What Happens When God Runs Your Business with Rick Johnson

What Happens When God Runs Your Business with Rick Johnson

Having started his business right after 9/11, Rick Johnson faced years of struggle and near failure.
God helped Rick succeed, but then he “put God on the shelf.” That didn’t go well.

After putting in 14–16-hour days, 7 days a week, facing multiple personal crises, and experiencing physical and emotional deterioration, Rick gave his business over to God—100%. With a humble attitude, he admitted he did not know what giving his business to God looked like, so he just prayed, "Show me what to do,” and God did.

11 years later, Rick is living his best life as God has blessed him with a positive, God-centered business culture that impacts everyone they contact.

Employees come in broken and leave healed and transformed. Customers, vendors, auditors—whomever comes in the door—are met with an opportunity to see God at work.

God has also blessed RC Fasteners with record sales, even after 22 years in business.


In This Episode, We Are Exhorted To:

  • Don’t work with God and then “put Him on the shelf” when things go well.

  • Go all in with God, not halfway.

The First Two Steps to Changing Your Company into a God-Centered Company:

  1. Surrender your company to the Lord

  2. Seek God’s face — Get to know His character and ways

Challenge: What is your focus? Are you focused on the fruit or the root? Are you focused on profit or investing in your people? Rick was directed to focus on building up his people, and profits and record-breaking years came as a by-product. Seek first God’s Kingdom — Matthew 6:33.

Seek to take things at a sacred pace. Move when God wants you to move. The key is to know God, spend time with God, and follow Him.
