Repost | Can You Love Jesus, Make Money, and Not Be Fake

Show notes

Key Takeaways:

1. Yes, You Can Love Jesus and Make Money

  • Jesus talked about money—a lot. Not to condemn it, but to redeem our relationship with it.

  • Deuteronomy 8:18 – “It is God who gives you the ability to produce wealth.”

  • Money isn’t the enemy—idolatry is. Your business is a tool, not your identity.

2. You’re Not “Less Holy” for Wanting to Earn

  • God wired you with gifts to createsolve problems, and generate income.

  • Making money in your business allows you to be generous, present with your family, and focused on your mission.

  • You can honor God in the way you earn, not just in what you give.

3. How to Make Sales Without Being Fake

  • Drop the script. No need for hype or manipulation.

  • Speak from experience, from truth, and from service.

  • Show up consistently and let your character market for you.

  • Proverbs 11:1 – “The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with Him.”

4. Business as Ministry (Yes, Really)

  • Every offer, post, email, or podcast is a chance to reflect God’s heart.

  • You don’t need a pulpit—you need to show up in obedience.

  • You can build a brand that’s bold, biblical, and believable without watering down your values.

Let’s Take Action:

  1. Commit Your Work to God
    Start your week by reading Proverbs especially Proverbs 16:3 and asking Him to bless your hands and heart.

  2. Check Your Heart
    Ask: Am I afraid of making money because I think it’s ungodly—or because I’m afraid of what people will think?

  3. Reframe Your Sales Message
    Instead of “buy this,” try:
    “Here’s how I can help you solve this problem, and why I believe it matters.”
