Summary / Are you broke? Meaning you don't have enough money for the things you need and desire.

Atlanta Recap / Some Christians vote Democrat, while other Christians vote Republican. Why? It is important that we understand the reasons behind this because Christians are at odds with each other over politics. This conflict has created a rupture in the Body of Christ and hinders Jesus' desire for His Church to be unified. However, to unify  Christians across party lines, we first must gain a Bi...

Sunday Service Online   (from October 9, 2022) — God speaks to us mainly through His written word and the inward witness in our heart. However, He is also in the business of giving us dreams and/or visions as part of our toolkit for direction for our entrepreneurial calling. A simple distinction I use between them is that dreams happen when you are asleep and visions happen when you are awake. Let...

Summary / I am a big believer in focus, because focus activity over an expended period of time produces success. I call this dynamic the "law of focus." However, the law of focus should not be turned into an idol that replaces the voice of God. While the law of focus is a great idea, it is not above hearing Holy Spirit. If Holy Spirit instructs you to change your focus, then break the law of focus...

Summary  — It is bound to happen at some point—you fall out of love with the vision God gave you. This is very common even though most Christians are afraid to admit it. However, this is not due to a lack of faith. It is a natural part of the process. When it happens, we have to commit to love the vision and take a much needed break for a little bit. Scriptures  — John 3:16 KJV, Mark 2:27 NIV Link...

Summary  — Research shows that each year millions of Christians leave their local church. They are not leaving Jesus, just the church because of frustration and burnout. This situation has been on my heart for a while and God has now given me the words to express why this is really happening. Simply put, it is because the vision of the local church is/was elevated above the vision of the individua...

Summary /  Business partnerships are powerful, and can yield better results than going it alone. But should a believer partner in business with a non-believer?

We have turned our live course, " The Art of Teaching The Word ," into a self-study course to help ministers and non-ministers learn the art of teaching the Word. In the Great Commission, Jesus told all of us to go out and make disciples by teaching others His ways. So, whether you're a pastor or a business owner, there will come a time when you need to open the Word of God and teach the Word to s...

Summary  — Mary's faith to conceive Jesus is a great example for us of how to stretch our mind and spirit to receive the vision God has for us. When presented with the greatest calling of all time (giving birth to the messiah) instead of doubt, Mary stretched her mind beyond human understanding and simply asked – How shall this be. Scriptures  — Luke 1:26-35 KJV, Matthew 1:18-25 KJV Links — CFE At...

Summary  — Have you been serving God and sowing seeds, but you're still broke? If so, you aren't alone.

In today's message, we address how to stop being broke and turn around your financial situation sooner than later. Scriptures  — 2 Kings 4:1-7 NLT, Matthew 17:27 NIV, Ecclesiastes...

Summary  — So God has given you a calling. But what type of calling? Is it a business, nonprofit, or ministry?

Summary  — To lead, you don't need to lose weight, dye your hair, change your eye color, or do anything else society finds attractive. Your ability to lead is not based on what's attractive to society, but the anointing that's on your life. This is critical to know because if you think (or even slightly think) your ability to lead is tied to looking like what society finds attractive, then you wil...

As you follow God's plan for your business, there is a multitude of decisions to make along the way. We encounter both minor and major decisions in our course. However, if you follow these seven (7) simple rules, you will always make the best decision possible. Rule 1: Never Make a Decision Based on Money If you make a decision based on money, you will be wrong 95% of the time. Only make a decisio...

Sunday Service Online   —  Jesus said that we would encounter many false prophets. However, most people who we call false prophets are not. They are just ministers who see things differently or make mistakes with doctrine. Real false prophets are teaching that we can live any way we want, teaching that there are multiple ways to God, are not teaching about Jesus, and are denying that Jesus is Lord...

Summary  — When family and friends don't see immediate results from your entrepreneurial calling, they may give you the advice to quit. Why? Because they don't have the faith to handle the challenge of your calling. Everyone's entrepreneurial calling is filled with challenges, and it requires faith to handle that. However, your family and friends weren't given the faith for your calling. God gave...

Summary  — Do you want the things you desire to happen with less stress and faster? If so, instead of telling God how to bring about the results you desire, speak the desired outcome and let God handle the details. This subtle switch takes the pressure off you and allows God room to work on your behalf. Scriptures  — Mark 11:12-14 NLT, Mark 11:15-17 NLT, Mark 11:20-21 NLT, Matthew 21:21-22 KJV, Ma...

Summary  — Submission in many households is a bad word, but it is a word God loves. We may be familiar with it in the context of wives submitting to their husbands.

Scriptures  — Ephesians 5:21-25 NLT, Genesis 3:6 NLT, 1 Timothy 2:14 NLT, Proverbs 15:22 KJV...

CFE Atlanta Recap — Searching through the Bible you'll find a vast difference between praying to God over a situation and using your God-given authority in a situation.

Therefore, we need to learn when to pray to God verses using your authority as a bel...
