Have you ever noticed that money is a tender spot in a lot of relationships? Maybe it even causes tension for you. In this week’s podcast, Kathi chats with very special guest Ron Deal of Family Life Today about ways to successfully resolve some of the conflicts related to spending and have a stronger, more unified family.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Some key questions to ask when strong emotions come up related to money
• Contributing factors that make merging finances particularly difficult for blended families
• How a togetherness agreement can help you build a strong foundation financially and relationally
