Dichotomy with Shannon
Dichotomy with Shannon explores the tension most Christian women feel but never say out loud: loving Jesus and wanting more money, too. After 17 years in radio and television, Shannon Rose McVey traded the mic for ministry of a different kind, helping faith-driven women dismantle the money beliefs keeping them stuck and rebuild a relationship with wealth that's rooted in scripture, not shame. Each episode blends biblical truth, nervous system science, and real talk about identity, money, and what it actually looks like to receive. If you've ever wondered whether you can love God and want a Range Rover, you're in the right place.
