In today's message I am answering a listener's question. The question is, "How do I avoid neglecting my callings?" The scenario is that they have multiples ideas from God plus a day job, and they are not sure how to get it all done without neglecting something. 

Have you been serving God and sowing seeds, but you're still broke? If so, you aren't alone. Unfortunately, this is common in the body of Christ, but this is not God's will for you or others in this situation. In today's message, we address how to stop being broke and turn around your financial situation sooner than later.

Various bible teachers and pastors preach on the topics of grace, faith, and living holy. Most times you hear these topics in isolation, and depending on who you listen to, it can appear these topics contradict each other. For example, if we are living under grace, do we have to follow God's law to live holy? If we don't live holy, do we fall out of grace? Or how do faith and grace work together to receive the promises of God? In today's message, discover how these three pivotal bible truths work together for our success.

It is bound to happen at some point—you fall out of love with the vision God gave you. This is very common even though most Christians are afraid to admit it. However, this is not due to a lack of faith. It is a natural part of the process. When it happens, we have to commit to love the vision and take a much needed break for a little bit. Listen to today's message to explore this idea more.

A major key to success is knowing what type of calling God has given you. For example, has God called you to start and run a ministry or business? Confusing ministry and business will limit your success in either. In today's message, I explain the differences and nuances between these two callings, so you can clearly discern what type of calling God has given you.

Do you have an internal pulling happening inside of your spirit that is telling you that you were created for more than what you are currently experiencing in life? That pull you feel is God (the creator of our earth and the universe) nudging you to come into a relationship with Him. It may seem a little weird, but I have discovered that you won't feel fulfilled in this life until you come to Him, and the way we come to Him is through believing in His son Jesus. In this podcast message, learn how to foster a relationship with God through His son Jesus.

God has given us authority on Earth, enabling us to become successful in our business endeavors. However, success will elude us if we improperly apply this authority. On today’s podcast learn how to properly use your authority as a believer for business success.

Searching through the Bible you'll find a vast difference between praying to God over a situation and using your God-given authority in a situation. This difference is important because if you pray when need to use your authority, then you won't receive what you desire out of the situation. In today's message, learn when to pray to God vs using your authority as a believer.

To accomplish your entrepreneurial calling, you are going to need great faith. However, most of us have little to no Faith, thus we are not seeing results. One of the main reasons our faith is so weak is because we do not understand authority. God has placed various human relationships in our lives to teach us authority; however, Satan and modern culture are fighting hard to create a generation of believers who rebel against authority in all forms. Thus, we are in danger of significantly weakening our faith because we don't understand authority through our rejection of authority. In today’s message, we study the concept that having great faith requires understanding authority.

We are continuing our study of authority.  In today's message, let's reacquaint ourselves with the authority of Jesus.  Because through His authority, anything in our life that is broken can be restored.

As believers, we have the same authority Jesus has. Therefore, we have the authority to bring about our healing, success, and pretty much anything we desire. In today's message, learn about (and learn how to apply) the authority you have as a believer.

This week, I had a conversation with one of my advisors for Church for Entrepreneurs about why some people are more successful than others. And the answer was "favor." You see, God has anointed each of us with a specific calling and has called us to serve a specific group of people. This is our lane of favor. Once we find this lane of favor, we must trust it and stick with it if we want to be successful.

Many Christians ask the following question: How come I am not hearing God's voice for direction in my life? Well, in a lot of cases, it's because they are on the sidelines of their calling. When we are on the sidelines and not intentionally pursuing our calling, it's hard to hear God. God's voice is the loudest when we're implementing our calling, not waiting on our calling.

Once a month I want to remind you about the Word for 2019, “Radical Giving and Receiving", so you can take full advantage of the harvest God has for you this year. Therefore, in today's Word Training, let's look at what Jesus said about giving and receiving. You will discover that you are more blessed to receive more.

It may seem like you have been working endlessly to accomplish your vision with little to no success. But whatever God has called you to do, it has a due season for success. In today's Faith Chat, I am led to encourage you to not quit nor lose faith. Your due season for success is coming.

God has given every human the ability to have faith. Some use this ability to have faith that their education will land them a high paying job. Others have faith that medical doctors can repair something broken in their body. However, they might discover that faith in their education, doctors, etc., does not gain them the desired results. The reason is that faith in anything other than God lacks the power to get results.

