  • 225: Pt. 2 The Limitless Potential of Freedom Flow | Gene Newswanger

    225: Pt. 2 The Limitless Potential of Freedom Flow | Gene Newswanger
    May 2 2025
    In this second part, Gene and I continue the conversation. If you missed part 1, you’ll want to go back to catch his story.

    From turning a linen closet into a waiting room (talk about creativity) to embracing a mindset shift that even makes taxes feel like a blessing—Gene’s got a way of helping us see the bigger picture. It's all about flowing with life, not forcing it.

    Think anticipation over rigid expectations, generosity over competition, and connection over contracts. The man has a gift for making things feel lighter, more abundant, and a lot more connected.

    The real gems here? They’re about being fully human—embracing our needs, sharing what we have, and understanding that the magic happens when we’re in a relationship, not just in transactions. It’s less about the “stuff” and more about the energy we put into the world.

    So let’s dive in! This conversation is packed with reminders that life can flow so much smoother when we’re open, generous, and willing to lean into the unexpected. Ready to flow with me? Let’s go!

    BIO RECAP:
    Gene Newswanger, R.Ph., MBA, is a pharmacist, business professor, and creator of the Freedom Flow framework.

    With decades of experience, Gene (aka “Professor Smiley”) empowers individuals and organizations to overcome scarcity mindsets, embrace abundance, and build connections through relational living. Gene’s Freedom Flow model utilizes practical, actionable strategies rooted in ancient wisdom and spiritual principles.

    A few of Gene’s other passions include, getting a “great deal”, enjoying all things peanut butter and telling really bad “Dad jokes”. Gene lives life abundantly in the Freedom Flow with his amazing wife Joy in rural Pennsylvania.

    HIGHLIGHTS:

    1. Heavenly downloads can spark down-to-earth solutions – Divine insights can lead to practical, real-world solutions, like using video monitoring or turning a linen closet into a waiting room.

    2. Being “fully human” is deeper than we think – Embrace your full humanness, connecting not just in professional roles but as a soul with purpose and relationship at the core.

    3. Freedom Flow is already happening—you just didn’t know the name – Generosity and shared abundance are already a part of community life, like GoFundMe campaigns and neighbors helping each other out.

    4. Contracts are boxes, but relationships are the real space-makers – Life’s magic happens beyond the paperwork, in genuine relationships and “covenant living.”

    5. Even paying taxes can be an act of blessing – Shift your mindset to see even the most dreaded tasks, like paying taxes, as opportunities to sow goodness.

    6. Anticipation opens doors, expectations close them – Anticipation is open and curious, while expectations can close us off to possibilities.

    7. When we shift our posture, flow follows – Approach life with openness and flexibility, like an open hand, and watch the flow of connection and opportunity follow.

    8. Sometimes the “more” shows up where you least expect it – Anticipation creates room for surprises, like a small raise turning into extra paid hours.

    9. Giving and receiving are a package deal – Giving and receiving go hand-in-hand. The joy, connection, and positive energy you give come right back to you.

    10. Needing isn’t weakness—it’s purpose – Having needs doesn’t make you less; it’s part of being human and keeps the flow of life moving.

    11. Abundance starts in the heart, not the bank account – True wealth comes from relationships, community, and sharing what you already have, not from material possessions.

    12. A trunk full of baloney can be a blessing – Generosity multiplies. Even something as silly as a trunk full of baloney can be shared and come back to bless you.

