United States3 days ago - Episode 1 of S2 was great!!
So glad to hear the show is back for season 2! Episode 1 was incredible. I’m so glad she shared about the act of tithing! It is a principle that truly works! I began 7 years ago when I struggled financially. I gave it a shot and have not stopped. I always have more than I need and have paid off thousands in debt while tithing. I’ll be debt free in 5 months and it all started with taking a chance on God! Thank you for sharing this!
