Have you ever pulled out a loaf of bread to make a sandwich, only to find that it's covered in nasty green mold? Moldy bread is only good for the trash can - it's a disappointment and a waste. The shelf life of bread is very short, and Jesus warns us not to work for food that spoils. In John 6:27, Jesus tells us not to work for the food that perish…

Maslow says that we need our physical needs met first. Love, esteem, and self-actualization become possible once our basic needs are met. From Maslow’s viewpoint, we all start at the bottom, checking the box for each level in order to move up toward self-actualization. His premise is that if our basic needs are not met we will be too consumed with …

Oh give us help against the adversary For deliverance by man is vain. Psalm 108:12 “We live in a love story set in the midst of a world at war,” John Eldredge so eloquently observes. There is an epic clash between two kingdoms: the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of God. The apostle Paul reminds us that our struggle is not against flesh and blo…

"Create." This is the label on the button that I just pushed in Google Docs to open up a blank page to write this article. God is a creator. “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.” Later in the story with the setting of the landscape of the earth with all of its plants and animals, God says, “Let Us make man in our image.” What p…

One who neglects discipline rejects himself, But one who listens to a rebuke acquires understanding. Proverbs 15:32 Having started my career in sales almost three decades ago and now working as an entrepreneur, I am familiar with rejection. Every salesperson expects to hear the word “no” many times on the journey to success. Many salespeople strugg…

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers got it right in their hit song: The waiting is the hardest part. Business involves many times of waiting. We get a verbal approval from a prospect and wait for the order. We interview a great potential employee and wait for them to come on board and get up to speed. We create a new offering and wait to see the fruit.…

Today as I launch a new business initiative I’m paying attention to my heart. While I am massively excited about the impact these new programs can have, there is a part of me (much like every entrepreneur I know) that wonders if it will all go down in a ball of flames. Where does your heart go when things go wrong—or when you fear things might go w…

One day a retired businessman wanted to encourage fellow entrepreneurs who were doing the hard and thankless work of building their businesses. He thought it would be a good idea to invite them out to his beautiful ranch house in the mountains for a few days of feasting, fly fishing, and rest. With the catering, fishing guides, and entertainment al…

“Without consultation, plans are frustrated. But with many counselors they succeed.” Proverbs 15:22 Like most entrepreneurs, I tend to be very independent. The ability to call my own shots drew me to a career in sales and then as a business owner. If anyone could confidently call their own shots, it would be Solomon. After all, he was regarded as t…

I must admit, I’ve become accustomed to asking Google for answers to questions. More recently, as I have experimented with conversational AI, I’ve witnessed powerful tools that will reshape how we do business. But with all of the wonders of the latest technology, we have a much more powerful resource available: the voice of God. In Luke 11:9, Jesus…

There are many moments when business can induce stress. Between employees, customers, suppliers, sales, and cash flow, business offers many opportunities to freak out. It’s in challenging situations that we have the opportunity to allow business to deepen our trust in God. During seasons of adversity my natural reflex is to pick up the reigns, doub…

Nothing has built my faith more than being a business owner. Over the past two decades of being an entrepreneur and talking with hundreds of other entrepreneurs, I’ve found one thing to be universally true: Business creates hard moments that will challenge you to the core. There are two ways you can handle these moments. What you choose will determ…

“Help us to remember that our days are numbered, and help us to interpret our lives correctly. Psalms 90:12 TPT Knowing that we only have a finite amount of days affects the way we see our lives. The way we interpret our days matters. Understanding that our days are numbered gives us the perspective to interpret our lives correctly. Over the years …