  • 224: Pt. 1 Breaking the Back of the Poverty Spirit | Gene Newswanger

    224: Pt. 1 Breaking the Back of the Poverty Spirit | Gene Newswanger
    Apr 24 2025
    I have a new friend to introduce to you, Gene Newswanger. Gene is not only a business professor with the nickname “Professor Smiley” (which totally fits once you hear him talk), but he also has this incredible story of deep transformation—going from a conservative Mennonite upbringing to having these wildly beautiful, intimate experiences with God that are totally outside the box… and yet, so full of truth and joy.In our chats,Gene and I dive into everything from growing up in a tight-knit religious community, to realizing that rules and striving don’t bring freedom—and how one powerful encounter with God completely changed everything for him. He shares what it looked like to step out of “performance Christianity” and into a relationship with God that is full of love, creativity, imagination, and even fun. Yes, FUN with God! Who knew?We talk about how our words create our world, how to stay curious and childlike in our spiritual journey, and how faith and trust are so much more than religious concepts—they’re daily, joyful invitations to walk with our Father, full of awe and wonder.So whether you’re feeling stuck in the “try harder” mindset, longing for deeper connection with God, or just curious about what’s possible when we let go of the old and embrace the more—pull up a chair, grab your favorite drink, and join us. I promise you’re going to be smiling right along with us.Let’s go!BIO:Gene Newswanger, R.Ph., MBA, is a pharmacist, business professor, and creator of the Freedom Flow framework. With decades of experience, Gene (aka “Professor Smiley”) empowers individuals and organizations to overcome scarcity mindsets, embrace abundance, and build connections through relational living.Gene’s Freedom Flow model utilizes practical, actionable strategies rooted in ancient wisdom and spiritual principles.A few of Gene’s other passions include, getting a “great deal”, enjoying all things peanut butter and telling really bad “Dad jokes”. Gene lives life abundantly in the Freedom Flow with his amazing wife Joy in rural Pennsylvania. HIGHLIGHTS:You grow when you say yes to the uncomfortable.Gene opens up by admitting he’s a little nervous being on the show (adorable, right?), but he hits us with this truth bomb: “We expand by our choice.” Growth often means stepping into unfamiliar spaces—and saying yes, even when it’s scary.He was raised in faith... but it was more “theory” than fire.Growing up Mennonite, Gene knew about God, but not with God. It was head knowledge without heart connection—until later, when divine sparks started flying.His first God moments felt weird—and he ignored them.In college, he bumped into Holy Spirit encounters that didn’t fit his box… so he brushed them off. (Relatable much?) Looking back, he sees they were divine breadcrumbs.Ministry happened...even when he didn’t feel qualified.Gene and his family—the adorable “Smiley Crew”—were doing ministry, and one night God just took over. Youth were weeping at the altar, and Gene was like, “Wait, what just happened?” It was a Holy Spirit ambush… in the best way.He wasn’t seeking an encounter—God showed up anyway.Ten years ago, Gene wasn’t striving or hyping anything. He told God, “If I’m not feeling it, I’m not faking it.” That’s exactly when God showed up. No performance, just presence.Same guy, new dimension.His wife noticed it—Gene was still the same man, but now he was walking in a deeper “yes” to God. He wasn’t becoming someone different—he was becoming more of who God made him to be.From finance guy to faith guy.Gene taught financial classes from Dave Ramsey… now he hears God in his dreams. Talk about a shift! His journey moved from spreadsheets and savings to visions, encounters, and Kingdom abundance.A scary nudge out of the box.Gene sensed God leading him to financially help a friend—in a way that made zero logical sense. His inner budget guy panicked… but his spirit whispered “maybe.”Gift vs. transaction—what’s the real investment?When it came time to act, Gene had to confront this: Was he giving out of control or out of love? A gift with no strings attached became the doorway to something much deeper.Breaking free from a poverty mindset took a radical act.Nothing broke that old scarcity story like borrowing money… to give it away. It wasn’t the amount. It was the surrender. That act cracked something wide open in him.“Freedom Flow” wasn’t just a nice idea—it was a spiritual download.Within 24 hours of giving that gift, downloads from Heaven began pouring in. He called it “Freedom Flow”—a divine invitation to live from overflow, not lack.It’s not about giving away money—it’s about relational abundance.Freedom Flow isn’t a “give-it-all-away” program—it’s a lifestyle of trust, connection, and Kingdom-minded generosity. The money isn’t the main character… relationship...

  • 223: Pt. 3 Bringing Peace to the Land | Timothy Bence

    223: Pt. 3 Bringing Peace to the Land | Timothy Bence
    Apr 19 2025
    Part 3 of this fascinating story of redemption! You will be lost if you skipped parts 1 and 2. Enjoy!
    PURE GOLD:80-90% of people are separated from the land of their inheritance. This limits access to the fullness of God’s blessing, and the open heaven for rich encounters with the Lord. Ask the Lord if your family was taken from the land, or was the land taken from your family.

    BIO RECAP:
    Timothy Bence is a forerunning Kingdom of God builder, and has learned to walk in true sonship. He helps construct a foundation for others to build on, and instructs many to walk in their gifts, calling, and grace by being a part of the living body of Christ, the Ekklesia.

    He lives with a promise from the Lord, and a growing desire to see whole cities and nations saved where every knee bows and every tongue confesses that Jesus is Lord.

    HIGHLIGHTS:– Finding a man of peace on each side of the Israeli / Palestinian border amidst the bombing and gunfire.

    – Asking for a new memorial to be written because the last time His name was written it was written by a Roman, and put on a cross. It called him the King of the Jews. But he's not just the King of the Jews. He's the King of kings.

    – Miraculous things start happening when you find the land that’s calling your name! You begin to steward over the things He’s calling you to steward over. Especially the presence of God.
    – Everybody that I know is praying for a move of God to come. But what if we don't know how to steward over the presence, when it comes we'll ruin it. Because we'll do something that dishonors the King of kings, or dishonors one another, and he'll take up the cause of the righteous, and he'll protect and uphold the rights of the widow and the orphan and the poor and the strangers among us.– If we despise anything that he despises, our field might stop producing fruit, not because it's not capable of it, but because God will require repentance before it will spring to life again.– The land will reflect to you the condition of your heart. If you're right with God, it will be a bountiful field. If you're not, it will let you know. This is how it's supposed to work from the beginning. This is why the garden was important.

    – This is really important. To understand that when you find your field. One of the highest and most fun things to do is to inquire of God about details on the field, what he wants, what he likes. If something's there, grow it out. If it's not there, plant it or build it.– You have to name it. The field really does come alive when you name it correctly, just like a child coming out of a womb. If I name it correctly, it's because I've discovered its creative purpose and design. So I don't want to call it something just because I like the name. I want to call it what God says it is. If it's a field of olives, then I'm going to give it a name that reflects that. If it's going to be a city, then I want to call out the name of that city. You want to name your field, what God says its inherent purpose is. Then that gives you a clue on what you're going to steward over all the days of your life.– In the book of Acts Barnabus was the first to sell property and give the money to the apostles. But this was actually an act of repentance for owning a field he wasn’t supposed to have as a Levite. He would have had to find the heirs of the original land owner to sell it back into their family to restore their inheritance and make the land right again with God.
