As summer shines bright, it’s a perfect time to pause, reflect, and realign. Midyear often lands us in the messy middle—but what if we brought a little Christmas joy to the Summer season?

In this refreshed replay, we’re unwrapping a “Christmas in July” perspective to help you revisit your financial goals with renewed clarity and purpose.

Whether the year has flown by or felt heavy with unexpected turns, this conversation offers a thoughtful, Christ-centered reset to help you finish strong!

In this episode, John discusses:

  • Why midyear is a powerful checkpoint for financial reflection
  • The importance of revising plans in light of real life
  • How to keep your goals aligned with faith and purpose
  • Three practical steps to reflect, revise, and refocus

Key Takeaways:

  • Taking time to reflect midyear gives you space to acknowledge progress, recognize what still needs attention, and reconnect with the heart behind your goals.
  • Revising your financial plans allows you to adapt to life’s inevitable changes while staying grounded in a purpose that reflects your current season and needs.
  • Realigning your goals with your faith and God’s greater story helps ensure your financial journey is not just productive, but also deeply meaningful and spiritually aligned.
  • Simplifying and refocusing your financial priorities can clear the clutter, ease the pressure, and help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and peace.

“We want to leave room for God to move. We want to plan. God asks us to plan, but not so much that we box him out.”
