The Christian Entrepreneurs Podcast

Annemarie admits this is something she’s done in the past, too. However, over the years she’s realized this is not the b...

Last year, I did a livestream with my friend and colleague Karen Culjak. She was also a speaker on my recent Summit – BEtheDifference on the topic: YOU: A NEW Creation in Christ and what that means.  The information Karen shared last year in November 2021 is still as relevant today as it was then. In fact, very much so, which is why I’m sharing it on this podcast.   Without any further ado, here’s...

You only need to look online to find numerous marketers talking about how you need to do this in order to get more clients, or this new bright shiny object is THE answer. Whatever the tactic, or whatever the bright shiny tool there’s one key thing that none of these marketers talk about.  And, that’s - just because you can – doesn't mean you should.  Just because you can (fill in the gap of the ta...

Welcome to another episode. I’m sure you’d agree that there are things being said and shared in the world today – that is in total contrast to what the Lord has said and what the Lord created.  In this episode I speak about something I’ve recently heard and how it reminds us of the Bible verse in Romans 12: 22 where we are told: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by t...
