God's Businessmen by Sarah Ruth Hammond Pdf

The evangelical embrace of conservatism is a familiar feature of the contemporary political landscape. What’s less well-known, however, is that the connection predates the Reagan revolution, going all the way back to the Depression and World War II. Evangelical businessmen at the time were quite active in opposing the New Deal—on both theological and economic grounds—and in doing so claimed a place alongside other conservatives in the public sphere. Like previous generations of devout laymen, they self-consciously merged their religious and business lives, financing and organizing evangelical causes with the kind of visionary pragmatism that they practiced in the boardroom. In God’s Businessmen, Sarah Ruth Hammond explores not only these men’s personal trajectories but also those of the service clubs and other institutions that, like them, believed that businessmen were God’s instrument for the Christianization of the world. Hammond presents a capacious portrait of the relationship between the evangelical business community and the New Deal—and in doing so makes important contributions to American religious history, business history, and the history of the American state.

God, You Said... by James L. Standfield Pdf

THIS BOOK IS A MUST READ FOR EVERY CHRISTIAN BUSINESS OWNER... God has called you for such a time as this! In this powerful book, Min. James L. Standfield, "The Authority On Biblical Entrepreneurship" gives the Christian Entrepreneur the scriptures they need for Entrepreneurial Success. I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; They shall never hold their peace day or night. You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent, And give Him no rest till He establishes. Isaiah 62:6-7 The Hebrew word for "make mention" is zakar and means to remember, to remind, to cause to remember. "You who make mention of the LORD" are literally the Lord's remembrancer's. Their job is to remind Him relentlessly of His word until He has established what He has promised. God has a wonderful memory, but He is not one bit offended by His people reminding Him of those things He has spoken. How long are we to remind God of His promises? He tells His watchmen to give Him no rest until He establishes what He has promised. This calls for faith, patience and persistence. The Christian Entrepreneur is not to give up on reminding God of His Word until they see all the things He has promised to establish in their business.

Devotion for Entrepreneurs by Hanna Atiase Pdf

Devotion For Entrepreneurs is designed for individuals who are keen on doing business God's way. Kingdom Entrepreneurship is about connecting your business to God's ultimate purpose and carrying the glory of God into the marketplace. The book of Haggai specifically refers to building God's temple so He will be pleased and glorified. As Kingdom entrepreneurs, you have a mandate to advance God's Kingdom agenda. Haggai 2:23 says; I will take you . . . and will make you like a signet ring; for I have chosen you. Ancient kings used their signet ring to stamp documents as a form of their approved signature. In other words, Entrepreneurs are God's signature in the marketplace.This devotion will help you understand your divine purpose as Christian Entrepreneurs. You will be able to understand and apply the kingdom principles in the marketplace. As you spend time in this devotion during your covenant time, your mind-set will be renewed to the word of God concerning the marketplace. As you meditate on the Word, you will have an encounter with Jesus the Businessman, and receive divine instructions from God the CEO. As an entrepreneur you will be challenged to surrender your business to God. This means that you are no longer the CEO; you are the vice president. You are responsible for stewarding your business, but the business direction comes from God the CEO. Multimillion dollar ideas will be released from the Holy Spirit, your senior partner, who will teach you to profit (Isaiah 48:17). Through sweet fellowship with the Holy Spirit you will have a vivid understanding of the underlying mandate for your business. When you are able to connect your business to Gods ultimate purpose you will experience sustenance, profitability and increase, etc. Ultimately, it's about doing business God's way.
