- During Jesus’ ministry on earth, tables—and the meals shared around them—were an important part of his school of discipleship. Professor and author Robert Karris writes, “In Luke’s Gospel, Jesus is either going to a meal, at a meal or coming from a meal.” New Testament scholar N. T. Wright says, “When Jesus himself wanted to explain to his disciples what his forthcoming death was all about, he didn’t give them a theory, he gave them a meal.” When Jesus invites his followers to the table, the meal is open to all—men and women, slave and free, Jew and Greek. Jesus’ […]
- Every human sees the world through their own unique and distinct cultural lens. But what does that mean? What is a cultural lens and how does that affect how we interact with our neighbors and our brothers and sisters in the faith? How do I know what my own cultural lens is and how it differs from others? How can we as a USMB family seek to understand each other better when our cultural lenses are very different? There is a significant cue in what John encounters in Revelation 7 and the implications that come out of it. After John […]
- With 30 churches and almost 10,000 members in three countries, Grace Tabernacle Ministries (GTM) has grown significantly since its humble beginning in Kenya with seven Congolese refugees in 2009. Founding pastor Emmanuel Musinga, who now pastors in Indianapolis, Indiana, borrowed $300 from a former primary school teacher to build a roof for the fledgling church. “The Bible says, ‘Don’t despise the small beginnings,’” Musinga says. “Just listen to the voice of God, and follow the passion that God has given to you.” Musinga’s passion is for church planting, leadership development and children’s education, and today, the church he founded has […]

USMB's Christian Leader Podcast features honest and practical conversations for anyone following Jesus—in life, ministry and everything in-between. Hosted by Matt Ehresman.
October 1, 2026
Returning guests Matt Bell and Jon Wiebe join the podcast to talk about money as a discipleship issue. Matt is an author and speaker on biblical money management, and Jon has spent 30 years at MB Foundation.
The conversation centers on Matt's new book, Starting Strong, written for dating, engaged and newly married couples. He explains why spenders so often marry savers and why a budget is about having more, not less. He also lays out his "uncommon" order for money: give first, then save, then invest, then spend, and stay out of the bondage of debt along the way. He adds practical targets for giving, saving and housing costs, plus straightforward advice on getting out of debt and starting to invest.
Jon also shares news of MB Foundation's new three-book children's series: God Owns It All, Trust in the Lord, and Rich in Good Works. The series was funded by an estate gift, and the foundation's goal is to get it free of charge to every Mennonite Brethren family with children ages 12 and under. You can find Bell's free budgeting tools and cash-flow guidelines at MattAboutMoney.com. The children's books are at mbfoundation.com/childrensbooks, and more resources from Matt are at mbfoundation.com/championingstewardship.
