Finding Your Life Purpose
Why are you here? What is your life purpose? This is a blog with a Christian theme so you could simply answer that you're here to worship God, or to be a light that shines in darkness, or to live for Jesus.

Kingdom Business is Calling
You have a calling from God. You may not have realized it yet or accepted it, but you're called to something great. God is thinking about you. And He has a plan for you. "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11 I've struggled with this for a long time.

Why Blog About Christian Business?
Why a blog about Christian business? Good question...I'm glad you asked. In fact, I've asked myself that same question for more than a year now. Yes, it's been in the back of my mind.

US Debt is the Monster In the Closet
There is a monster in the closet. And it seems like everyone wants to ignore it. Notice how almost every politician wants to debate the issues, but almost none of them want the face the big issue. The US has mortgaged not only its own future…but at the same time much of the rest of the world. If you don’t think that the recession and the buying habits in the US will affect other countries,...

The truth is we can’t just turn off parts of our minds... [Read more]
Being Christian in the Workplace
When Stress Seems Unbearable, Remember the Lord is Still In Charge It’s easy to live a Christian life on Sunday morning. In fact, in the US, it’s pretty popular. It’s not till you enter the workweek that the trouble begins. “And whatsoever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men: Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for...

Kingdom Business Principle #1
Seeking God's Kingdom First Is Our Lighthouse “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 I love this promise. God tells us to seek first HIS Kingdom and His righteousness (his way of doing things) and everything else will be added to us. Even though I love this promise, it’s one of those that’s easy to forget in... [Read more]
What Bible Parables Mean to Your Daily Life
Stories Are Part of Our Emotional Connection Do Bible parables hold a relevance for you today? Of course they do. How often did Jesus teach in parables? “All these things Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable He did not speak to them” Matt 13:34, NKJV When speaking to the crowds, he ONLY spoke in parables…stories that illustrate a spiritual lesson.
