This is one of those messages that is sometimes a little hard to hear...
..that we might not experience revival - that God might, in fact, intend for us (even our nation) to experience extreme hardship for the sake of holiness and a process of purification.

Now, none of us want that and hopefully we're all praying that we experience profound blessing from the hand of God - but it's vital that we remember that God wants us to a holy…more than He wants us to be financially healthy or prosperous.

But, as we see throughout God's Word…He owns it all and has every desire for us to experience His wonderful provision in all arenas of life - as we remain faithful and surrender to His purposes for His creation.

Webinar Topic: Aligning Values with Vision: 401(k) Essentials for Christian Business Owners

Description: Businesses like yours are the backbone of the American economy and one of the greatest drivers of financial stability for the average family. As a Christian business-owner you’ve dedicated your business to the Lord to manage it, serve your customers, and support your employees in a way that honors God.

Just like other aspects of your business, you can honor the Lord with your company 401(k) retirement plan! A 401(k) plan that includes faith-based investments allows you to optimize for tax savings, help your employees save for the future, and invest in companies that align with your faith values.

People will lie to you and you will knowingly deceive other people!

Maybe even pastors lie to you at times, because they too are fallible and prone to a scarcity mindset, sometimes lacking trust in God's ability to provide…people will tell you what you want to hear…there can be so much favoritism in the Church - especially for successful business people.

Are you ready to rise above and display the character of Jesus in your business, no matter what the consequences may be?

WEBINAR: Aligning Values with Vision: 401(k) Essentials for Christian Business Owners

Businesses like yours are the backbone of the American economy and one of the greatest drivers of financial stability for the average family.

As a Christian business-owner you’ve dedicated your business to the Lord to manage it, serve your customers, and support your employees in a way that honors God.

Just like other aspects of your business, you can honor the Lord with your company 401(k) retirement plan!

A 401(k) plan that includes faith-based investments allows you to optimize for tax savings, help your employees save for the future, and invest in companies that align with your faith values.

There is so much FOMO in our society and an overwhelming sense of pressure to discover our passion (our calling) and not missing out on achieving achieving world-changing success…to the point that we can get stuck and afraid to take any action.

On this episode, Ken Powell, host of FCCI's Pathway to Purpose podcast serves up a message from Liz Bohannon when she spoke at an FCCI International Conference. Liz is the founder and CEO of the socially conscious fashion brand Sseko Designs and is now the Chief Growth Officer of Noonday Collection.

Renegades: Break Rules. Find Freedom. REGISTER for this free webinar: https://shorturl.at/Hh0eX

No founder escapes the moment in their business when they realize what they used to do back then won’t work to get them where they want to go. And the only way to solve this problem seems to be to work harder, longer, and sacrifice more of your own life and satisfaction for the sake of the business.

In Renegades: Break Rules, Find Freedom (A Book for Founders) Benj Miller shares a counterintuitive approach to making needed shifts that will take a business to scale, AND allow you to re-discover your entrepreneurial freedom. Your businesses’ success and your freedom are highly correlated; on this webinar, Benj will give you the keys to getting there.

Our society is overloaded with messaging like "the sky's the limit" and "you control your own destiny".
