The Word on Investing

What if the reason most traders struggle…is because they're trying to predict something that simply can't be predicted? In this episode, we unpack why professional traders don't guess the market—and what they do instead to trade with consistency, clarity, and confidence. Many beginners assume success in trading comes down to predicting the next move—what the market will do tomorrow, how the Fed will act, or whether a stock will go up or down. But the reality is, those things can't be known ahead of time. And trying to predict them often leads to pressure, emotional decisions, and unnecessary losses. Instead, consistent traders focus on something far more reliable: recognizing patterns driven by human behavior. In this conversation, we walk through the common traps that keep traders stuck and introduce a better way forward—a probability-based mindset built on structure, not guesswork. You'll also learn the simple framework we call the "3-Legged Table," a system designed to help traders move from uncertainty to consistency by focusing on three key areas: fundamentals, technical patterns, and overall market tone. When these three work together, you're no longer trying to predict outcomes—you're learning to stack probability in your favor. We also talk about the importance of developing real skill sets—like identifying patterns, drawing trend lines, and practicing through paper trading—so you can gain understanding before ever risking real money. At TRADEway, we believe trading should be approached with discipline, stewardship, and wisdom—not hype or guesswork. As Ecclesiastes 1:9 reminds us, "there is no new thing under the sun." Patterns repeat, and when you learn to recognize them, everything begins to change. If you've ever felt the pressure of trying to "figure out" the market, this episode will help you take a step back—and show you a more grounded, consistent approach forward. 📈 Join the upcoming Unlock the Stock Market Challenge: https://www.tradeway.com/challenge 💸 Free Masterclass - Stock Trading: The New Gold Rush: https://www.tradeway.com/masterclass 📲 Book a Complimentary Strategy Session: https://www.tradeway.com/call ✅ Subscribe so you don't miss any videos: https://www.youtube.com/@TRADEway 🎙️Subscribe to The Word on Investing Podcast wherever you get your podcasts

What does it really mean to seek God—not occasionally, but diligently? In this morning devotional, we explore the biblical call to move beyond passive faith and become active pursuers of the Lord. Scripture doesn't describe a casual relationship with God—it calls us to seek Him with intention, consistency, and heart. Drawing from 1 Chronicles 22:17–19 and Hebrews 11:6 (KJV), Ben Mitchell unpacks what diligence looks like in the Christian life—and why it matters. In this episode, you'll learn: • What Biblical diligence actually means (and what it doesn't) • Why seeking God is an active, daily pursuit—not just a passive belief • How faith and action work together in the life of a believer • What it looks like to seek God in every season—even in doubt, grief, or spiritual dryness • Biblical examples from David, Jeremiah, and Hannah The truth is—God is not distant. He promises to be found by those who seek Him. "...he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." — Hebrews 11:6 (KJV) Whether you're starting your day or simply resetting your focus, this episode is an invitation to draw near to God with purpose.

Have you ever looked back and been thankful God said "no"? In a world that measures life by outcomes, achievements, and results, Scripture points us toward something deeper: obedience to God and trust in His plan. In this teaching, we explore why faithfulness matters more than visible results — and how true peace comes from walking in obedience, even when life doesn't unfold the way we expected. If you've ever wondered: • Why following God doesn't always lead to immediate success • How to trust God when life feels uncertain • What Biblical contentment really looks like • How ambition and faith can work together (not against each other) …this message is for you. Through passages like Proverbs 16:9, Philippians 4, and Romans 5, we unpack how God uses every season — even difficult ones — to shape our character, build perseverance, and strengthen our hope in Him. Nothing in the Christian life is purposeless. Even seasons of pressure, waiting, or testing can become part of God's process of preparing us for what's ahead. At TRADEway, we believe stewardship begins with the right foundation — spiritually, mentally, and financially. Our mission has always been about more than trading education. It's about helping families walk in wisdom, faith, and long-term legacy thinking. If this message encouraged you to view your life and finances through the lens of Biblical stewardship, please consider liking this video and subscribing so you don't miss what's ahead. We're grateful to walk alongside you as we seek God's wisdom and steward well what He has entrusted to us.

What if one of the biggest shifts you could make in your financial life starts with a simple biblical truth: It's not your money — it's God's. In this episode, we explore three foundational ways Scripture calls believers to think about finances: recognizing God as the true owner of everything, living as faithful stewards of what we've been entrusted with, and pursuing wisdom that only comes from the Lord. Throughout the Bible, we see a consistent message — everything we have ultimately belongs to God, and we are called to manage His resources with faithfulness, humility, and purpose. But what does that actually look like in daily financial decisions, investing, planning for your family, and building long-term legacy? Together, we walk through key passages including Psalm 24, Haggai 2, the Parable of the Talents, James 1, and Proverbs, to unpack how biblical ownership, stewardship, and wisdom work together to form a God-honoring financial mindset. This episode is for anyone who wants to move beyond simply pursuing wealth and instead pursue faithfulness, peace, and purpose in how they handle money. In This Episode, You'll Learn: • Why Scripture teaches that everything we have belongs to God • The difference between ownership and stewardship • What it means to be a "good and faithful servant" with financial resources • How prayer and godly counsel shape financial wisdom • Why the Bible says wisdom is more valuable than gold At TRADEway, we believe financial education should be grounded in biblical stewardship, wise decision-making, and serving others well — not quick wins or emotional trading decisions. If this episode encouraged you, be sure to follow the podcast and share it with someone who wants to grow in both their faith and their financial wisdom.

Season 7 Premiere — The Word on Investing Podcast What if many Christians were never taught the full biblical picture of wealth? In this powerful Season 7 premiere, Ben Mitchell shares TRADEway's vision for 2026 — and the biblical foundation behind why stewardship, wisdom, and faithful work matter more than ever. For many believers, money has been surrounded by confusion, guilt, or misunderstanding. But Scripture paints a much bigger, hope-filled picture — one rooted in responsibility, wisdom, and long-term, God-honoring impact. In this episode, we discuss: • The difference between riches and true biblical wealth • Why Proverbs 21:20 calls believers to pursue wisdom and stewardship • What Colossians 3 teaches about work, purpose, and serving Christ • Why TRADEway does NOT teach "get rich quick" trading • How generational, God-honoring wealth is built over time • Why knowledge and wisdom are more valuable than gold At TRADEway, we believe stewardship starts with the right foundation — spiritually, mentally, and financially. Our mission is to help believers: • Replace fear with knowledge • Replace guessing with proven systems • Replace quick-money thinking with legacy stewardship • Use financial wisdom to serve God, family, and Kingdom impact If you've ever wondered: Is it biblical for Christians to build wealth? Does God want believers to prosper — or simply survive? Can investing be part of faithful stewardship? Key Scriptures Discussed: Proverbs 21:20 Colossians 3:23–24 Our Prayer For You: That you walk faithfully in your calling, steward wisely what God gives you, and use your work to bring Him glory.

The long-term investing industry hasn't really changed that much in the last 50 years as far as their message goes: "Don't worry about bear market crashes, just stay the course…" Many people argue that the average person on the street would be way better off if they just bought the S&P 500 and held it rather than trying to buy and sell individual stocks themselves. Well, that may be absolutely true if you have zero trading skillsets. But if you do have the kind of trading skillsets that TRADEway teaches, then the old line philosophy of buy and hold isn't the best strategy for you. In today's episode we're talking about some common myths that buy-and-hold-ers propagate. Let's get into this important discussion… 💰Register for the Free Webinar - Buy & Hold Is Dead?