As well-meaning parents, we try to teach our kids the value of a dollar, so they don’t waste money and grow up to appreciate it. However, if we are not careful, this lesson could teach them to idealize money over God. Listen to today's Faith Chat to explore this idea.

Today's culture is increasingly hostile toward believers in Christ. Because of this, people who are influenced by Satan are on a mission to harm you economically by asking you "gotcha" questions about your faith. For example, you might be asked about homosexuality, transgenderism, abortion, etc. If your answer goes against the culture's viewpoint then they will attempt to ostracize you, get you fired, or have other businesses stop doing business with your business. Learn how to handle these gotcha questions in today's word training.

In today’s message, I am answering a question from one of our listeners: “Is it okay to sell stuff at church or a Christian conference?” The scenario behind this question is they are unsure if they should be a vendor at a particular Christian conference because of how Jesus kicked out the money changers from the temple for transacting business.

For many Christians, there is a stigma to working on Sundays, which may result in missing church. It is the feeling that if you work on Sunday and miss church, then you are not honoring God. However, if God has given you a calling that requires or needs work on Sunday (and even results in missing church), you are honoring God when you are working in your calling on Sunday or any day. Listen to today's Faith Chat to explore this idea.

In today’s message we are answering a question from one of our listeners: “Is God calling me to move?” The scenario behind this question is that the listener feels a strong restlessness to leave her family (not her husband), home, and job to follow Jesus in another state. However, she is unsure whether this desire to move is from God or her.

People want to become entrepreneurs for various reasons. Some want to make more money; others want freedom. However, one reason we need to be careful about is not wanting to have a boss. Listen to today's Faith Chat to discover why we need to watch out for this reason.

I hope you are having a great start to the new year. In today’s message, I want to take a few minutes to go over the current ways in which you can use the Church for Entrepreneurs to help you succeed in your calling in 2019. Also, I’ll be discussing the broadcast schedule for this year.

There is a major misconception in the body of Christ that there are Higher Callings, usually associated with being in the ministry. However, God doesn't have higher or lower callings. Assigning ranks to a calling is a man-made creation. It's a dangerous assignment because, for example, if you see your calling to entrepreneurship as lower, you may not give it the reverence it deserves. Whatever God has called you to do, it is of holy importance. Listen to today's Faith Chat to hear more about this idea.

We are turning our attention again to marriage. Why? Because the state of an entrepreneur’s marriage affects the success or failure of their entrepreneurial calling. To help create a successful marriage, we have to not fight for our right to be right. Listen to today's Word Training to learn about this concept.

Yesterday I taught how the blessing is on you right now because of your faith in Jesus. This means you don’t have to do anything extra to receive the blessing. However, the blessing on you can be ineffective if you don’t access it. In today’s Faith Chat, I am discussing how to access the blessing.

A major factor of success is knowing that God's blessing is on you now. This blessing is the empowerment to prosper. As believers in Christ, we don't have to do anything extra to receive the blessing. It is a part of our salvation package.

Most start-up entrepreneurs have a day job that they can't wait to quit. However, your day job (a.k.a. tent making) might be a key to your entrepreneurial success. Take a listen to today's message to dig into this concept.

The Word of God speaks a lot about forgiveness. However, we usually associate forgiveness with the wrong others have done against us. The forgiveness of ourselves for the mistakes we have made or wrong we have done is often overlooked. If we don't forgive ourselves, we keep our ourselves in bondage, hinder future decisions, and block the communication channel of our prayers. In this Faith Chat, learn more about forgiveness of self so you can succeed.

Imagine a dad promises to buy a car for his daughter. If the daughter doesn't believe her dad's word, then she is expressing that she feels her dad is lying and untrustworthy. This is the same situation when we don't believe God's written word in the Bible or His spoken word to our spirit: we are basically calling God a liar. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this idea.

When God calls you to entrepreneurship, He has called you to a long-term project that will expand your entire life. With this proper mindset, you are able to have the faith and patience necessary to succeed at your calling. In today's Faith Chat, learn more about this idea.

We are concluding our our teaching (for now) on the Word for 2019 of “Radical Giving and Receiving.” In today’s message, you will learn how to access radical giving and receiving through your marriage.

