One choice can tilt a career, a company, even a legacy. We dig into how leaders decide under pressure and why a simple framework—clarify, consult, consider, create, criticize—can turn uncertain moments into wise action. From Netflix’s pivot and Blockbuster’s miss to Decca passing on the Beatles, we connect real business stories to timeless biblical wisdom, showing how decisions reflect values, shape culture, and determine outcomes.
We begin by naming the decision clearly: purpose, objectives, and constraints. That clarity anchors everything that follows. Then we talk about counsel—what Proverbs calls the safety of many advisors—and why leaders often avoid it due to ego, insecurity, or overconfidence. We walk through grounding decisions in Scripture, seeking the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and gathering experienced voices who will tell us the hard truth. The goal is not consensus; the goal is wisdom.
From there we evaluate options against goals, motives, core values, and mission, considering second-order effects and the rare times when waiting is the wisest move. We move into planning with conviction, translating decisions into owners, timelines, and resources, and we draw the line between a bad decision and a good decision executed poorly. Finally, we build feedback loops, learn from misses, and remember that experience—often earned through failure—powers better choices next time. If you lead a team, run a business, or carry a calling, this conversation will help you decide with courage and clarity, guided by God’s Word and the Holy Spirit.
