Hello, my name is Dorsey Ross, and I am the host of the Dorsey Ross Show. I am a minister and itinerant speaker. I started the Dorsey Ross Show to interview people of faith who have stories of faith and overcoming trials and difficulties. In this podcast, you will hear stories of all kinds. Some will make you laugh, cry, and even say I can connect with that story or that person. I would love to encourage you to check out these stories of faith, encouragement, and inspiration my guests share on the show. I hope these stories give you hope, to get you through your week and your life. Please share them with your family, friends, co-workers, and anyone who needs a little touch of encouragement today.

episode 3: From Army Officer to Teaching Pastor: Scott LaPierre on Financial Wisdom, Homeschooling, and Faith
Have you ever felt inspired by a story of transformation and change? This episode brings you the captivating journey of Scott LaPierre, a former schoolteacher and army officer, to his calling as a teaching pastor at Woodland Christian Church. Drawing from his personal experiences and the lessons learned along the way, Scott introduces us to his "recent book 'Your Finances God's Way'" and how his wife played a pivotal role in his writing process.
This discussion goes far beyond just a fascinating story; it's an eye-opener to the world of financial wisdom. Scott helps us to understand the relevance of financial statements and budgeting in our lives, and the concept of 'worthless purchases' that often drain our resources without adding any value. He takes us through the Stanford Marshmallow experiment, making us realize the power of patience in making wise financial decisions, even sharing a personal anecdote about a surprising deal he got on a new family van!
But it doesn't end there; Scott also shares his insights on financial stewardship and homeschooling. He passionately advocates for parents to involve their children in financial decisions, fostering financial literacy and generosity early on. Revealing why he and his wife chose to have a big family, Scott leaves us with a glimpse of his family life. Should you wish to explore more about his book or seek financial advice, Scott has generously shared his contact details with us. Gear up for an engaging and enlightening conversation weaving faith, finances, and family together.
