Is tax season something you approach with dread instead of confidence? I know how the thought of preparing taxes can stir up anxiety and even shame. In this episode of Financially Confident Christian, I share how to replace fear with actionable steps. We’ll explore naming your fears, making estimates, and creating a practical “if we owe” plan that brings clarity. Isaiah 26:3 reminds us that perfect peace comes from steadfast trust in God, even in stressful financial seasons.
In Episode 55, “How Do I Make the Most of My Tax Refund?”, we looked at wise stewardship when unexpected money arrives. Building on that, this episode focuses on how to handle the opposite scenario—when fear of owing taxes takes over. I share a real‑life story of a client who struggled with tax anxiety and how breaking the process into manageable steps changed everything. I highlight strategies like meeting with professionals and setting up systems to prevent future shocks. This episode closes with a reflection: peace isn’t found in avoiding taxes, but in trusting God and preparing wisely
