    God Is Able, But What If He Says Yes?

    Part 2What do we do when we’re waiting on God and don’t know whether His answer will be yes or no? In Part 2 of this conversation, we explore what it looks like to keep hoping and trusting God while we wait. Tatum shares the story of Hannah, the danger of deferred hope, and the importance of remembering God’s track record in our lives. She also shares a special testimony about leading her six-year-old son to Christ and how his simple understanding of the gospel reminded her of what it means to keep our faith focused on who God is—not just what He can do. In this episode:Why we shouldn’t stop hoping to protect ourselves from disappointmentWhat Hannah teaches us about praying with faithHow to keep track of God’s answered prayersFinding contentment in the things God didn’t give usShifting from “What if God says no?” to “What if God says yes?”Why our hope ultimately has to rest in who God isScripture: 1 Samuel 1, Proverbs 13:12, Matthew 26:39, Romans 5:1–11 This week’s challenge:Make two lists: Desires God has fulfilledDesires God didn’t fulfill that ultimately worked out for your goodUse both lists to strengthen your faith, contentment, and hope while you wait.

    God Is Able… But What If He Says No?

    What do you do when you have a deep desire, you know God is fully able to give it to you, but you also understand that He may say no? In Part 1 of this powerful conversation, Tatum creates space for an honest conversation about faith, hope, and the desires of our hearts. How do you continue believing for healing, marriage, children, business success, restoration, or any other desire when God never explicitly promised that specific outcome? This episode is a reminder that mature faith does not mean pretending you do not care about the outcome. It means bringing your real desires, fears, questions, and hopes to God while trusting Him enough to surrender to His will. Through examples from Scripture—including the Hebrew boys, Moses, David, Paul, and Jesus—Tatum explores what it means to believe that God is able, and still trust Him if the answer is no. If you have ever found yourself wondering where your faith should land when you know the outcome is uncertain, this conversation is for you. Be encouraged: you do not have to deny what you deeply desire in order to have faith. You can ask boldly, hope fully, pray honestly, and still say, “Nevertheless, not my will, but Yours be done.” This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation.

    Protecting Your Relationship with God While Building His Vision

    Tatum opens up about a season where the demands of ministry, business, and family started to make her relationship with God feel transactional instead of relational. Drawing on personal testimony, research on dual-role relationships and boundary theory, and Scripture (Revelation 2:2–5, Matthew 7:21–23), she unpacks why this shift happens to those called to "do business God's way" — and shares seven practical guardrails to protect intimacy with God while still walking in purpose.

    Tatum is currently under the weather and wanted to send you this reminder to disrupt well. -- Welcome back to another installment of our Bible on Business series! In today’s episode, we dive into the powerful message that Kingdom Entrepreneurs are Disruptors. Through the example of Apostle Paul in Ephesus (Acts 19:23-32), we explore how true kingdom businesses inevitably challenge cultural and economic norms, much like Paul’s ministry did against idolatry and occultic practices in Ephesus. Episode Highlights: The Disruptive Impact of Kingdom BusinessesPaul’s ministry in Ephesus created an economic and spiritual ripple effect, revealing the clash between kingdom values and societal idols like greed, idolatry, and exploitation. As kingdom entrepreneurs, we must be prepared to face similar resistance when operating with integrity and purpose.The Inevitable “Riot”Just as Paul’s ministry sparked a riot, modern kingdom businesses often challenge norms that are deeply embedded in the business world. From hustle culture to manipulative marketing, today’s entrepreneurs are called to disrupt these standards, knowing that resistance is part of the journey.Building Businesses with Integrity and ImpactTatum shares practical tips for maintaining purity in business, including transparent pricing, prioritizing purpose over profit, and incorporating charity. By staying rooted in prayer, relying on community support, and being intentional about leaving a legacy that glorifies God rather than self, entrepreneurs can build resilient, kingdom-focused businesses.Key Takeaways for Disruptive Kingdom Entrepreneurship: Transparent Pricing and Practices – Build trust by being open about materials, sources, and policies that prioritize integrity.Prioritize Purpose Over Profit – Support charitable causes or community initiatives, demonstrating that the kingdom purpose is greater than the bottom line.Root Yourself in Prayer and Community – Prayer and community are essential for navigating the challenges of disrupting worldly systems.Ensure a Legacy of Faith, Not Fame – Aim to leave a Christ-centered legacy by putting Christ at the center of all business activities.Scripture Reference: Acts 19:23-32 – Paul’s ministry in Ephesus and the disruptive impact it had on a society steeped in idolatry.Tatum encourages listeners to embrace the reality that as kingdom entrepreneurs, they’re called to disrupt the status quo. With wisdom from Paul’s journey and practical tips, this episode empowers listeners to courageously confront opposition, build ethically, and leave a lasting impact that glorifies God.
