Business... As A Christian

Living a life filled with joy through the spirit of God is like discovering a wellspring of happiness that never runs dry. When we serve the Lord, we find fulfilment beyond measure. Every act of kindness, every moment of service, brings a deep sense of joy, knowing that we are aligning ourselves with God's purpose for our lives. It is not just about what we do but the attitude with which we do it, knowing that we are spreading love and joy in the world. In this episode, Troy Bravenboer and I discuss the power of living and doing business with the joy of God’s Spirit in us. Troy Bravenboer is the Founder, Chief Executive Officer, and president of Brave Freight. He previously worked as a Marketing rep at Vivint and attended River Bible Institute. In the episode, you will understand that trusting in God and living for Him extends beyond the walls of our churches and into every facet of our lives, including our businesses. When we prioritise God in our dealings, we find that doors open, opportunities arise, and success follows. This is not just luck or coincidence but a direct result of God's favour and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. The joy of the Lord truly becomes our strength, and inner joy springs forth from a life lived in alignment with the spirit of God. Let’s jump in!

Sometimes, it may seem easy, but balancing faith and business can be very challenging, and navigating this intersection with wisdom is essential. Building your business on a solid foundation that reflects your values and principles is critical. Pursuing your entrepreneurial goals with dedication and diligence while staying true to your beliefs is important for every Christian business owner. However, it's equally important to draw a clear boundary between your faith and business pursuits. Avoid conflating the two to maintain integrity, focus, and success within each domain. Let your business thrive independently to create opportunities to help others and make a difference in line with your faith.

Life is never linear, especially for believers. There will be ups and downs along the way. Jesus Himself told us that in this world, we will have trouble (John 16:33). Such tests, however, are necessary for our faith's growth and to show God that we are mature enough to be entrusted with greater blessings. Many believers, especially Christian entrepreneurs, are unaware that such testing can be a blessing prerequisite, opening more doors for business growth and networking. However, testing is only a blessing when you see yourself improving your character. You will never really know who you are, your level of happiness, or your maturity in your comfort area. Testing comes to expose yourself and let you gauge where you are. How you deal with those challenges and trust the Lord matters. In this episode with Paul Aragones, we discuss trusting the Lord more during challenging times and using them to draw closer to Him and receive blessings. With over a decade of ministry and coaching experience, Paul Aragones shares insights. He spent eight years as a missionary and life coach for Cru, a campus ministry, mentoring young people about life and love for Jesus. Additionally, he served as a youth leader for four years in his church in the Philippines, guiding youth towards Jesus.

Christians are often pressured to make tough decisions, especially in business or corporate settings. Sometimes, these decisions may compromise the values of one's faith. As an entrepreneur, you have likely faced such dilemmas. Did you allow the Holy Spirit to guide your decision-making, or did you compromise to avoid losing a deal or missing out on an opportunity? Taking it to the Lord in prayer is always beneficial. During meetings, it is also important not to rush. Don't hesitate to request more time for reflection and prayer. In this episode with Neville Solomon, we discuss our journeys as Christians and entrepreneurs and how the two blend for holistic living.

Pastors and leaders of all denominations need to recognise that ministry, in many ways, is similar to running a business. As a pastor, you provide valuable guidance in many areas. However, it may struggle if you do not approach ministry with a business mindset. Remember, the goal is to hear, "Well done, good and faithful servant." To achieve this, a shift in perspective might be necessary. Think of yourself as an entrepreneur for God. This episode with Phil Routly explores why business principles are inseparable from successful ministry. He also discusses the importance of keeping God at the centre of everything you do as an entrepreneur and why your business plan should align with His purpose for your life.

As a Christian business owner, upholding your faith while embracing and respecting the diversity of those you serve is essential. It is not your role to judge or discriminate against individuals based on their identity.

By creating a welcoming and inclusive space, we can share the love of Jesus with all who attend our programs or get served in our businesses. In this conversation with Dwight, we will learn how he has successfully navigated these challenges and gain valuable tips to implement in our own businesses.
