Many of us are familiar with or have even been on “Vision Trips.” The idea is to get to an area or a country to see a need and hopefully hear from God about a way to engage. Many full time missionaries have started out this way. In the world of BAM, many businesspeople have also begun this way—they may not leave their job or move to another country but their hearts are captured for the Kingdom Impact that business can make around the world. Personally, I've taken hundreds of business people to the 10/40 window to teach business in the Jholdas Project Business Incubator program (the work of International Micro Enterprise Development or IMED since 1998) and almost every single person has been changed and their eyes open to what God is doing through real business. This episode takes Vision Trips to a new level. Sandra Lynn, marketing consultant to companies in many lands, decided that God didn't want her to wait on a group or an organized trip from a BAM group. Instead, God led her to go out on her own (not alone) and see what He had in store for her. This is her story and she tells it best. Listen and share this episode with a friend.You can learn more about Sandra's business, Vertical Ventures at this site, http://Verticalventures.cc, or contact her directly at sandrasoffice@gmail.com.If you've enjoyed the Business as Mission podcast, please follow us so you won't miss any episodes and give us a rating wherever you listen.

What if your season of waiting isn't a setback, but a setup for something greater? In the final installment of The Book of James series, Pastor Travis delivers a powerful and hope-filled message: waiting time is not wasted time. When we're waiting—on healing, breakthrough, purpose, or a promise—we often feel like nothing is happening. But the truth is, God is working behind the scenes, refining us, strengthening our faith, and preparing us for what's next. Just like a farmer patiently waits for the harvest, trusting the unseen process, we too must trust that God's timing is perfect. Through the stories of Joseph, Habakkuk, and Hannah, Pastor Travis reminds us that every great move of God is preceded by a season of waiting. And just like lifting heavy weights builds strength, the weight of trials is actually building us up, not breaking us down. Jesus Himself carried the ultimate weight—the cross—showing us that even our heaviest burdens have purpose. You don't have to carry them alone. There is power in trusting God, in community, and in prayer. If you're in a season of waiting, don't lose hope—your miracle, your breakthrough, your harvest is coming. Don't miss this message. It might just change the way you see waiting forever.

Reflecting on the Christmas spirit, they ask: What can you uniquely do to make a difference this year? We're reminded that even small, neighborly gestures can bring immense joy as the duo discusses practical ways to bless others, from making a thoughtful phone call to helping foster children gain a sense of belonging. Find a need and fill it—whether through time, resources, or simply a listening ear. Bruce is a big advocate of Wraparound Grandparenting, where retirees support foster and adoptive families with love and stability. The message is clear: while we all have different abilities, everyone can bring hope to someone else's life, which is what the Church is called to do! Above all, the episode emphasizes loving your neighbor, not just at Christmas but all year long. Whether you're retired, working, or somewhere in between, there's a unique way for you to spread joy. After all, the heart of the season is living out Christ's love. www.RetirementReformation.orgSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was so good to hear inspiring and challenging messages from each of them as we continued our series “BeCAUSE of Eternity.” Each of us can live life in such a way that we set in motion a Kingdom legacy. We are inspired by our heroes and guides, and we each have someone that is watching how we live life. We can each craft a “Kingdom Legacy List” with goals regarding our generosity, our marriage, our children and/or grandchildren, and our involvement in the Great Commission. All of us can position our life for significance and Kingdom legacy! If you couldn't join on Sunday, check out Pastor Nathan Grams' message at Emmanuel Spring Lake Park.

Hey Friend! Simple Passive Income-> https://www.claimingsimplicity.co/ Today, we dive deep into what it means to truly live for God's purpose in every area of our lives. We are going to explore a powerful truth: Money means nothing if you don't know what you're going to do with it. If our hearts aren't aligned with God's Kingdom, even financial success can feel empty. So let's talk about creating an impact that lasts, not just in this life but in eternity." Matthew 6:19-21 (NIV): Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. We live in a world that tells us success is measured by our bank account or the things we own. But Jesus flips that on its head. He reminds us that true wealth is found in heavenly treasures, not earthly ones. What are those heavenly treasures? It's the impact we make in the lives of others, the love we give, the way we bring God's Kingdom to earth. This may convict you as you look at the amount you give to God's Kingdom. Money is not evil, but what you do with your money matters. As you give freely, God gives freely. We have seen this over and over again. If we are praying about how much to give in a certain situation and the Holy Spirit gives a large number that seems out of reach to give to something. God always returns it in different ways as we listen and are obedient. Do not be someone that clenches your fist closed, but someone that lives with an open hand of generosity…..that is when you will see money easily flow in and flow out. We live frugally so we can give freely. I don't care if I have new vehicles or material items as trying to impress others isn't my jam~I would rather be walking the straight, narrow, and obedient path with God because that is really the only way to find real lasting peace and joy. Let's get real for a moment. Money can provide comfort and security, but it's not the end goal. If we chase wealth without knowing why we want it, we can easily lose sight of what's truly important. As Christians, we need to ask ourselves: How are we using our resources—whether time, talent, or money—for God's glory? Luke 16:10 (NIV) says, Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.' This teaches us that it's not about how much you have; it's about how you use what God has given you. Like I said before~Money in itself isn't evil. It's a tool. It can be used for good, to bless others, to grow ministries, to support families in need. But if we're not intentional about making a Kingdom impact, that tool can become a trap. The real question is: What impact are you making? Are we using your resources to spread the gospel, to serve others and to make the world a reflection of God's love? In Proverbs 11:25, it says, A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.' When we focus on pouring into others, God pours back into us. So how do we start creating a Kingdom impact with the resources we have? Here are a few practical steps: Align Your Finances with Your Faith: Make sure you're giving back—whether it's to your church, missionaries, or charitable causes. Tithing is more than just a financial transaction; it's a declaration that God comes first. Invest in People, Not Things: Use your resources to lift others up. This could be by mentoring someone, giving to those in need, or simply being there for people in your community. Your time is just as valuable as your money. Pray for Wisdom: James 1:5 tells us to ask for wisdom, and God will provide it generously. Pray for discernment in how you manage your resources and where God is calling you to invest for His Kingdom." There was a time in my life when I was focused on financial goals, thinking that would bring me peace. But no matter how much I earned, there was a hole that nothing could fill. It wasn't until I started using my resources to help others that I found true joy and fulfillment. The Bible was right all along: It's more blessed to give than to receive (Acts 20:35) 2 Corinthians 9:8 (NIV): 'And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.' "God is not only concerned with blessing us financially but also empowering us to use that blessing to create a lasting impact in His Kingdom. When we keep our eyes on Him and His purpose, everything else falls into place." So I want to leave you with a challenge this week. Take some time to pray and ask God where He is calling you to make an impact. It could be with your time, your talents, or your finances. Remember, money means nothing if it's not used for a higher purpose, and that purpose is to glorify God and expand His Kingdom. If you are ready to start your online journey to impact His kingdom with other like minded Christians, I will put the link in the show notes. The Bible if full of so many verses regarding money! Thank you for tuning in today. If this episode blessed you, share it with someone who needs encouragement today. Let's go out and make an eternal difference! Until next time, stay blessed, and keep your eyes on the true prize—making an impact for God's Kingdom
