Growth is good. But at what cost are you willing to grow?
Partnerships can be great, but not at the cost of compromising your values and culture.
Listen in as we dialogue with Rick Johnson who pursued a lucrative growth option and how it cost him dearly.
Having realized how compromise in his workplace was costing him his business, he sought the Lord, made changes, and stepped away from this growth opportunity.
Operating a business that honors God doesn’t mean you get it right all the time, but when you are going the wrong way, do you listen, adjust, and start going in a way that honor’s God again.
Compromising your values and joining together with unbelievers on a business level is not something we are to do according to 2 Corinthians 6:14. We cannot go out of this world, but at what level are we not to be joined together? It’s a line you need to ask God about and follow His lead.
Key Take Aways:
Don’t put God on a timeline to answer your prayers
Don’t go into partnership with an unbeliever
Listen to warning signs and friends that are alerting you when things are going wrong
Take action to make things right. Which may be ending a lucrative business deal
It’s not that you never make mistakes, but when you make them, what do you do to course correct?
Redeem Your Business Today by the Following:
How can we honor God in our business?
Follow God’s lead in your business. Seek to get God’s input with decisions rather than looking at things from the outward appearance.
One challenge from today.
If you haven’t given your company to the Lord yet, what are you waiting for? You don’t have time not to follow God daily.
