What God Says About Business: Lessons from God's Laws for Kings
In this episode, David Schmidt explores Deuteronomy 17:14–20 and shares how God’s instructions for kings offer valuable instruction for business leaders today.
There are three things kings were not to do and the one they were supposed to do: Write themselves a copy of the law and read it every day.
Kings operated a lot like business owners today and these laws are principles that you can very much apply to your business today.
David discusses how these biblical principles will ground leaders in humility, guard against pride, and keep leaders focused on God in every decision.
The results of following God's laws: Success and longevity of your business.
One Challenge from Today:
