Welcome to the final episode of our mini-series on letting Jesus into every area of life!
(Well, maybe the next-to-last, we might do one on arts and entertainment too.)
In this episode, Zack and Randy tackle business and money, the things we're told never to discuss in polite company. But should Christians really compartmentalize their faith when it comes to work? Absolutely not.
๐๏ธ IN THIS EPISODE:
- Why the "don't talk about religion, politics, or money" rule needs to go
- How God's original job description for Adam was actually about business
- Six biblical principles for Christians in business:
1. Work Hard (Do everything like you're doing it for the Lord)
2. Ask Advice (Iron sharpens iron | seek wisdom from others)
3. Be Fair (Honest scales are God's delight)
4. Keep Your Priorities Right (Seek first God's kingdom)
5. Be Generous (Leave the edges for the poor)
6. Be Responsible (Honor your word and pay your debts)
๐ FEATURED STORIES:
- Brother Lawrence and practicing God's presence while flipping pancakes
- A Colombian restaurant owner who lost everything to keep his integrity
- Jephthah's terrible vow and what it teaches about honoring your word
- Why the Macedonians begged to give even though they were poor
๐ก KEY TAKEAWAY:
Your business IS God's business. Don't take a timeout from being a Christian when you clock in. Let Jesus permeate your work, your conversations, and your decisions, even when it costs you.
Whether you're a business owner, employee, barber, or pastor working part-time, this episode will challenge you to stop compartmentalizing your faith and start living consistently in every room of your house.
