When thinking of a leader who will fight and overcome present problems, and evil, people think of a military or political leader. One that will sort out the issues that the people have allowed to happen over time. This type pf leadership, however, falls short, as it fails to recognize the need for internal change. Fighting and overcoming evil is a matter of the individual heart.

Cain lived in the flesh. Abel was righteous. For this, he was murdered by his brother. People who are morally upright expose and shame those who aren't. When we live for God, the world will often hate us because we make it painfully aware of how immoral it is. This sounds brutal and you might think how this would apply to the business world. Let’s start to unpack.

Simon, a young and simple fisherman with a one-man band leadership style, who at times was bold and impulsive, had a great deal to unlearn before he became apostle Peter, a ‘fellow elder’ who shepherded the community of the early church.

If we continue to clutter the sabbath with work, we are rejecting God’s gift to free people. We are returning to Egypt voluntarily, saying that we want to be a slave. We are choosing bondage over freedom.

Freedom. Humanity's greatest longing. People want to be free from everything that limits them in their lives, their everyday lives, what they think and do. It is paradox, yet the more a person fights for their own personal freedom, the more they become dependent.

Like the Psalmists, we can pray to God to intervene, and we can take an active, co-labouring role in bringing justice in our everyday lives – in private and in business. To practice (more) justice in and through a business, we need to look at our work and how we conduct it, our products and services, our purchasing habits, and our interactions with others, asking ourselves the question if all these are helping the vulnerable or if they are hurt or harmed.

Whether you are leading an existing business to continuity or starting a business, God has given you the idea(s) for your business for a purpose – to build a business that blesses not only you, but your community and beyond.

Overcoming adversity, building character and wisdom A story for people in leading positions and business owners. Joseph turned adversity into wisdom, all while building a strong character that kept him connected to his purpose.

In this post we will have a look at timely payment of employees, freelancers, and suppliers. Late payments or incorrect payments have been a persistent social issue throughout human history. The Bible emphasizes the importance of treating employees, freelancers, and suppliers with respect, making sure that they receive their due compensation without delay.

In this post, we look at the 'buy now, pay later' option, which is particularly popular among young people, and examine whether offering such a payment option is consistent with the principles of the Kingdom of Heaven.   A business can offer the 'buy now, pay later' option in their store through a payment provider. This option allows customers to make purchases without having to pay directly.

A reputation for honesty is worth more than the money we can gain by risking it. The business practices of the times have had a profound impact on the markets. There are some business practices that people have accepted as standard, but which do not conform to the principles of the Kingdom of God.

May God's peace and blessings be with you.  It's wonderful that you've found your way to this post today. This post addresses the question how a community and its members can prosper using God’s given entrepreneurial talents. When God blesses us, He intends for the blessings to overflow to others.
