Who really owns your money? What does God expect us to do with the resources He has entrusted to us? And how can we experience greater peace in a world filled with financial uncertainty?

In this episode of The Clark Report, we explore Five Bible Truths About Money that can transform the way Christians think about wealth, possessions, generosity, and financial responsibility.

Drawing from Scripture, we discuss why everything ultimately belongs to God, how He enables us to earn a living, why generosity matters, and what it means to trust Him to meet our needs. We also look at the importance of thankfulness, wise budgeting, and refusing to let money control our lives.

Through the remarkable biblical account of God's provision in Samaria, we see a powerful reminder that even in times of hardship, God is able to provide.

What happens when two people from very different backgrounds say “I DO—but soon discover they DON'T see marriage the same way?

George and Tondra Gregory know the answer firsthand.

They’ve been married for 31 years, but the early years of their marriage were rocky. George was raised in a two-parent home, while Tondra was raised by a single mother. Those very different experiences shaped the way they thought about communication, conflict, expectations and marriage—and created obstacles they had to learn to overcome.

Today, George and Tondra are experienced marriage coaches, international ministry leaders, and chaplains to the Los Angeles Chargers of the NFL. Their journey has given them a passion for helping couples build stronger, Christ-centered marriages.

Their new faith-based book, "The Marriage Game Plan: Developing a Winning Strategy for Marital Success," uses the language of sports to offer practical wisdom for couples.

What happens when an unexpected pregnancy changes everything?

In this episode of The Clark Report, John and Val Blanding Clark take an honest look at unplanned pregnancy, pregnancy resource centers, and the support available to women facing difficult decisions.

We talk with Wendy Bonano, who oversees two faith-based pregnancy medical clinics in North Carolina. Wendy explains what these clinics actually do, why they exist, and how she and her staff respond to distorted claims and criticisms being made about pregnancy resource centers.

But this episode is about much more than the controversy.

We also meet Jordan, a former client of one of the centers, who shares her personal experience of facing an unplanned pregnancy and receiving support at the clinic.

Jordan is now the mother of a sweet 4-year-old daughter—and her little girl joins us during the interview!

Jordan puts the experience in perspective when she says: “It wasn’t just a pregnancy; it was a whole person.”

We also discuss the importance of ongoing support after a child is born, the emotional impact of abortion, and the hope and healing that Jesus Christ offers to those who carry the pain of a past abortion.
