    A Desperate Need for God

    We explore one of the core traits of godly leadership: Brokenness. This chapter opens with a story about Jason, a fictional character embodying the struggles many leaders face when pride and self-sufficiency creep in. His journey shows how brokenness and dependence on God are essential for lasting influence. Key Takeaways:The Danger of Self-SufficiencyJason’s story highlights how pride can lead to isolation, even when outward success is evident. His struggles serve as a reminder that self-sufficiency is a subtle but dangerous trap.What is Brokenness?Brokenness is a conscious, ongoing awareness of your need for God in all things. It’s not a one-time event but a lifestyle that keeps you humble and dependent on Him.Inadequacy as a StrengthFeeling inadequate is an opportunity to rely on God’s power. Leaders often face assignments bigger than their natural abilities, and that gap is where God shows up.The Role of Humility in LeadershipWhether young or experienced, leaders must guard against pride. The author emphasizes that godly leadership requires character over competence and dependency over self-reliance.Isaiah 57:15This scripture beautifully captures God’s dual nature: His sovereignty and His closeness to the humble and brokenhearted. He revives those who acknowledge their need for Him.Encouragement for Leaders:If you’re facing an overwhelming task, remember: There is always a gap between what you have and what God wants done. Let this gap drive you to deeper dependence on Him. Your inadequacy is not a barrier but an invitation for God to work through you. Next Steps:We’ll cover Chapter 3 in the next episode, so stay tuned! If you haven’t already, grab your copy of Leadership as an Identity . This book will challenge and equip you to lead with humility and dependence on God. https://a.co/d/hcoWf8X Our Sponsors: * Check out Happy Mammoth and use my code BLESSED for a great deal: happymammoth.com * Check out NetSuite and use my code BLESSED for a great deal: www.netsuite.com * Check out Quince: https://quince.com/blessed Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/blessed-bossed-up7264/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

    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. Don't Forget: If this podcast has blessed you, leave us a 5-star review and share with friends, family, or colleagues who might be encouraged by these insights.

    Leadership as an Identity

This entrepreneurship podcast is designed for Christians seeking to make God the CEO of their businesses. Today, we kick off the first installment of our new Blessed and Bossed Up Book Club, diving into Leadership as an Identity by Dr. Crawford L. Loritts. In This Episode: After finishing Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer, we’re starting a new book focused on the four traits of godly leadership: brokenness, uncommon communion, servanthood, and radical obedience.Dr. Loritts discusses how leadership is a calling from God, requiring traits that go beyond skills and abilities. The person God trusts with leadership is the person who can fulfill His divine assignments.We talk about how this book is especially timely as we approach the new year. Now is the perfect time to evaluate our leadership roles and focus on becoming leaders who honor God’s standards, not just the world’s.What We Discuss: Introduction to the Book:Dr. Crawford L. Loritts was initially hesitant about writing this book, believing enough leadership books existed. However, after teaching a leadership class, he realized the need for this unique perspective on Christian leadership.The Four Leadership Traits:BrokennessUncommon CommunionServanthoodRadical and Immediate ObediencePhases of Leadership:Learning (Ages 20-40): Focus on flexibility, growth, and remaining open to God's direction.Leveraging (Ages 40-60): Balancing success with humility, staying diligent, and not becoming complacent.Leaving (Ages 60+): Preparing the next generation by sharing wisdom and experiences while continuing to serve.Key Perspectives on Leadership:The importance of avoiding the secularization of Christian leadership and keeping a God-centered approach in all leadership tasks.Understanding that godly leadership is not about position or fame but about fulfilling God's assignments.Why This Book Matters: As Christian entrepreneurs, leaders, and business owners, it's critical to align our leadership with biblical principles, ensuring that everything we do is for God's glory and not for worldly success. This episode challenges you to reflect on your leadership style and commit to leading with purpose, guided by God’s direction. Next Steps: We will be covering Chapters 1-7 through December 2, 2024, before taking a podcast break.