Last year, we got great feedback from our online Children's Church. We praise God that many kids and families were blessed from it. This year, Children's Church is graduating to its own YouTube channel called "God's Word for Me - Kid Church." Each Saturday, you can expect a brand-new message that teaches your kids the Word of God from a kid's perspective. Usually, we email each Saturday when a new message is released. However, we will shortly begin to phase out the Saturday emails. Therefore, to get notified when a new Kid Church message is live, please subscribe to our new YouTube channel and click the notification bell. Also, please share our YouTube channel with other families.

We are continuing to teach on the Word for 2019 of “Radical Giving and Receiving.” In today’s message, you will learn how to access radical giving and receiving with your time spent studying the Word of God.

We are continuing to teach on the Word for 2019 of "Radical Giving and Receiving." In today's message, you will learn how to access radical giving and receiving through your business by sowing three types of seeds of financial success in your business.

At the beginning of each year, God shares with me a concept that He desires for those who are connected with Church for Entrepreneurs to focus on for that entire year. For 2019, the concept is "Radical Giving and Receiving." Take a listen to this first message of the New Year to learn more about this concept.

Have a merry Christmas and happy New Year! I pray that your holiday season is blessed and you are able to spend quality time with family and friends. From December 24 to 31 we are taking an end-of-year break, which means our next podcast will not air until January 1, 2019. When we come back, we will minister the Word God has given us for 2019. Talk to you soon.

Christmas is less than 3 days away, and kids across the world are very excited about receiving toys. However, what is Christmas really about? In today’s Children’s Church lesson, Pastor April teaches about the Glory of Christmas.

Most entrepreneurs are not lazy, but many of us lack diligence, which is focused activity over a significant period of time. We may easily become distracted by other activities or simply get bored of certain tasks. These tendencies cause us to deviate from our calling, which results in slow or no success. Whereas diligence always produces success.

Most times with God, you have to travel awhile along your journey to fully see what God is calling you to do. You begin with partial information, but the vision gets clearer as you take steps along the path. This is exactly what happened to me when I started the Church for Entrepreneurs about four and a half years ago. When I first started, I knew a little, but now I see the vision from God about this ministry. On today's podcast, I am sharing our vision with you. As you are listening, check your spirit to see if God is leading you to partner with our vision.

Usually between where you are now and your next level is a financial gap. For example, you are working a day job and a side entrepreneurial project. The day job is draining, and you're ready to go all in on entrepreneurship. It doesn't make financial sense to quit, but you are so ready to leave the job. In this situation, consider if Holy Spirit is leading you to take a transition step before making the leap into full-time entrepreneurship.

Have you ever heard the saying "I am just an old sinner saved by grace?" This sounds holy, but it doesn't correctly describe your identity in Christ. You cannot be both a sinner and saved. In today's Word Training, discover your true identity in Christ, so you can come boldly to God as a son or daughter and receive your inheritance of success in this life and the next.

When we experience failure in life, if we are not careful, we can harden our hearts towards God. This is dangerous because a hard heart cannot have faith, which is the force by which we receive success from God. In a very real way, a hardened heart towards God blocks your success in life and in your calling.

Christmas is less than 10 days away. In today's Children's Church lesson, Pastor April will teach about Jesus as the gift God gave us for Christmas.

I have a single thought I want to share with you: "God is not the author of confusion." Any area of your life where there is disorder and/or a lack of clarity, God is not the author of that. An author is someone who creates. God creates peace, which is order and clarity, not confusion. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this concept and gain insight from Holy Spirit on how to bring peace to all areas of your life and calling.

In today's Faith Chat, I am continuing to share the things God is instructing me to do so my calling can go to the next level. The focus for today is the idea that I need to create better family support systems, which will lead to exponential success in my calling. Take a listen to learn more about this idea and check your spirit for how you can use this information for your life and calling.

In today’s message, I am answering a question from one of the members of the Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur community. Their question is “Should I be a lender to my brothers and sisters in Christ?” Here is a paraphrase of the question: I understand that debt is not a sin, however being in debt is like being a slave to the lender. The Bible also says we are to be lenders and not borrowers. If debt is so bad, then why shall we lend to others so they can be in debt and therefore be slaves to us? Why not just give and forget and not lend and expect it back from the borrower?

Have you been praying for success in entrepreneurship but it seems like your prayers are not being answered? If so and you're married, then check the state of your marriage. You see, the Word of God teaches us that if our marriages are in disrepair, that will hinder our prayers. This means that there is a direct connection between the success of your marriage and your entrepreneurial success. Listen to today's Word Training to learn more about this concept.
