The “new normal” seems to be a catch phrase for these days of adjustment to an environment of physical distancing. On today’s “Let’s Talk Money” show, Dave and Reb look at ways of intentionally creating a “new normal” in your finances especially in how Covid-19 and the lock-downs have affected so much of our personal lives and global economy.
But even with the circumstances changing, they want to encourage listeners that Biblical principles still hold true, as do wise financial spending and savings practises.
“Our circumstances have certainly changed in many, many cases,” Dave says. “But God’s word and biblical financial principles were true before the pandemic and still are true now.”
They encourage listeners to prayerfully consider their situation and bring their requests and petitions to God.
“Creating your new normal in your life and finances may mean not doing activities you once did because you no longer have the money,” Reb says. “But perhaps your new normal will be giving more as you recognize more people in need.”
“What your life looks like going forward will not likely look like it did, and it won’t necessarily look like your neighbours either.”
Dave and Reb agree that making these intentional decisions will take prayer, thought and many conversations within your family.
