I want to talk this Sunday morning about the danger of being mad with each other. For the last four years, believers have been enraged by each other's political views. If we allow our anger to continue, we will destroy each other's vision and be no good for the kingdom. Listen to this message to explore this idea with me and share your thoughts in the comments.  Link: Join our online community 

Here is the replay of today's Open Forum. We discussed mainly about how to parent kids with mental health issues. Unfortunately this is not uncommon among Christian entrepreneurs. Link: Join our community

The business that God has placed in your heart should not look and feel like a worldly business. I believe it should have five characteristics that set it apart as a God-inspired business. In this episode of the Faith and Business broadcast, I am discussing those characteristics, which are: (1) Glorifies God in its operation; (2) Brings value to customers; (3) Provides profits for your family; (4) Creates opportunities for others; and (5) Thrives well with your marriage. Watch this month’s Faith & Business broadcast to explore this concept. Link: Join our community

I am led by Holy Spirit to minister a message for believers who desired for President Trump to win a second term in office. Because the presidency of Donald Trump was surrounded by so many prophecies of him serving two terms, many believers who voted for Trump were very disappointed and confused by the outcome. They have questions like: What does this mean? Is everyone who prophesied Trump's win a false prophet? How did so many ministers get it wrong? Or is something else going on? These unanswered questions for believers who voted for Donald Trump have the potential of weakening your faith in your own ability to hear God speak to you. In this message, I am exploring these questions to give you a framework to process with Holy Spirit the outcome and provide some insight into prophecies from God. Please note: if you are tired of hearing about the election, I get it. It is okay not to listen to this message. This message is for those who are still processing the outcome in light of all the prophecies of President Trump winning again. Link: Join our online community

As the USA holds its inauguration today for its next president, I am reflecting on the divisiveness of the political session we are still in. It feels as though we are in a constant state of manmade fear from both sides, which creates stress nationwide. Given that stress is not going to magically leave, how do we stay in REST through it all? Take a listen and share your thoughts on this. Link: Join our community

Since I have entered this year of REST, one thought in the back of my mind keeps coming up: "I'm not doing enough." This thought is a trick of the enemy to get me to add extra stuff to what God has called on me to implement this year. In today's reflections, I am examining this tricky thought. Take a listen and share your insights on this. Link: Join our community

Happy MLK Day! Since today is a holiday we have cancelled our live faith discussion. However, I still have a message that I believe God wants you to hear this week. That message is "rest requires us to stop adding to God's instructions." Because of the hard work, hustle, and grind culture we live in, we add extra things to what God called us to do. It is hard to accept the simple instructions, so we add stuff to it. It is the extra stuff that takes us out of rest. Listen to today's message and share in our online community what are some ways this year you can guard against adding extra to God's instructions for your calling. Link: Join our community

God desires for us to receive counsel from other believers, so our vision can be successful. However, this does not mean we should accept every counsel that's given to us. In this reflection, I'm talking through how we can determine when not to receive counsel from another believer. Visit our community to share in the comments your thoughts on this topic.

This year, we are rebuilding the Church for Entrepreneurs with a community focus. We are serving you through community. Holy Spirit revealed to me that it is through a community of like-minded Christian entrepreneurs, each member of the community is going to see the greatest levels of success. Although God gave you the vision, He doesn't want you to do it without counsel from other believers. In fact, He designed our calling to require counsel from others. And one of the best ways to receive counsel is through community. Link: Join our online community

In this morning's reflections I am thinking about HER again. In all honesty, at the beginning of this year instead of hearing, executing, and relaxing, most of us are going to hear, execute, and worry. But that's okay at first. Give yourself some grace as you practice the HER model of success.   Links: Join | Partner

Every New Year brings a level of transition. God starts to speak to us about doing new things. However, doing the new usually requires us to let off the old. This morning I am reflecting on how there is a level of fear we feel when transiting to something new. And if we don't overcome that fear, we will miss out on new levels of success from the transition. Links: Join | Partner

