In this powerful installment of the Bible on Business series, Tatum unpacks the biblical principle of perseverance and its critical role in building a legacy business. Drawing from Acts 14 and Acts 16, we examine the unwavering resilience of Paul—stoned, rejected, and imprisoned—yet unshaken in his mission. Tatum shares personal stories of business disappointment, failed launches, and doubt, while teaching listeners how to endure well with hope and strategy. She also bridges the Word to the marketplace by highlighting the perseverance of Howard Schultz, former CEO of Starbucks, who was rejected over 200 times before transforming the coffee industry. If you’ve ever faced discouragement in your entrepreneurial journey, this episode will re-center your focus, rekindle your faith, and equip you to keep going.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What biblical perseverance really means (hint: it’s not just “pushing through”)
• How to apply Acts 14 & 16 to your business strategy
• The difference between godly grit and emotional striving
• How to view business failure through a Kingdom lens
• Why legacy takes long-term faith, not short-term emotion
• How Howard Schultz used perseverance to build Starbucks after hundreds of rejections

In this episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum dives deep into Acts 15:1–21 to unpack a practical and biblical framework for resolving conflict in business. She walks through the example of the Jerusalem Council and explains how the apostles resolved a major disagreement without compromising truth or unity. Tatum also shares insights from psychological research on conflict avoidance—especially in the digital age—and outlines how modern entrepreneurs can adopt a Christ-centered approach to managing disputes. The episode concludes with a memorable acronym, PEACE, to guide believers through conflict with wisdom, empathy, and clarity.

Key Points Covered:

A verse-by-verse breakdown of Acts 15:1–21 highlighting how conflict was handled in the early church.

The importance of mastering soft skills like conflict resolution for business success and Christian witness.

Data-backed insights on how most people avoid conflict and how that avoidance leads to stress, anxiety, and fractured relationships.

The impact of digital communication on our ability to address issues directly and with empathy.

Tatum’s personal experiences with conflict in business and the lessons she’s learned over the years.

The biblical model of addressing disagreements with humility, truth, community, and clear communication.

Introduction of the PEACE method, a five-step framework based on Acts 15.

The PEACE Method for Conflict Resolution:

P – Pause and Pray: Take a moment before responding. Seek the Holy Spirit’s guidance.

E – Examine the Root Issue: Go beyond surface-level problems to uncover the true cause of the conflict.

A – Approach with Empathy and Accountability: Listen more than you speak. Own your role and respond with grace and truth.

C – Collaborate on a Christ-Centered Solution: Aim for reconciliation, not just resolution. Propose outcomes that honor God and preserve unity.

E – Establish Next Steps: Clarify decisions and expectations. Put agreements in writing to avoid future confusion.

Save the PEACE acronym as a reminder the next time conflict arises in your business or ministry. Use it to remain rooted in biblical truth while navigating difficult conversations.

In this week’s episode of Blessed and Bossed Up, we continue our journey through The Spirit-Filled Life by Charles Stanley, focusing on Chapter 3: The Indwelling Spirit. Tatum walks through Stanley’s personal experience with imposter syndrome and how it led him to a deeper understanding of the Holy Spirit’s presence and power in his life.

This chapter highlights the difference between simply believing in the Holy Spirit and actively living a Spirit-filled life. Tatum discusses how many believers, though saved and sincere, may not be experiencing the fullness of the Holy Spirit because He is not fully activated in their daily lives. Stanley’s transparency about his own struggle brings clarity and hope for those who want to experience more of God but aren’t sure how.

Through practical application and biblical insight, this episode challenges listeners to consider their own level of intimacy with the Holy Spirit. It’s not just about having Him present, but about allowing Him to fully take residence and lead. The chapter also touches on being sealed by the Spirit and the confidence we can have in knowing that God has taken up permanent residence within us.

Reflection Prompt:

Take a moment to meditate on these two truths:

1. The Holy Spirit is God.
2. The Holy Spirit lives in me.

What do these truths mean for your daily life? How should they affect your thoughts, decisions, character, relationships, and sense of purpose?

In this powerful and deeply practical conclusion to the Spirit-Led Business Decisions series, Tatum wraps up what organically grew into a four-part journey into how Christian entrepreneurs can walk with God daily in their business—not just in theory, but in practice. In this final installment, she shifts from theological insight to real-world application, answering the question: "How do I make this a lifestyle and not just lip service?"

Tatum dives into Galatians 5:25 and unpacks what it truly means to "keep in step with the Spirit." She contrasts rhythm vs. routine, exploring why many believers struggle to remain connected to God in their daily grind, and how reclaiming spiritual rhythm—rooted in abiding, alignment, obedient action, and reflection—can transform not just your business, but your entire life.

• The true meaning of Galatians 5:25 and its call to live Spirit-led daily.

In this continuation of the Bible on Business series, Tatum walks through Acts 16:6–10 to illustrate how critical it is for Christian entrepreneurs to embrace mobility and flexibility when building a business God’s way. Using Paul’s second missionary journey as a framework, this episode explores what it looks like to make strategic plans while remaining fully open to divine redirection.

