Most Christian entrepreneurs have been told the same thing: don't mix faith with business. Keep it professional. Keep it separate. Keep it quiet.

But what if that's the exact lie keeping you from the breakthrough — and the impact — God actually has for you?

In this episode of The Christian Entrepreneur Podcast, Cody and Esther go straight at one of the most common fears in the faith-business space: the belief that being bold about your faith will cost you customers, credibility, and opportunities. Drawing on Cody's story of leading an 18-year-old to Jesus at a business event, the distinction between living your faith authentically and using Jesus as a marketing strategy, and the biblical case for why Christians have an unfair advantage in the marketplace — this conversation will challenge you to stop hiding your calling and start operating in the fullness of what God placed you in business to do.

You'll walk away with a clear understanding of what it actually means to be a Christian in the marketplace, how to know whether God is calling you to be overt or covert in your faith expression, and why obedience to your assignment — not fear of rejection — is the only metric that matters.


In this episode:

  • Why the "don't mix faith and business" advice is costing Christian entrepreneurs more than they realise
  • The difference between living your faith authentically and slapping Jesus on your brand as a marketing tool
  • Overt vs. covert Christian business — and how to discern which one God is calling you to be
  • Why being bold about your faith might grow your business, not shrink it
  • The unfair advantage every Christian entrepreneur carries — and how to walk in it


"If God is for us, who can be against us?" — Romans 8:31
