Are you ready for a new level of wealth your life? Here’s the fine print: results aren’t typical. In fact, they’re entirely made up. The Internet is filled with schemes that promise to take you to easy street, but they never do.
What does wealth mean to you? Do you desire bank-fulls of Benjamins, a big house and summers on the French Riveria? Those are the result of years of hard work, sacrifice, risk and tough decisions aimed at the singular focus of making lots of money. But here’s the thing—that’s actually not real wealth. You may be on this web page because you’re one of thousands who are grasping at anything that might give you an elevator ride to the top. We can’t make you rich in a week. But we share what real wealth is and how to attain it. You’ll know the truth when you study the Bible’s teachings on wealth.
We invite you to take a one-week journey to Real Wealth with us. Each day we will send an email lesson—one immediately after you sign up, and then one following each morning for the next five days. You’ll open God’s Word to discover where wealth is found, and how you can experience the wealth of God in your own life. We cannot promise this will result in a bigger bank account. But we can tell you that after this week, spiritually you will be able to experience wealth beyond what you ever imagined.
WHY WE DO IT
We are investing in you as a leader because we believe that grounded, faith-centered leaders are desperately needed for our country and culture. This kind of leadership isn’t built with books and seminars. It’s built one person at a time, through the traditions of listening, learning and shared experience. We invite you to partner with us in your leadership journey. Our prayer is that you will become a leader in your marriage, home and workplace that will impact the lives in your sphere of influence toward Jesus Christ—the greatest Leader of all.
A leader must learn how to manage, and if possible, entirely avoid debt. We carry as US consumers a total of $17.06 trillion in debt. We owe on credit cards, mortgages, home equity lines, auto loans, student loans, personal loans and medical debt.
We must measure to lead. Self-examination is integral to leadership. A leader who is not looking inward to see progress and pitfalls will not grow outwardly in decisions, relationships and vision.
In a nation formed specifically to provide freedom of religion to its citizens, something interesting has happened. Religious involvement in the US is at an all-time low. Replacing religion in their lives is political and social activism.
Fulfillment is the happiness or satisfaction that comes from developing one’s own abilities or character. A leader who knows his talents and skills are being put to good use and that he is growing personally and professionally has the mindset that he is stewarding his life well.
These five habits can be truly toxic, robbing you of your best effort, undermining your decisions, clouding your vision and distracting you from reaching your goals.
Retirement is something you’ve been thinking about it for years, planning for it, saving for it. There will be a time when you can quit work and enjoy your later life. But the Bible contains a great secret related to retirement that you probably didn’t know.
Sadly, on occasion we see prominent Christian leaders explode in spectacular failure. Prominent pastors of large and influential churches have resigned their roles in disgrace—this goes all the way back to the 1980s televangelist era all the way up to today.
The idea of learning from someone more experienced than you, and then living that out by passing it on to the next generation, is the crux of mentoring. Having a mentor will greatly enhance your life and leadership.
In some locations around the world, it would be dangerous, even deadly, to acknowledge that you are a Christ-follower. Faith-centered leadership has become increasingly risky.
God’s faithfulness is His reliability in doing what He has promised. In other words, we can count on God. In life and work filled with anxiety, disappointment, temptation, crisis, frustrations, hate, failure and adversity, we serve a God that we can rely on.
On the surface the story of Job may seem a cruel game. A faithful man, he suffers greatly, questions God, and receives God’s pointed response. How should we lead when faced with trials and difficulty?
