I'm not moved by what I see. I'm not moved by what I feel. I'm moved only by what I believe.

This is what drives the faith-driven founder who has developed the faith to move mountains and has removed unbelief from their lives.

Every day I speak with faith-driven founders who are unhappy with their...

A competitor offered me the CEO role at their company. It’s a pattern that has repeated itself 5x.

One with revenues more than 10x mine offered me the CEO role, a mid 6-figure salary, a 49% equity stake, and 50% of the profits.

The offers have come from competitors and turnaround clients. Eventual...

OH ... I can remember reaching out to Super-Successful Christians for mentorship — who wouldn't give me the time of day.

That feeling of rejection still stings.

Do you know how I've grown so close to Jesus? For so many years He was the only one who would take my call. Ha!

As a young entrepreneur ...

You can have the dreams and desires of your heart.

Here’s how.

Like you, I’ve always had dreams and desires for a better life. So I launched my first startup at 23 to go after my dreams.

In typical startup fashion, my plans were failing, both personal and business. Life wasn’t working out the way...

We all experience seasons when life isn’t working out the way we planned it.

It’s during these times this truth will open up the window of hope in your life.

Your future will be re-ignited when you come to believe this profound truth from God Himself.

>> Your future doesn’t get determined by your...

Can entrepreneurship be learned?

Short answer. Yes.

But the “Yes” is determined by ‘what’ is being taught and ‘who’ it is being taught to.

In my opinion, if you are doing the teaching, teach how to have entrepreneurial success with a great focus on building revenue and profitability.

Teach from ...

Here’s why I left the Church.

I realized Church wasn’t a place to go, it was a people. An Ekklesia.

Jesus gave us our marching orders in two of the gospels TO GO and make disciples of people and nations.

I began to realize it was time for the church to be re-imagined and leave the building.

So I...

Sometimes my plans totally bomb.

My annual CEO conference in Las Vegas is always a sell out. 100% full at $1495 a seat.

But I grew tired of bringing the whole crew out to Las Vegas and we decided to host it locally at the Ritz Carlton.

But as it turns out, my home turf is no Las Vegas.

A few day...

If you’re not being called crazy, you’re not thinking big enough.

God-sized ideas always seem impossible at first. They’re not realistic.

Your critics will remind you of this.

And without God’s favor, they are right.

But because of God’s favor, you’ll go further than people with more resources a...

There are two ways to wait on God.

Both require patience and faith. But you must know the difference between the two ways of waiting.

Here’s how it works with me for my business and personal life.

I make a request to God, like for a RevOps strategy to produce certain results. I receive it by fait...

When a business idea comes from God, the following will become true for you.

He will use you and your business as a ministry to the marketplace. The marketplace will become your pulpit.

Fact: There's about a billion people on LinkedIn alone. Start someplace. Start here.

If you are a secret-agent ...

Would you pray this prayer? Too selfish?

If you haven’t read the prayer of Jabez, it’s located in 1 Chronicles 4:10. This chapter is a who’s who in the zoo lineage, pretty boring and easy to skip through.

But smack in the middle of it it reads …

Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you...
