Dave Kahle- Every Business is a Good Work

Published: Mon, 02/12/18


Want to come to know God?  Start a business.


    From the very beginning of creation, all the way through the Bible to today, God established work, and by extension, business, as the primary occupation of mankind and the fundamental place where he would interact with man and develop a relationship with him.

    If you are a Christian, and own or run a business or a significant portion of that business, and you want to create a relationship with God, look for him in your work.

    I realize that position conflicts with that often proclaimed by the religious establishment, which generally holds that you create a relationship with God through the services of the institution. For many of them, a business is a necessary evil which only exists to provide money for their institutions.  Unfortunately, a great many Christian business people have accepted that teaching, resulting in millions of Christian businesses and Christian business people never attaining the spiritual potential and Kingdom impact that God wants for them.​​​​​​​

Can your business become more?
Most Christian businesses never achieve their spiritual potential.
 
Don’t squander your business’s potential to be a powerful force in the Kingdom.  Join together with a core group of like-minded Christian executives, who provide each other with a support system; bounce ideas off each other and commit to helping one another grow their businesses.
 
I currently have two openings in my Christian Executive Roundtable groups. I’d like you to consider joining. 

It will impact your life and grow your business.

If you think your business may have potential to have a greater Christian impact, invest 30 minutes in learning about the opportunity. Send me an email at info@davekahle.com, and I’ll reach out to you.
    Let’s see what scripture has to say about it.

Ephesians 2:10
    For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

    This is one of the fundamental ways in which God works with his people.  He has prepared ‘good works’ for them to do and expects them to do them.  Not only does he expect them to do them, but he works with them to accomplish the ‘good work.” 

    There are numerous examples of him working with mankind in this way in the Bible. Here are a few:

•    Noah was given the task to build the ark and save the animals within it.  God then worked with him to accomplish it. 
•    Moses was given the charge to lead the people out of Egypt, and then God worked with him to do it. 
•    Joshua was given the charge to take the promised land from the inhabitants, and God worked with him to do it. 
•    David was given the charge to unite Israel into a unified kingdom, and God worked with him to do it. 
•    John was given the charge to prepare the way for Christ and enabled by the Spirit of God to do so.
•     Jesus himself was given the charge to usher in the Kingdom of God and was enabled to do so by the power of his Father. 
•    Paul was given the charge to take the Kingdom to the Gentiles and provided with the power of the Holy Spirit to do it.

    While these examples illustrate the grand movements of God as he unfolds his plan on the universe, they uncover a precedent in how God works... [click here to read the entire article online]
