In this conversation, Linda and I sit down with Mark Buchanan — author of The Rest of God, God Walk, and his new historical fiction novel What Is Left of the Night — to talk about why busyness kills the heart, what Sabbath really means as more than a day, how walking is a deeply spiritual practice woven all through Scripture. His book The Rest of God is what started our practice of monthly sabbaticals 13 years ago, and this conversation took us somewhere we didn't expect. WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE Here's a little of what we cover in this episode: Why Mark nearly burned out as a pastor — and how discovering Sabbath saved his marriage and his ministry Why Sabbath isn't just about a day of the week — it's an attitude and a way of seeing everything The phrase \"busyness kills the heart\" and what it actually looks like in your everyday life How Bob and Linda's 13-year practice of monthly sabbaticals grew out of one book — and led to a full year off The spiritual practice of walking, and the surprising number of times it shows up in Scripture Mark's new historical fiction novel about a French village that protected 2,500 Jews during WWII with zero casualties What connects Sabbath, walking, and a village that simply refused to live by the world's rules RESOURCES MENTIONED Mark Buchanan's Books: The Rest of God God Walk What Is Left of the Night DISCLAIMER Obligatory legal disclaimer: I'm a financial educator, not your financial advisor, investment advisor, tax…","meta_description":"Most of us have quietly convinced ourselves that busy-ness is a badge of honor.
