271: The Social Media Hamster Wheel vs. High Value Legacy Content
God Centered Success | Faith and Business
Posting every day. Chasing the trending audio. Making one more clip that's dead by tomorrow morning. And then getting up and starting over. That's the wide path. It works for some people, and I'm not going to pretend it doesn't. But I don't think it's the one God called you to. In this episode I'm sharing what happened when my entire YouTube platform got shut down two hours after I posted my testimony of Christ. What I built in its place. And the one time I mentioned an application link on this podcast and over 250 women applied. I want to show you the narrow path. Long form content that keeps...

270: The Money Lie That Makes You Sabotage Your Own Revenue
God Centered Success | Faith and Business
There are many money lies believers fall for and are usually on one end of two spectrums, and most of us only ever learn to spot one of them. We know the prosperity gospel is a twisting of scripture. What almost nobody names is the overcorrection on the other end, where being broke starts to feel holy. Where undercharging feels humble. Where growing revenue feels like chasing money. I lived on that end for twelve years, and it almost cost me this calling. In this episode I share the lie God finally exposed, why revenue is an integrity issue for anyone called to business, and the math that...

He gives her very specific steps to take and after taking the steps just as he instructed she saw God do a miracle. If you need God to help you this is a great story in the Bible to learn from.

267: The Part Nobody Tells You About Beginning or Beginning Again
God Centered Success | Faith and Business
Have you ever obeyed God, taken the step He asked you to take, and then felt more discouraged than before you started? You are not alone in this, and it does not mean you heard Him wrong. In this episode, I'm walking you through something nobody talks about enough. The discouragement that shows up after you have already been obedient is not a sign to stop. Most of the time, it is confirmation that you heard God correctly and the enemy is working overtime to get you to quit right before the breakthrough. I share what this has looked like in my own journey, why the enemy attacks hardest...

If you are needing to overcome limiting beliefs as a Christian entrepreneur, this episode is for you. These five lies did not just show up once in my life.

And they are showing up again right now as I rebuild and step back into this calling after going quiet for a season. So when I tell you I had to overcome these limiting beliefs as a Christian...

265: Let Your Light Shine Without Pressure, Performance or Perfection

Let your light shine free from pressure, performance of perfection. God has called us to be the light and we can’t do that when we are living under the pressure and performance of the world. When we keep our eyes on God and His will for our life, when we focus on this present moment and are intentional about letting God shining through us in this moment we will see the fruit of the spirit come out of us. But when we are so caught up in getting somewhere and so caught up in what others think of us our light is dimmed. This episode will encourage you to prosper right where you are and let your...

info_outlineThere are many money lies believers fall for and are usually on one end of two spectrums, and most of us only ever learn to spot one of them.
We know the prosperity gospel is a twisting of scripture. What almost nobody names is the overcorrection on the other end, where being broke starts to feel holy. Where undercharging feels humble. Where growing revenue feels like chasing money.
I lived on that end for twelve years, and it almost cost me this calling.
In this episode I share the lie God finally exposed, why revenue is an integrity issue for anyone called to business, and the math that changed how I see this entire assignment.
Key points
- The enemy does not invent new lies. He twists what is true and asks the same question he asked in the garden.
- The prosperity gospel and the poverty gospel sit on opposite ends of one spectrum, and both put money at the center instead of God.
- Both sides judge the other. One questions the faith of people with little. The other quietly feels more godly than people with much.
- The business calling is different from an employment calling. In business you create solutions, make offers, sell, and generate revenue.
- Undercharging and refusing to sell is not humility. It leads to debt, not godliness.
- Mia gave her life to Christ as a business coach obsessed with money, then spent a year in a mission equipping discipleship school where entrepreneurship was never presented as a calling.
- She could not go to the mission field due to an autoimmune diagnosis. She got the instruction to start the podcast instead, with no confirmation from anyone around her.
- The podcast grew slowly, then multiplied, and listeners began writing to say they had given or rededicated their lives to Christ.
- She wavered for twelve years over whether teaching business was worth her time at all.
- The math resolved it. One thousand women at six figures, giving ten percent, moves millions into the kingdom every year, plus a thousand new platforms for the gospel.
- God did send her to a mission field. It was her hometown in New Mexico, where most of her family came to Christ.
Key scriptures
Genesis 3:1 (NKJV) Has God indeed said, 'You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?
Matthew 6:24 (NKJV) No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.
1 Timothy 6:10 (NKJV) For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.
Philippians 4:12 (NKJV) I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry.
Proverbs 22:7 (NKJV) The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
2 Kings 4:1 to 7 (NKJV) The widow, the oil, and the instruction to sell
2 Corinthians 9:8 (NKJV) And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.
Key takeaway points
1. There are two money lies, not one.
Apply it: Be honest about which end you have been living on. If you have been treating your lack as evidence of humility, write that belief down in one sentence and look at it in the light.
2. Revenue is integrity in the business calling.
Apply it: Look at your pricing and ask whether the number came from value or from fear. If it came from fear, raise it on the very next conversation you have. Then make one real offer this week, with a price, to a real person.
3. Your assignment will not look like the ones modeled around you.
Apply it: Notice whose voice you have been letting interpret your calling. Ask God directly what your assignment is, and be willing for the answer to look nothing like the person next to you.
