Episode 75: 'The Lie About Abundance & The Truth That Set Me Free' with Chad Hufford
Real wealth isn’t “more money”—it’s margin, mission, and the freedom to answer God’s call.Financial planner and author Chad Hufford joins Chad Potts to unpack true wealth: faith, family, fitness, and finance working together. We talk stewardship vs. striving, building margin, practicing gratitude and generosity, and why more money can’t fix poor habits. Chad also shares the near-death experience that changed his life, why discipline beats motivation, and how to aim your money at God’s purpose so you can live with freedom and impact.Abundance vs. more: Money is a tool, not the target. Aim it at God’s purpose.Four pillars: Faith, family, fitness, finance—build them together, not in silos.Margin matters: Leave the edges of your field (Leviticus 19) in time, budget, and energy.Gratitude & generosity: Treat both as daily practices, not feelings.Discipline > motivation: Do the right things consistently, even when you don’t feel like it.Stop doubling down: You can’t fix poor stewardship with more income.True wealth: Freedom from debt and dependence on a paycheck so you can say yes to God’s call.Resources Mentioned:Crown Financial (Larry Burkett) vs Financial Peace University (Dave Ramsey)Book: Simple Wealth, Inevitable Wealth by Nick MurrayScripture: John 10:10; Leviticus 19:9–10; Psalm 139:13–16Chad Hufford’s book: Forging Financial Freedom (Amazon)To connect with Chad Hufford, visit: https://www.veritasalaska.com/team-member/chad-huffordTo connect with Chad Potts (host):www.manalivecoaching.comor email:
