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":"Should Christians Invest in Evil Companies?","slug":"should-christians-invest-in-evil-companies","published_at":"2026-07-17T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/seedtime-with-bob-and-linda-lotich-65777/should-christians-invest-in-evil-companies","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/seedtime-with-bob-and-linda-lotich-65777","url":"https://seedtime.libsyn.com/should-christians-invest-in-evil-companies","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/seedtime/Should_Christians_Invest_in_Evil_Companies_.mp3?dest-id=691991","summary":"Most of us have no idea what our retirement money is actually funding. A few years ago I started wondering if some of mine was supporting things I would never support on purpose. So in this episode, I answer a question I get all the time. Should Christians invest in companies that conflict with their faith? I walk through the two main approaches: biblically responsible investing and buying in to influence a company from the inside. I share the question I ask before buying any individual stock. And I reveal the spending blind spot that might matter even more than your portfolio. Strong believers land on both sides of this one, so we're not going to pretend it's simple. If you enjoyed this, we'd love to send you a free copy of our book. You just cover shipping.

What We Cover Here's a little of what we cover in this episode: The uncomfortable question I finally had to ask about my own investments Two completely opposite approaches Christians take (both from strong believers) The one question I ask before buying any individual stock Why boycotting a stock might matter less than you think The everyday habit that funds companies far more than any shareholder does The story behind the shirt I'm wearing and the 50 cent wage that inspired it Bible Verses Mentioned Romans 3:23 Resources Mentioned 10x Investing course Real Money Method course Disclaimer Obligatory legal disclaimer: I'm a financial educator, not your financial advisor, investment advisor, tax pro, or lawyer.
