The trouble with trouble i...

The spiritually blind, walk by sight.

But those who walk by faith, see.

Isn’t that an ironic truth?

God gave them a spirit of stupor, eyes that could not see and ears that could not hear, to this very day. (Romans 11:8)

>> But for us who walk by faith, we should be on a mission to release the bl...

We all have enemies, those who dislike us, or creeps who actively wish us harm.

For most entrepreneurs going after the big dream, your identity is defined by your progress.

But for children of God, it’s different.

Don’t get me wrong, we have the power and ability to create great wealth and we are doing it at scale.

But our miss...

People become hopeless when this happens to them … when they become faithless.

I’m not saying when people become faithless they stop believing in God. They become faithless when they are unsure of what God will do for them. Then faithlessness develops into full-blown hopelessness.

When you have fa...

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...

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.
