Oct 29 2024 12 mins

Since we live in the real world, each of us is aware of hampering chokepoints in supply chains—where an enterprise didn’t get the necessary good or service delivered as promised or expected. We certainly experienced that in the Covid era! But what about your workplace and your church—do you experience unnecessary chokepoints in the mission of either of those two organizations

Abraham #20 - Choosing to Live Out Your Identity

Oct 22 2024 13 mins

The travails of modern-day Israel tends to bring Abraham and his story to the fore in the minds of many Christians. Abraham is cherished by Jews, but the reality is that Abraham was a gentile! So, just who or what was Abraham’s “identity” in? And in this arena of heartfelt identity and focus, many Christians seem to have key identity loyalty to varied issues—from “pro-lif

Strategy #2 - Shakeability, Failures, Redemption

Oct 15 2024 13 mins

Isn’t it interesting that the Bible starts out with an epic failure in humanity? So, what’s going on there? Is a perfect God really perfect as One who accommodates failure from the get-go…and then lets the skakeability of families, tribes, and nations run rampant for centuries? Well, yes—God actually does that in service to the ultimate unshakeability of the Kingdom of His

Marketing #19 Differentiation: A Better Covenant

Oct 08 2024 13 mins

So, we know that Christians are called to ably communicate, telling neighbors and others what God can do in their lives—that’s called the Great Commission! When the questioning Pharisee Nicodemus approached Him, Jesus immediately talked about being born again and seeing the Kingdom of God. (John 3) That is all part of the New Covenant, the “better covenant,” as the book of

Finance Focus #31 - Making a Federal Case Out of It

Sep 24 2024 14 mins

When you were growing up and complained about a minor circumstance or injustice, did your parents say, “don’t make a Federal case out of it?” There’s lots of wisdom in that, much of the time. But it turns out, the executive branch of the U.S. government has been doing that in countless ways: taking perceived problems and making a federal case out of each of them, over and o

There’s virtually no possible way you knew Stevie Edwards, a man who died in relative obscurity in 2022. But years ago, God used a boy named Stevie Edwards to help re-vector Kevin Miller’s life. And God did that in a particular way that can be relevant to virtually every serious follower of Jesus Christ. Join Kevin as he recounts a personal event in his childhood that may well

Research-Wisdom-Action #26 – Mind the Gaps: Beliefs to Emphases to Practices

Sep 10 2024 14 mins

Have you suddenly looked down as you stepped across the gap between a train platform you’re standing on and the train itself—thereby avoiding the very real chance of hurting yourself? Well, then, you were “minding the gap.” And in every organization—from businesses to churches to nations—there are dangerous gaps between the organization’s beliefs, its emphases, and it

Sep 03 2024 15 mins

Hey, we live in an era of amazing supply chains in a place like America…all we need do is to take deeply-informed look at a Walmart shelf or an Amazon delivery! In previous episodes, we’ve also discovered that the most stunning supply chain is God’s! But wait…what’s doubly stunning is God’s providence of intertwining our supply chains, each and every day!

Abraham #19 - Faith and Unfilled Expectations or Requests

Aug 27 2024 13 mins

We published an earlier podcast episode that asserted that “you can be like Abraham”—in a whole lot of ways! Go take a listen or read. But do you really see yourself as someone who can straightforwardly respond in obedience to something very dramatic, say, like Abraham responded regarding the sacrifice of Isaac? In that regard, the Bible tells us that Abraham had an expectati
