In this episode of Partners in Ministry, host Dan Smith welcomes Lyle Miller, stewardship consultant with Everence, for a special “Get to Know You” conversation about faith, finances, generosity, and ministry partnership.

Lyle shares how Everence helps individuals, families, congregations, and ministries integrate their faith and values into financial decisions. From comprehensive financial planning and charitable giving tools to donor advised funds, charitable gift annuities, property gifts, and unique assets, this conversation highlights practical ways Christians can live generously and support the Kingdom.

You’ll also hear an inspiring story about how a collection of antique farm toys became a charitable gift that continues tobless ministries, along with personal reflections from Lyle about family, stewardship, gratitude, and the joy of helping people give more generously.

This conversation is a powerful reminder that generosity is not just about money. It is about faith, purpose, legacy, and helping others change the world through the decisions we make.
