We are here today with Chief Pastoral Officer of Movement Mortgage and Sovereign’s Capital, Stephen Phalen. Follow along as we discuss the journey of Movement Mortgage from start up to top 10 status in the industry.
Can redemptive companies operate at a large scale? Movement Mortgage went from a handful of faith driven visionaries to 5000 employees. The impressive part is that they scaled the the Kingdom distinctives alongside the financial growth of the company. In addition to excelling in their industry, Movement Mortgage is igniting a mentoring movement to help awaken the Church in the business community.
If you have struggled with hope in this season of darkness you will be ignited with faith as you hear the powerful testimony of what can happen when a company is 100% intentional about advancing the Kingdom.

We are here today with Rev. Dr. Rafik Wagdy Barsoum. He is the founder of a ministry called ‘Message to All Nations’.
It is great to have Dr. Rafik back on the program!
I believe Dr. Rafik functions as a modern day 'man of Issachar'.
1 Chronicles 12:32 mentions ‘The Men of Issachar’ … these were men who ‘understood the times and new what to do’.
Follow along as we discuss the Missio Dei [Mission of God] that Dr. Rafik and his organization find themselves in the midst of in the Middle East and around the world. Message to All Nations is wisely advancing the Kingdom of God through Media and online platforms including their now established online 'Church of the Nations'.
Highlights include:
• The Mission of God in the Middle East
• Old and New Wineskins
• How Digital Church is Working!!
• Assessment about what God is doing in this season
• Hopeful trends in the Middle East
• How can a western, Christian professional relate to the Missio Dei in the Middle East?
This interview will fill you with Hope and Courage!
Today we have the opportunity to talk with Sam Russell, the founder of The Buttered Biscuit. Also joining us we have the director of operations, Hunter Kissinger.
The Buttered Biscuit is a rare example of a company that was founded as a Kingdom Driven Enterprise that is actually very successful financially and is equally successful at the business of the Kingdom.
When the concept of a faith based company comes up even believers are hard pressed to describe what that would look like. Well the Buttered Biscuit will give you a real picture of what is possible.
I dive into the story of The Buttered Biscuit and discover an example of how a company can be excellent and operate in alignment with the interests of the Kingdom.
This is a fully authentic and raw discussion that will fill you with hope that things can be different and give you the courage to be the one to bring change.
Highlights Include:
Today we have missions thought leader and author Dr. Larry Sharp on the program.
