ARE YOU READY TO ACCELERATE YOUR BUSINESS?

Ep. 45 — Integrating Faith and Practical Wisdom in Business

SHARE

Do you ever find yourself wishing for guidance in the daily grind of business? Well, buckle up because today we’re here to share some wisdom and inspiration on how to integrate your faith with running a business.

Whether you’re practicing honesty with clients, treating your team with compassion, or making tough ethical decisions, running a business can present challenges. But the bible gives us so many principles we can apply for wisdom and strength.

In this podcast, we discussed several biblical themes and how we seek to live them out in our own companies. First up was the importance of integrity. Proverbs 11:3 reminds us “The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity.” For us, that means being transparent with clients and putting their needs first with humility.

We also talked about treating employees justly, as Colossians 4:1 says. That could mean paying a fair wage, providing growth opportunities, and fostering a healthy work environment. After all, your employees are critical to your success.

Making ethical decisions was another key topic. James 1:5 promises God’s wisdom for anyone who asks, so we seek guidance through prayer, scripture, and wise mentors. Sometimes it’s that inner peace about a course of action. Documenting your decisions can also help stay accountable later on.

Additionally, Matthew 20:28 calls us to serve others as Jesus did. As leaders, we have platforms to not only help clients but also support causes. Giving financially or volunteering are great ways to pay it forward.

Finally, we touched on stewardship of resources. Luke 16:10 stresses faithfulness over much and little. That means watching your spending, honoring your tithes, and giving generously as God provides for you.

We’d love to hear how you apply scripture principles in your own business. Leave us a comment or email at msbizpod@gmail.com. May we all walk in wisdom and integrity as we serve the Lord through our work.
