Profit and Principle
Applying biblical principles to the real-world challenges business people face every day. Profit and Principle takes you deep into Scripture and pulls out timeless truths about leadership, integrity, money, relationships, and decision-making — then shows you what they look like when you apply them where you work.
Each episode connects a specific business challenge to a biblical principle and gives you something concrete and practical you can act on this week. No fluff. No theory for theory's sake. Just Scripture applied to the pressures, decisions, and relationships you actually face.
Hosted by Dr. Darrell Stein, Bible teacher and host of Grasp the Bible, this podcast is built for experienced business people — entrepreneurs, owners, managers, and executives — who want to lead with integrity and build something that lasts.
New episodes every Wednesday. 10–15 minutes. Something you can use before your next meeting.