    Purify your POV

    Welcome back to another episode of the Blessed and Bossed Up podcast, presented by Anchored Media! In today’s episode, Tatum continues the Bible on Business series by diving into the book of Ecclesiastes, offering a sobering reflection on the meaning of life, success, and our pursuit of wealth and achievement. This episode will challenge listeners to rethink their definition of success and provide much-needed perspective and peace as we approach Q4 planning. Key Points:Bible on Business Series: Tatum reminds us that as entrepreneurs, everything we need for our businesses—whether it’s marketing, sales, leadership, or mindset—is found in the Word of God. There’s no need to seek supplemental resources when God has provided wisdom and guidance through scripture.Ecclesiastes Overview: The book of Ecclesiastes is a deep reflection on the fleeting nature of life, offering a reality check for those of us striving for wealth and success. The preacher in Ecclesiastes reminds us that everything in life is like smoke—seemingly tangible but impossible to grasp.Striving for Success: Tatum speaks directly to those feeling overwhelmed by the pressures of success, career advancement, and comparison. The constant pursuit of material wealth and validation can leave us feeling empty, and Ecclesiastes offers wisdom that redirects our focus to what truly matters: obedience to God.False Teachings in Christian Entrepreneurship: Tatum highlights the dangers of prosperity gospel teachings that have rebranded themselves as Christian entrepreneurship. These teachings falsely equate material wealth and success with God’s favor, distorting the true biblical message. She emphasizes that success is pleasing God and living in obedience to His word, not accumulating material wealth.A Biblical Perspective of Success: True success is defined by faithfulness to God, not the world’s standards. Ecclesiastes reminds us that life’s pursuits are temporary, and only reverence to God and obedience to His commands will provide lasting peace, joy, and eternal rewards.Scriptures Referenced:Ecclesiastes 1:2 – Everything is meaningless, a reflection on the futility of life’s pursuits.Philippians 4:11-13 – Learning contentment in all circumstances.Matthew 6:31-33 – Trusting God for provision as we seek His kingdom first.1 Timothy 6:17-19 – Using wealth to do good and glorify God.James 1:2-4 – Embracing trials and suffering as opportunities for spiritual growth.Takeaways:Redefining Success: Success is not about wealth, status, or recognition but about obeying God and being faithful to His commands.The Dangers of Prosperity Gospel: Tatum dissects the false teachings of prosperity theology and urges believers to reject this harmful mindset. True biblical teaching calls for sacrifice, contentment, and obedience, not materialism.Perspective Shift for Q4: As we approach Q4 and begin reflecting on the year and planning for 2025, Tatum encourages listeners to adopt the correct point of view of success. This will bring clarity, peace, and alignment with God’s will in both life and business.Action Steps:Reflect: Take time this week to read or listen to Ecclesiastes. Consider how your own definition of success lines up with biblical teachings.Plan with Purpose: Use the lessons from today’s episode to adjust your mindset as you plan for the future, focusing on God’s will and not the pressures of worldly success.Share: If this episode blessed you, share it with a friend or colleague, especially if you're entering planning sessions for the new year.

    Wilderness Mentality #10

    Welcome back to the Blessed and Bossed Up podcast presented by Anchored Media! In today’s episode, we are wrapping up Joyce Meyer’s Battlefield of the Mind, diving into the final chapter: Wilderness Mentality #10: "I'm going to do it my way or not at all." Join Tatum as she reflects on the lessons learned throughout this book and the importance of obedience to God’s Word, especially when it goes against our natural tendencies or desires. Key Points:Obedience Over Sacrifice: Drawing from 1 Samuel 15:22-23, Tatum emphasizes that obedience to God is more important than any sacrifice we can make. God is looking for us to follow His will, not just do things that look good or feel right in our own eyes.End of the Wilderness Mentality: This final mentality is all about surrendering our will to God’s. Tatum shares personal reflections on how this mentality has shown up in her own life, especially when things seem to be going well. It’s easy to drift away from obedience when we aren’t in desperate situations.Self-Reflection: Tatum challenges listeners to ask themselves, “Has my prayer life and obedience to God remained consistent, or have I become lax because my circumstances have improved?”Personal Story: Tatum opens up about how she’s had to confront her own strong-willed personality in her walk with God and how being obedient to His commands, even in small matters, has transformed her faith journey.Legacy of Obedience: Tatum encourages parents and leaders to consider the long-term impact of their obedience or disobedience on those they influence. Using examples from her own life and Joyce Meyer’s, she illustrates how our actions can influence future generations.Scriptures Referenced:Psalm 78:7-8 – Highlighting the stubbornness of the Israelites and the consequences of disobedience.1 Samuel 15:22-23 – Saul’s disobedience and the importance of obedience over sacrifice.Ecclesiastes 12:13 – The conclusion of King Solomon’s wisdom, emphasizing obedience as the ultimate duty of man.Takeaways:Obedience is a Daily Choice: It’s not just about the big decisions, but the small, everyday instructions that God gives us. How are you following through on the daily habits He’s asked you to implement?A Life Rooted in Obedience: True reverence for God comes from a life that is rooted in obedience. This is our ultimate duty as believers.Influence of Obedience: Your obedience impacts more than just your life—it affects your children, your family, and others in your sphere of influence.What’s Next:We are starting a new book in our book club series! Our next read will be Leadership as an Identity: The Four Traits of Those Who Wield Lasting Influence by Crawford Loritz.
