  • TBTS #266: Fasting from Financial Chaos: Reclaiming Financial Habits with Sam Fatzinger

    TBTS #266: Fasting from Financial Chaos: Reclaiming Financial Habits with Sam Fatzinger
    Feb 23 2026

    Lent invites us to slow down, simplify, and take an honest look at the habits that shape our lives, including the way we handle money. In this episode, Brooke welcomes Sam Fatzinger for a conversation on financial discipline, generational challenges, and the spiritual renewal that can come from reordering our priorities.

    Sam reflects on how money habits are formed in childhood, the power of mentoring within families, and the importance of unity and communication for couples preparing for marriage.

    The discussion also highlights the role of community support, the freedom that comes from delayed gratification, and the deeper peace that emerges when finances are properly ordered with faith and purpose.