I am working on a new online course for our community. However, as I was working, I started to second guess if I should make the course or not. As I was second guessing, I realized that I was violating "HER". I heard God say it, I was executing, but I was not relaxing. In this short reflection, I am reflecting on how "HER" is harder than it sounds, and it will take some practice this year. Links: Join | Partner

As many of you know, this year we let go of our Daily Word messages. It was something that I wrestled with for a while. In the end I decided to follow what I sensed the Holy Spirit was instructing me to do. In this short reflection, I am reflecting on that decision and I would like you to reflect on the question, what do you need to let go of, so you can make room for the new things God wants you to do.

Proverbs 15:22 KJV Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. Matthew 9:16-17 KJV No man putteth a piece of new cloth unto an old garment, for that which is put in to fill it up taketh from the garment, and the rent is made worse. Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break, and the wine runneth out, and the bottles perish: but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved.

At the beginning of each year, God shares with me a word that He desires for those who are connected with Church for Entrepreneurs to focus on for that entire year. The Word for 2021 is Rest. Our motto for this year of rest is Hear, Execute, and Relax: "HER".   Hear in our spirit Execute with our hands Relax in our mind   Rest requires seven things of us.   Live in the now, not the future.  Do whatever we are able to do, then do it all without constantly second-guessing yourself. Do not push too hard to find purpose; let purpose find us while we are doing what we know how to do. Rely on the blessing for success, instead of leaning on our own power to make success. Let God be in control of “how it’s going to happen”, "when it's going to happen", and "what's (in terms of magnitude of results) going to happen". Do not add extra details to God's instructions. Allow to give ourselves grace when we make mistakes.   Keep it simple in 2021. Get God's direction and focus on today's instructions, and let tomorrow take care of itself. In this way you can succeed in your rest. This year let your spirit and hands do the work, and rest your mind from figuring it out. 

The prosperity gospel is a term coined for Christians who teach and believe that God desires for Christians to be wealthy and healthy. This concept has been criticized over the years as a heresy and error by other Christian teachers and institutions. Even with the criticism, I believe in the message behind the prosperity gospel. Let me explain why. Links: Join and/or Partner

The Word God gave me for 2020 was clarity. In particular He said, We are entering a year, where the callings that I have placed inside of my people will be accelerated and those who know their calling, accept it and execute it will experience unprecedented levels of success. 2020 is the year of clarity. Clarity of purpose and clarity of action. - Word from God But guess what? 2020 is not over yet. There is still time to press in with our faith and receive the success we desire in these last few days of the year. Listen in as I discuss this more. Links: Join and/or Partner

Merry Christmas, everyone. On this day, we celebrate the birth of Jesus, which represents our salvation, but also God's patience. God's vision was to have children, but when Adam and Eve sinned, He had to wait many thousands of years until the time was right to send Jesus to restore us back to Him. In today's Christmas message, let's explore God's patience through the birth of Jesus and see what we can learn for our own vision. Links: Join and/or Partner

Mary’s faith to conceive Jesus is a great example for us of how to stretch our mind and spirit to receive the vision God has for us. When presented with the greatest calling of all time (giving birth to the messiah) instead of doubt, Mary stretched her mind beyond human understanding and simply asked – How shall this be.

However, many Christians called to coaching have spiritual roadblocks and lack godly insight about coaching that is preventing them from succeeding in their business. In this workshop, our goal is to allow time and space for the Holy Spirit to speak directly to your spirit about your coaching business to remove spiritual roadblocks and impart insight so you can fully help others and profit in the coaching business that God placed in your heart.

I am big proponent of focusing on a single goal until it's been fully achieved. However, God has given some of us multiple callings. In that case, you may be wondering how to implement multiple callings without splitting your attention and focus to the point that none of your callings are successful. How do I know about this challenge? Because over the last year, God has been speaking to me about adding two additional callings to my life.
