Pastors are hypocrites!
Church for Entrepreneurs
Many believers are shocked when a pastor has a moral failure, and sometimes that shock can cause them to question their faith. But we must recognize that every pastor, like every human being, has hypocritical tendencies. None of us perfectly lives out everything we profess to believe. This doesn’t excuse bad behavior. It simply acknowledges that we’re all works in progress, fighting against sin and striving to walk in the ways of Jesus. When we understand this, our faith can remain grounded in the Word, not in people. __________ Galatians 2:11-14 NLT, Acts 16:1-3 NLT __________ Partner...

God will remove His covering for our good
Church for Entrepreneurs
God wants the best for us; however, if we continue to live unholy lives, at some point He will remove His covering from us. When His covering is gone, we experience the consequences of our sins. His goal is not to destroy us with consequences but to allow the consequences to lead us to repentance and back to Him. __________ 1 Corinthians 5:1-7 NLT, 2 Corinthians 2:4-7 NLT __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

It looks like God, but it might not be!
Church for Entrepreneurs
For many believers, when we see an open door of opportunity, we quickly say that God has opened that door for us. For example, you may be offered a job making $500K per year and it appears to be an answer to your prayers. However, just because a door of opportunity is in front of you, that doesn't mean it's from God. We are led by the spirit of God, not doors of opportunity. __________ Romans 8:14 NLT, 1 Samuel 24:4–7 NLT, 1 Samuel 26:8–11 NLT __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

Doing the right thing doesn't guarantee an immediate positive outcome
Church for Entrepreneurs
Many people are frustrated because they are doing the right things but they're not immediately seeing the results they expect. In 1 Samuel 24 and 26, we are going to see an example of this. David did the right thing but did not receive immediate victory from his situation. The insight we are going to process is that we should do the right thing in spite of the immediate results. __________ Proverbs 13:12 NLT, Matthew 5:10 NLT, 1 Samuel 24:4–7 NLT, 1 Samuel 26:1–2 NLT, 1 Samuel 26:8–11 NLT __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

Your "Why" for success has to be rooted in pleasing God
Church for Entrepreneurs
Why do you want to succeed in business, ministry, or anything you do? Well, according to 1 Thessalonians 2:1-6, it needs to be to please God. If your "why" is anything other than to please God, then your why is shaky and will not give you a foundation to overcome the obstacles that stand in the way of success. __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

Financial success or failure is not an indication of God's blessing or judgment
Church for Entrepreneurs
In Malachi 3:13-18, the Israelites complained that God was blessing wicked people and righteous people were struggling. Because of this, they concluded that serving God didn't matter. The insight we are going to process is that from the outside looking in, the financial success or failure of someone is not an indication of God's blessing or judgment. __________ Malachi 3:13-18 NLT __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

You don't need a younger woman!
Church for Entrepreneurs
We are exploring Malachi 2:13-16 and Proverbs 5:15-19. In these scriptures, God admonishes older married men to enjoy the wife of their youth and not to divorce them for younger women. The insight we are processing is that our wives will physically change as they age, and regardless of their age, we should still see them just as beautiful as the day we married them. This insight focuses mainly on older married men, but this revelation also applies to older married women. __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________

Jesus didn't say anything about that!
Church for Entrepreneurs
Many of today's cultural issues, such as abortion, are not directly discussed by Jesus. However, in the limited pages of a book, Jesus could not have addressed everything we would encounter in life. Therefore, God left us with 10 guiding principles in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5. __________ Exodus 20:1-17 NLT, Mark 2:27 NLT __________ Partner with Us: Connect with Us: __________
