Episode Details

Make more money—it’s one of the most common goals in business, and one of the most misunderstood. From the very first moments of this episode of The Faithful Agent Podcast, Garrett Maroon challenges the idea that financial growth alone equals success. Joined by financial planner and tax expert Leland Gross, Garrett reframes what it truly means to make more money as a Christian in real estate: not through greed, comparison, or pressure, but through stewardship, alignment, and obedience.

This episode invites listeners to ask a deeper question: What if your business isn’t just a source of income, but a divine assignment? Leland shares how biblical principles of money management, contentment, and integrity can transform not only your finances, but your peace, priorities, and purpose. For the real estate agent seeking growth without compromise, this conversation offers both clarity and conviction.

This discussion is especially timely for the christian realtor navigating the real estate grind—the pressure to outperform, out-earn, and constantly scale. Garrett and Leland unpack the dangers of comparison, pride, and defining success by numbers alone. Instead, they present a framework for building a faith driven business that honors God while still pursuing excellence. 

You’ll hear insight on:

• Why making more money is not the same as building true wealth
• How biblical stewardship reshapes your relationship with income
• Why ambition must be balanced with contentment and obedience
• How comparison distorts purpose and leads to burnout
• Why wise financial systems bring clarity, freedom, and long-term peace

For those building realtor systems that support sustainable growth, this episode provides a faith-centered approach to finances that goes beyond spreadsheets and strategies.

Success is not merely what shows up in your bank account—it’s how you steward what God has entrusted to you. When your pursuit to make more money is rooted in service, generosity, and obedience, financial growth becomes a byproduct of faithfulness rather than the primary goal.

This conversation speaks directly to agents who feel torn between ambition and alignment. Garrett and Leland show that you do not have to choose between honoring God and growing financially. A faith driven business does not reject money—it puts money in its rightful place. When stewardship replaces striving, your finances begin to reflect purpose rather than pressure.

If you’ve ever hit a financial milestone and still felt empty, or wondered whether your pursuit of income was costing you peace, this episode will bring clarity. You’ll walk away with a renewed understanding of what it truly means to make more money without losing your soul, your values, or your calling.
