Stay encouraged as we are well into the 2nd half of this year and approach the final quarter. We’ve all gone through a lot this year and it’s easy to become discouraged, depressed, heavy-hearted, and even jaded...looking at everything through the lens of despair and negativity. Well, I’m encouraging you to take off the lenses coated with dirt. Put on your spiritual googles.

This episode is for the entrepreneurial believer that is worried about money and making ends meet. We hear people say "don't stress" and "give it to God" all the time. But it's so much easier said than done. How do we really allow God to step into our businesses and finances to ease the stress of money?

As entrepreneurial parents, we are raising kids and businesses at the same time. Two of the hardest things I’ve done (in addition to marriage). All are also the most rewarding. It’s where we leave our legacy. Our kids are watching and listening. Let's teach them a little somethin' somethin' along the way about life, purpose, success, and faith.

We can't cheat death, but we can secure eternity. We've all experienced loss this year. With so much uncertainty in the world, we can be sure about one thing...we will die one day. When that day comes will we be prepared?

We're wrapping up 6 simple (but not always easy) ways you can begin to infuse a little faith into the ways you run and operate your small business. As entrepreneurs, we have the opportunity to blend our beliefs and business - both internally and externally with our brand.

Let's talk about faith baby, let's talk about you and me (for you early 90s kids), let's talk about 6 simple (but not always easy) ways you can begin to infuse a little faith into the ways your run and operate your small business.

We were each created for a purpose and placed here for a reason. The best way to understand why something was created is to look to its creator. Genius right? The keys and clues to understanding your purpose can be found in the unique DNA that was placed inside of you. We can also learn this from looking at fish...the barracuda to be exact.

When I was newer in my career and green at juggling life, work, and family, I truly thought I could have it all and do it all. "I can do all things through Christ" right? But the weight of the incredible expectation I put on myself to do and have and juggle all the things broke me. And I was devastated when it all came crashing down. Let's throw out the concept of work-life balance and begin to flow in God's favor with the understanding that while we can do all things with Him, He hasn't called us to do all things.

I’ve been thinking about the topic of money a lot lately. Because we are in a concerning economy right now and mostly because I’m amazed at how the ebb and flow of being an entrepreneur can drive and impair the emotions. With regard to finances and revenue, the roller coaster ride is a trip. And the notion of feast or famine is real. With all of the ups and downs, God always has a way of coming through. It may be at the last minute, but hey, I can’t complain. I want to encourage you to hang in there and know that God has some amazing blessings coming your way. Here are 10 scriptures to everyone should know about money.

It can turn to anxiety and stress. In uncertain times, we must put our hope and trust in God more now more than ever. This involves redefining the pivot for our lives and businesses and promoting God to CEO.
