Here's a message to all faith driven founders.

Don’t come to us because you want funding.

You won’t get it.

Instead, come to us because you want help growing your Kingdom venture.

It’s what we do in our e-school and venture studio. Learn what “B” school doesn’t teach you!

We grow first.
We fund ...

When you connect the dots between business, purpose, success and faith, how you gather with other believers might change.

I used to gather with mostly strangers every Sunday to hear mostly monologues.

What I craved was dialog. Especially two-way conversations with other faith-driven founders.

Thi...

For every faith-driven founder scoping out new territory — what you allow yourself to see, will make or break you.

#1 Seeing the opportunities.

If this is a God assignment, something He has called you to do, you’ll see what God sees, the opportunity to solve a great problem.

God will send you wit...

My Success Expectation always precedes My Success Acceleration.

Let me say it another way, I walk entirely by faith, not sight.

As an investor/entrepreneur, this is my state-of-success.

When I plant something by faith, God always grows it.

For me, the big dream is always an assignment from God.

Consider yourself warned.

Here’s the problem with unbelief.

It will rob you of your destiny.

Unbelief is designed to kill, steal and destroy.

If you want the faith that can move mountains, you’ll have to evict unbelief from your life.

Unbelief is disobedience.

After all, God has commanded you ...

You can have the dreams and desires of your heart.

Here’s how.

I became a Christian as a young kid.

Like you, I’ve always had dreams and desires for a better life.

But I actually became a follower of Jesus Christ later at 23 when I launched my first startup.

In typical startup fashion, all my p...

Here's the Secret Power (anointing) of I AM.

God chooses who He chooses.

And this makes others mad as hell.

When God chose King David, he was just a teen.

Nevertheless, God chose David for a big job.

A David versus Goliath job.

Make no mistake, the battle was about power, politics and nations....

I see a pattern in faith-driven founders where the best learners were struggling.

And God did His best work in them through the struggle.

Most found themselves struggling between life seasons.

They were leaving one chapter behind and moving into the next.

The struggle is always about lack.

We made the INC 500.

And then God did this.

He invited me to partner with Him.

I said yes.

This was the first time one of my ventures made the list of the fastest growing companies in America. At the time I was co-founder and a pioneer in the software coding camp industry (learn to code).

While...

I often ask founders who are seeking VC for their plan should they not get funded.

I get a blank stare.

They've been brainwashed into believing that without funding they cannot succeed.

Total BS.

Their Plan A - Get Funded
Their Plan B - Grow Revenues and Profitability

(this is reversed)

Plan A ...

This post is about lies, and the liars.

In business, politics and religion — there are plenty of lies.

And when a person believes a lie, they are blinded from the truth.

They cannot defend the lie because there is no truth in it.

They are actually offended by the truth.

So they suppress the tru...

Here's life's success formula that NEVER fails.

For anyone seeking truth and wisdom.

It’s found in Jeremiah 17:7-8

- But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord

- Whose confidence is in him

- They will be like a tree planted by the water

- That sends out its roots by the stream

- It does no...