If you’re someone who knows you’re called but keeps facing closed doors, delays, or redirections that don’t make sense, this message is for you. Tatum speaks to the emotional and spiritual tension of following God with excellence while trusting Him to guide every step—even when plans change.

She also shares a personal story about obeying the Holy Spirit with no confirmation and how that decision ultimately protected her and her family. This episode will shift your mindset around delays, reframe how you view closed doors, and help you move forward with peace and confidence.

• The Holy Spirit often leads us as we move, not before.
• Flexibility and mobility are vital for kingdom entrepreneurs.

• Proverbs 16:9

In this special replay episode of Blessed + Bossed Up, Tatum revisits one of the most crucial conversations for today’s believer: how to qualify wise counsel. Following her recent teaching on Spirit-led business decisions from Acts 13:1–4, this episode builds upon that foundation by emphasizing the importance of discerning who we allow to pour into us—especially in an era where spiritual influence can be bought, marketed, and misused.

Using 2 Kings 4:1–7 as the anchor text, Tatum unpacks the story of a desperate widow, divine instruction, and miraculous provision. Through this narrative, she walks listeners through how wise counsel played a key role in this woman’s breakthrough—and how we can discern and apply the same principles in our own lives and businesses.

This conversation isn’t just about avoiding deception—it’s about equipping you to hear from God clearly in a noisy world and ensuring that those you go to for advice are truly led by the Spirit.

Main Points Covered:

• Why this episode is being reposted: Tatum shares the intention behind revisiting this message—to reinforce the importance of spiritual discernment, especially as believers are often influenced by online voices and virtual leaders.
• Biblical Foundation: 2 Kings 4:1–7 is explored in-depth as a model for how God uses wise counsel to deliver strategy and provision.
• Discerning Influence: The difference between godly counsel and well-meaning but misaligned advice.
• Spiritual Maturity: Why humility, biblical grounding, and discernment are non-negotiables for those we allow to guide us.

Five Characteristics of Wise Counsel:

1. God-Centered: They fear the Lord and submit their advice to what God is saying—not just what works.
2. Biblically Sound: Their guidance aligns with scripture in full context and is rooted in truth.
3. Discerning: They are able to perceive beyond surface issues and speak to the root.
4. Humble and Teachable: They don’t lead with ego or accolades, but with a heart postured toward serving and hearing from God.
5. Experienced and Spiritually Mature: Their track record is submitted to God, and their insight is seasoned by both time and obedience.

Examples of Wise and Unwise Counsel in Scripture:

• Moses and Jethro – Exodus 18:13–24
• Paul and Timothy – 2 Timothy 1:6–7
• Rehoboam and His Advisors – 1 Kings 12:6–15 (a case study in ignoring wise counsel)

Tatum’s Encouragement:

You don’t always have time to vet people when crisis hits. That’s why building relationships with biblically sound, Spirit-led leaders before you’re in need is essential. Don’t wait until you're overwhelmed to figure out who you can trust. Use this episode as a guide to start evaluating your circle now.

In this continuation of our Bible on Business series, we dive deeper into the process of making Holy Spirit-led business decisions. Picking up from Part 1 (based on Acts 8), today’s discussion focuses on Acts 13:1-4 and how divine strategy and clarity are birthed from a lifestyle of worship, fasting, and consistent submission to God. Tatum also shares critical biblical principles for discerning the spirit behind those who claim to be sent by God, offering practical steps to avoid deception and remain anchored in the truth.

Key Points:

• Context of Acts 13: Shift from Jerusalem to Antioch, highlighting the transition from Peter’s leadership to Paul’s.
• Divine Strategy is Birthed from Worship and Fasting:
• Barnabas and Saul’s commissioning came in the middle of an existing posture of worship, not a strategic session seeking next steps.
• Application: Do not seek God only for strategy—pursue a lifestyle of submission, intimacy, and service.
• Beware of Misaligned Spiritual Leadership:
• Many modern Christian entrepreneurs and believers are spiritually "thirsty," making them vulnerable to deception.
• Importance of properly discerning who lays hands on you or influences your spiritual walk and business decisions.
• Principles for Discerning Spiritual Leadership:

1. Test their confession of Jesus (1 John 4:1-3).
2. Test the fruit of their life (Matthew 7:15-20).
3. Test alignment with Scripture (Galatians 1:8-9; Isaiah 8:20).
4. Test through the witness of the Holy Spirit (John 16:13).

• Practical Application:
• Ask key questions:
• Does this person exalt the true Jesus or themselves?
• Does their life consistently produce holy fruit?
• Are their teachings aligned fully with Scripture?
• Does the Holy Spirit bear witness within you regarding their message and conduct?
• Take your time before accepting any prophetic word or impartation. It is wise to "wait and see" rather than rushing based on emotions.
• Personal Story:
• Tatum shares her own journey of being patient during a wilderness season and how God’s deposits led to the launch of Anchored Media and her continued success, underscoring the power of patience and submission.
