 Welcome to Faithfully Invested, where we explore God's blueprint for leadership, marriage, and mission. We are your host, Stacy Jo Coffee-Thorne, and my amazing husband, Allen Thorne. We are leaders, parents, dog lovers also, but most importantly, we're a husband and wife team. Who are navigating life with Jesus at the center, with Jesus at the center.

Yeah. Amazing husband. Amazing husband. Did Jesus tell you to say that he might have, he may have. You're pretty fan. You're pretty fantastic. Yourself. Could not ask for a better wife. And I'm not , just saying that, but when she says dog lovers, you know, she can't sell herself. Sure. She loves her pups pretty well too.

I do. But I think I got her a little bit on that. We have two fantastic little Shih tzus, 

 Princess Leia and Little Baby Lilo who. I really think, I think they believe they run the house. I think they believe that. Yes. And put 'em out in the backyard. And they're fully confident that they run the neighborhood.

Yes. So much so that we've dubbed them The Bossy Posse. Yes. The Bossy Posse. Right. And it doesn't matter if there's anything at the front door their other identity is the distraction faction. And don't let that leave blow across the driveway. 'cause they're at the front door. Mm-hmm. And they're letting us know that.

So yeah, we, well, don't forget, don't discount all of the Amazon drivers that they have saved us from, they have saved us several times from Amazon drivers. And and then there's the cat. Oh, yes, Tinkerbell. Tinkerbell, Tinkerbells got tenure here. She does. And she's you know, she's a cat, so she actually does think she runs the house.

But you know. Yeah, well, you know, but besides that we're parents to four incredible adult children. Oh yeah. The kids. Yeah, the kids, yeah. But don't forget them. But let's just say, I mean, we've seen a lot of life. I mean, we've walked through some major challenges in our time together. We have celebrated some incredible victories, and we have done our best.

Most of the time, I would say, to choose joy through those challenges, progress, not perfection. That's right. Most of the time, right? Yeah. We've we've walked through so many challenges. We quit calling 'em problems, right. Because we're, we're overcomers. Mm-hmm. We don't face problems. We, we overcome challenges.

Yes. Because we are more than conquerors. Through him who loves us. And that's, that's Jesus. Mm-hmm. He loves us, man. He does love us, man. That's what an amazing journey It's been discovering the love of Christ. Yeah. But for sure, a little bit about myself is I've spent over 20 years in corporate construction leadership.

Currently a safety manager in South Florida with corporate construction, and I also serve as a recovery pastor helping brothers and sisters rebuild their lives through faith in Christ the power of the Father, Yahweh Yeshua, the son and the, the spirit of truth who brings us all the truth, the Holy Spirit faith in, in.

God. And is there any other way? Mm-hmm. No. No, there's not. Let me, let me give you that. Blessed assurance that there is no other way. His name is Jesus. Mm-hmm. And also I am grateful to say that. I mean two time number one bestselling author. Yes. With United Men of Honor. Mm-hmm. We did a book just last year Fit the Fight where I was the I was a co visionary author with my buddy Kenny Hobbs.

With 22 other men. And then the year before I was a, I was an author in navigating the Storm with United Men of Honor with I think 25, maybe 26 other guys. Really an honor to write that. That's still, still surreal to. To say and, and even think that I'm a two time number one bestselling author. And that's paved a way for me to get my own book out there.

Mm-hmm. The Holy Spirit. I'd like to say that he wrote reviving Recovery Unbound through my heart and with my Hands. Yeah. Very grateful for Reviving Recovery. Unbound a new angle. It's his angle. Mm-hmm. God says that it's his recovery for the revival that's here and the revival that's here.

I liked it. I said, Lord, I like that. That's got a good ring to it. He is like, stick around, there's more. And so reviving recovery is about speaking life. Holy Spirit, journaling and inner healing practices. I'm sure as faithfully invested goes on. We'll, we'll be talking about those fundamentals, I'm sure, but it's actually developed into a ministry that I've been honored to serve alongside him in.

Yeah. And so as we get to Steward our. Participants. Yeah. We get to, yeah, we get to, we get to work together. That's, that's it. And we get to steward our participants. And this is all about stewardship. So you know, I'm excited. But a little bit about me. I am a business owner. I have a company called Freedom Support Solutions, and we are a bookkeeping and daily money management firm, as well as the Association of Christian Business women.

And so my heart is really to help people steward, there's that word again. Steward their businesses, their finances, and their faith with wisdom and confidence. And I have, I'm gonna say that I too just became a number one bestselling author within the last couple months. Yeah. Women world leaders. Yeah.

With women world leaders. Kimberly Hobbes, restoration. Restoration. Another wonderful book by women world leaders. Yeah. Right. So good. It was so much fun. Absolutely. So whether you're a, a business leader, a ministry leader, or just someone who wants to get your life aligned with God's plan. Mm-hmm. That's so important.

It is. That's, that's so nice. I wanna say it twice. All right. Are you someone who wants to get your life aligned with God's plan? Mm-hmm. If so are, do you, are you ready to tear down idols and build up identity? Mm-hmm. I love that. If, if so, then you're in the right place. Yes, you are. And y'all we're not here just to talk at you.

So this is, we want this to be a conversation. We want you to be able to grab your coffee, grab your Bible, maybe even grab your spouse. I'm grabbing his arm right now. First time I've been grabbed today. And we're gonna dive into the invested framework, God's blueprint for our lives and for our purpose. So if you're driving don't worry about your coffee, and if you're driving, don't grab your spouse while you're driving.
