Am I the Only One Losing Sleep Over Money?
Season 7 Episode 146
In this opening episode of a brand-new series, Ralph tackles a topic that weighs heavy on so many hearts: financial anxiety and the silent battles we fight behind closed doors. Whether you're lying awake at night worrying about bills, overwhelmed by unexpected expenses, or feeling pressure to maintain appearances, you’re not alone—and you’re not without hope. Ralph unpacks the truth behind that lonely question many have asked in the dark: “Am I the only one losing sleep over this?” As he reminds us, God never intended for us to carry our burdens alone, especially the stress of money.

Through biblical encouragement, personal reflection, and one simple but powerful action step, Ralph shows listeners how to take that first step toward freedom: breaking the silence. By identifying one trusted person to share your struggle with, you begin to release shame and invite community, prayer, and support into your financial life. If you’ve been holding it all in and trying to manage money stress on your own, this episode offers the grace and courage to speak up, reach out, and start healing in faith.
