5 Reasons Why Keeping God at the Center of Business is Good Business

As a Christian business owner, it can be easy to get caught up in the busyness and logistics of running a business.  Busy schedules, frequent meetings, and dealing with clients and employees quickly fill up your day. How often throughout your day have you stopped and thanked God for the blessing of owning your business or the success that you've had? Do you let God into your business and ask for his help? This can be hard to do.

For some reason, it seems much more difficult to bring God into the workplace than it does into other areas of life. But as a business owner, God wants to be right there with us, helping us make those big decisions, giving us the wisdom to deal with challenging circumstances, and blessing us abundantly through the work that we do.

So, what happens when you keep God at the center of your business and leadership? I'm going to briefly touch on five reasons why keeping God at the center is good for business. We could go so much deeper into each reason, but this week, I want to challenge you to reflect on each of these. Listen to your heart; bring God into your business and see how he works.
