Have you ever wondered why financial breakthrough feels so close yet so far? Bob and Linda Lotich reveal that God is constantly testing us with money—and most of us don't even realize it's happening.   In this eye-opening conversation, they break down the three distinct money tests every believer faces, how to identify which one you're in right now, and what God is trying to teach you through it.     What You'll Learn: The Three Tests - The Struggling Test - When you have less than you think you need The Surplus Test - When extra money comes your way The Stable...

SeedTime with Bob and Linda Lotich

In all of Scripture, there are only a handful of times when God explicitly tells us to "remember" something. Each time, it's attached to something vital—communion, Christ's resurrection, where we've fallen. But there's one verse where God commands us to remember a principle that much of the church seems to have forgotten entirely.   In this episode, Bob and Linda explore 2 Corinthians 9:6: "Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop, but the one who plants generously will get a generous crop."       Key Topics Discussed: Why This...

Is our money system actually working against faithful stewardship?   In this episode, Bob and Linda tackle a conversation almost no one in the church is having—but one every Christian steward needs to understand.   Bob opens with a shocking reality: $100 in 1971 now buys about $12 worth of stuff. Same number. Far less value. So what happened?   From there, the conversation zooms out to explore inflation, fiat currency, and why Scripture repeatedly condemns unequal weights and measures. Is our modern money system quietly violating biblical principles—and if so, what...

SeedTime with Bob and Linda Lotich

When money is tight, a budget can feel like punishment. Like proof you messed up… or worse, proof your faith is weak.   But what if that’s backwards?   In this episode, Bob and Linda flip the script and show why a budget isn’t evidence of failure—it’s evidence of faith in action. Drawing from Scripture, psychology, and real-life stories, they unpack why budgeting is actually a weapon God gives us in seasons of financial pressure.   If you’ve ever thought, “If God would just fix this, why do I need a spreadsheet?”—this conversation is for you.   ...

Get Your Spirit Back: Breaking Free from the Lies Holding You Back - with Pastor Earl McClellan What if the biggest thing holding you back isn’t your circumstances… but the lies you’ve believed about yourself?   In this powerful, deeply honest conversation, Bob & Linda sit down with Pastor Earl McClellan, lead pastor of Shoreline City Church and author of Get Your Spirit Back, to talk about negative self-talk, fear, calling, identity, and what it really looks like to walk by faith when you’re scared.   This isn’t a hype-up, “just believe harder”...

SeedTime with Bob and Linda Lotich

A viral clip claims something shocking: any pastor who gets paid by a church will eventually be corrupted by money.   It’s a bold accusation — and honestly, harder to dismiss than you might think.   In this episode, Bob and Linda watch the clip, slow it down, and wrestle with the real tension underneath the claim. Is the modern church system broken? Does money inevitably compromise spiritual leadership? Or is this another example of painting faithful people with too broad a brush?   This conversation isn’t defensive or dismissive. It’s thoughtful, biblical,...

What if obedience doesn’t lead to the breakthrough you expected?   Andy and Serena Ryan did “the right things.” They took a biblical money course. They committed to tithing. They tried to steward their finances faithfully. And then everything fell apart.   They lost income. Fell behind on rent. Needed food pantries and church assistance. And eventually—after months of praying for a miracle—they packed up their family and moved into an RV in someone else’s backyard.   This episode isn’t a prosperity story. It’s a surrender story.   In one of the most...

Most Christians agree that materialism is bad… but few of us have ever connected the clutter in our garages to the condition of our hearts.   In this episode, Bob sits down with Joshua Becker (author of Uncluttered Faith and founder of BecomingMinimalist.com) to explore a provocative idea: what if consumerism isn’t just a money issue—but a spiritual one?   Joshua makes the case that the things we own—and the things we want—may be quietly choking out our fruitfulness, distracting us from God’s best, and stealing time, energy, and joy we didn’t realize we were...

Is God Warning Us About AI? The Biblical Case for Preparing Now! Before every major disruption in Scripture—famine, flood, exile—God warned His people first. Those who listened didn’t just survive… they thrived.   So what if we’re living in one of those moments right now?   In this episode, Bob and Linda wrestle with a question many Christians are quietly asking: What does the rise of AI mean for our work, our finances, and our faith—and how should God’s people respond?   This isn’t fear-based. It’s faith-filled preparation.   From Joseph...

What if wealth isn’t about luck, connections, or hustle—but about how you think?   In today’s episode, we unpack a fascinating story of a 17-year-old dishwasher who spent a decade working inside a high-end country club alongside ultra-wealthy members. What he learned completely dismantled common assumptions about rich people—and surprisingly, many of his lessons line up directly with Scripture.   Bob and Linda walk through 7 mindset shifts that separate people who grow wealth from those who stay stuck, and why renewing your mind around money may be the most biblical...

More Episodes
In all of Scripture, there are only a handful of times when God explicitly tells us to "remember" something. Each time, it's attached to something vital—communion, Christ's resurrection, where we've fallen. But there's one verse where God commands us to remember a principle that much of the church seems to have forgotten entirely.
 
In this episode, Bob and Linda explore 2 Corinthians 9:6: "Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop, but the one who plants generously will get a generous crop."
 
 
 
Key Topics Discussed:
Why This Verse Matters
  • How God uses the word "remember" throughout Scripture for critical truths
  • The context of 2 Corinthians 8-9 and its focus on generous giving
  • Why this principle of sowing and reaping has been pushed aside by many believers
 
The Enemy's Strategy
  • How biblical principles get twisted and weaponized
  • The 1980s prosperity gospel backlash and its lasting impact
  • Two ditches to avoid: manipulation on one side, scarcity mindset on the other
 
Getting Your Heart Right
  • The crucial difference between giving to people versus giving to the Lord
  • How to avoid being manipulated while still embracing biblical generosity
  • Why you can love your church and still have questions
 
The Multiplication Principle
  • From Genesis to today: God's design for abundance
  • The apple seed illustration that proves God's multiplication DNA
  • How one butterfly's wings can literally change the world
  • Why quiet faithfulness often shapes culture more than loud voices
 
What Happens When We Forget
  • Generosity becomes optional instead of formative
  • Fear replaces faith
  • We settle for what we can maintain in our own strength
  • Our expectations of God begin to shrink
 
Quotable Moments:
"God doesn't command that we remember something that is trivial."
"When you give to the Lord, that's when you can see the harvest. When you are giving to a person, they can't give you a harvest."
"It's easy to be a voice... but there are so many people quietly shaping the culture of their nation."
"The butterfly can flap its wings here in Tennessee and literally over in Australia there can be a hurricane—that is how God created things."
 
 
Challenge:
Don't let the enemy's twisting of Scripture cause you to forget what God told you to remember. Sowing and reaping isn't just about farming or fundraising—it's about how God designed His entire creation to multiply. Every smile at the coffee shop, every dollar given in faith, every child raised in love has exponential Kingdom impact.
 
 
The question isn't whether God's multiplication principle is real. The question is: are you partnering with it or have you forgotten it entirely?
