Description

What are some ways you can build the Kingdom through your business right at home? 

In this episode, Jeff and Jarrod discuss: 

• Boldly and unashamedly preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.
• Freedom through obedience.
• Business to support the ministry.
• Take care of things at home first.

Key Takeaways: 

• Growth often needs to happen slowly and deliberately to support the leaders and the development of the community.
• Teach people to fish. Be willing to go on the journey with them at the necessary speed. Not everything needs to be done immediately. Change happens in God’s time.
• Start with your business. There are needs at home, not just overseas.
• Things can get messy when you run a Kingdom business because you become aware of people’s lives and challenges. Start there.

"What we know to be true is that sound business principles are the same around the world, and if a ministry is pushing back when you ask just simple questions about accountability, KPIs, and transparency, you need to ask more." —  Jarrod Brown
