Sound of Freedom: A Conversation with Tim Ballard on Ending Child Sex Slavery

07/28/23 • 70 min

This riveting episode brings you close to a real-life hero, Tim Ballard, who's been in the trenches fighting the abhorrent issue of child sex slavery for 20 years. His incredible journey forms the backbone of the summer blockbuster, "Sound of Freedom".
Child sex slavery is a chilling reality that this movie dares to tackle head-on and its role in inspiring brand new legislation aimed at locating missing children. Now, more than ever, our children are vulnerable to online predators exploiting social media. Tim enlightens us on this alarming landscape, and how we, as parents, might be lured into a false sense of security regarding our children's online safety.
Tim shares stories of his mission's success, rescuing 7,000 women and children, and emphasizes the importance of aftercare for these survivors. The conversation also touches upon the portrayal of his story by Jim Caviezel, in "Sound of Freedom". Join us to understand the faith-filled journey of casting Caviezel, the controversy surrounding the movie, and the massive movement now underway surrounding the movie's release.

Preparing Your Kids for Monetary Success: A Chat with Chad Willardson

Are you ready to arm your children with the crucial skill of financial literacy? Join us as we pick the brain of Chad Willardson, founder, and president of Pacific Capital and author of four books focused on finance and literacy. A parent of five, Chad's unique approach to teaching his children about money is both unconventional and inspiring. From opening bank accounts at a tender age to forgoing the traditional forms of allowance, Chad offers a fresh perspective on preparing children for financial success.
Our conversation quickly turns to the importance of instilling the concepts of cash flow, taxes, and the value of earning in children. We explore Chad’s interesting home economy model, designed to give kids an early start in financial skills. We also discuss his innovative company, Gravy Stack, which ingeniously combines banking with games, making financial education fun for kids. On a deeper level, we discuss how to balance wealth protection and generosity, a principle Chad strongly advocates for.
As we engage further, we delve into the crucial topic of legacy. How can we leave a legacy that outlasts us? How should we encourage our kids to embrace financial literacy? Chad not only shares his insights on these matters but also brings a personal touch with a powerful message from his grandmother about the role of relationships in legacy. We conclude by examining ways to translate financial literacy into real-life experiences for kids and the significance of leaving an enduring legacy. Join us on this enlightening journey as we unpack the keys to raising financially-competent children.
