Hey DUDES! We're tackling a real hot topic in today's episode of Operation Agency Freedom– the mix of Christianity and business, and yeah, it can be just as thorny as it sounds. We're spinning quite a yarn with my buddy Billy Sticker, dropping some serious wisdom on the not-so-saintly side of exploiting faith in the entrepreneurial world.
We're diving headlong into some of the shadier practices lurking in Christian circles where faith is less about love and service and more about manipulation for a quick buck. Billy – who's not only seen it all but wrote the book on doing business with a pure heart (The Blessed Entrepreneur)– is here to shed light on the blessed way to be an entrepreneur.
If you've ever wondered about walking the tightrope between making money and keeping your soul intact, this is the episode for you. We're not shying away from the big topics today. So if you wanna get the lowdown on doing well by doing good, and how to scale your agency's success without sacrificing your values, Billy Sticker’s insights in this one are pure gold.
Get comfy and hit play, 'cause we're about to take a deep dive into what it really means to serve God and people in the marketplace. Trust me, it’s a game-changer. Stay blessed and catch you in the episode! ✌️🙏
