Prison to Promise! Trish Jenkins Ministries Trish Jenkins

Christian Business. What is Business As Mission and why does it matter? A Christian business is not about selling bibles and Jesus T-Shirts. BAM is the concept of all aspects of life, including business, being lived under the Lordship of Jesus Christ for his glory and aligned with his eternal purpose.  Business has a God-given power and potential for good in the world. Yet too often Christian business people have not been affirmed in their call to business. Join me this week on "Prison to Pulpit" as I interview Mike Baer, a pastor, entrepreneur, theologian, and executive dedicated to equipping a whole new generation of world changers, disciples in business making disciples. Bring your questions and comments as we explore BAM and the challenge of pastors and business leaders understanding how they can understand and help one another.

"A great and effectual door has opened" Did you see it? Obviously, the pandemic has been tough for churches. It challenged our traditions and disrupted our programs. Yet when so many Christian leaders have been crying foul about their right to gather in a building, Wesley Leake, of "Business Blessings" sprang into action to bring comfort and encouragement to a frightened world. He saw a "great and effectual door open." (1 Cor 16:9) Instead of asking "Why can't I?", Wes asked, "How can I?" What followed was a series of online initiatives to support, strengthen and encourage multitudes. 18 months on, I'm asking Wes about the journey from make-do equipment and know-how, to multiple ministries, prayer groups, business groups, coaching and consulting Christian business owners and all while teaching uni. He saw the need, not the obstacle. This interview will encourage you that your effectiveness in ministry starts with seeing a "Great and effectual door opened unto you".

You may know Ramon Ray as the Smart Hustle guy whose story of entrepreneurship, grit, positivity and smart hustle is magnetic. Today I'll be going behind the scenes to hear his journey of faith, what he has overcome and how his faith impacts his work. Ramon loves God and love people. 

Ramon is a PK, a pastor's kid and he shares his early life and his later struggle to find his own faith.  He shares about being a husband and father in church, yet not connecting with God and even experiencing depression to the point of contemplating suicide.  We discuss the concept of depression in church, particularly among mature men and what it sometimes takes to break free of that bondage and find refreshment in Christ again. It might be the motivation when a child goes astray, or it might be something else.  

Ramon talks about Entrepreneurial Depression. He recommends mentorship, having someone to talk to, getting professional help where needed and spiritual help. It is demonic as well as natural. An overload of stress leads to burnout and potentially depression. Yet there is often a catalyst that jolts us into seeking  God for answers we desperately need. If it's not for our own sake, it may be for a child who has gone astray. Ramon shares the habits that help him keep him thinking clearly and staying healthy. 

Note: Some depression definitely needs professional help and we encourage people to seek it. 

How do you get that passion back? Ramon can't say what will work for everyone but he does recommend you keep asking, keep desiring and don't wait for something negative to motivate you to change because you may not come back from it.  

This will be a fun and encouraging time. You can watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/trishjenkinsfaith/ https://www.facebook.com/trishjenkinsministry and on my personal FB page.

Two interviews. The first went to my secular business platforms, the 2nd for my ministry platforms. I thought you might enjoy both.

The first interview on infertility, how it is treated and how to be a friend (what not to say!)

The second interview with Pamela Rasheed on infertility going behind the scenes to faith based aspect of the topic. We explore how the church has both encouraged and discouraged expectant couples. We also look at how to support someone in faith and how the Lord answers prayers. AN interesting insight into the book of Ruth and the question of her barrenness is addressed. Was she barren or not?  The strongest prison bars are in your head! Evangelist Trish Jenkins should know, she's experienced  both kinds, and as a Christian!

Almost out of lockdown conditions. Allowed to remove my mask to preach, then put it on again. The message was about accessing the power of the most underestimated fruit of the Spirit. Trish addresses Covid 19 and the mental health affects it has had on the world and even the Church. Here is how to beat Covid 19's affect on our hope.

Pastors Cameron and Stephanie Ross invited Trish Jenkins to kick off the year 2021 with an encouraging message for Awesome Church, Bribie Island.

Rigid religious expectations make people legalistic and quietly resentful when their prayers don't get answered the way they want. The first thing to go is their joy and no one wins people to faith without that. Here is a lesson from my Hills Hoist about adapting to change that applies to business and faith.
