You can be building a real business, on fire for God, plugged into a solid church — and still feel completely alone. Every Christian entrepreneur knows the two rooms: the church that doesn't quite understand your ambition, and the business world that leaves Jesus at the door.

Cody and Esther Cottle tell the story behind the Christian Entrepreneur Club — the gap that started it, the word from God that led them to walk away from their business, and the conference it became. It's what happens when you stop trying to build alone.
