God cares about your living environment

Marriage was never meant to be a trial-and-error process

Pastor Chat: I was watching a reel of a very famous actress who has been married and divorced multiple times, and each time, her marriage was destructive. She was explaining that her stance is that people shouldn't criticize her for not being able to keep a man because if she realizes she made a mistake, she wants the freedom to correct it by ending the marriage and moving on to another one. While she has the right to recognize her mistakes and attempt to fix them, the issue is that marriage was never meant to be a trial-and-error process. Many people, whether dating or married, treat marriage as if it's something to experiment with—thinking, "Let me try this and see what happens. If it doesn't work out, I'll just do it again." But that's not how God designed marriage. Marriage was intended to be a lifelong commitment—at most, twice, if a spouse passes away. If we approached the decision of whom to marry with the understanding that it is a one-time choice meant to last a lifetime, we would make wiser decisions. It's similar to being a 16-year-old excited to start driving. Imagine your parents telling you that instead of getting a "first" car, you're getting the "only" car you'll have for the rest of your life. How carefully would you choose? If it were just a first car, most teenagers would go for one that looks good and drives fast, not thinking about longevity. But if they knew it had to last forever, they would prioritize durability over appearance. In the same way, if we treated marriage as a permanent commitment rather than a trial run, we would make more thoughtful choices.

God has given us four things to grow spiritually

Daily Study: One of the most powerful things we can do while living on earth is to grow spiritually. The more we grow spiritually, the better we can experience God's glory in our lives. Spiritual growth enables us to overcome difficult situations and accomplish great feats. In this study let's learn about four things God has given us to aid in our spiritual growth.

Loneliness Is One of the Biggest Problems in Marriage

Pastor Chat: The greatest attack on marriage that Satan has orchestrated is creating loneliness within it. Many married couples feel isolated—they're not having sex, not engaging in meaningful conversations, living like roommates, constantly arguing, and struggling to like each other. This leads to a deep sense of loneliness. This destruction is so significant because, when God created the first marriage between the first man and woman, He declared that it was not good for man to be alone. He designed marriage to provide companionship and to combat loneliness. When a husband and wife feel lonely within their marriage, Satan has successfully undermined one of the original purposes God intended for marriage. If you're married, take action. Don't let Satan win. Go to your spouse, express your love, seek to reconnect, rebuild your friendship, spend quality time together, and restore intimacy. You and your spouse were created to be companions, never to experience loneliness together. Don't allow Satan to bring isolation into your marriage.

Don't allow the culture to convert you to their religion

Daily Study: A religion is a belief system that explains life to its followers. Every human and every culture has a religion. For example, one belief system says that humans evolved from lower life forms. Another belief system says humans can have sex with whomever they desire without rules. As Christians we have a belief system that explains how God created us and how He expects us to live. Our biggest challenge is to not allow the culture we live in to convert us to their religion because following their religion removes the power God has given us through Jesus Christ.

When we should or shouldn't judge other believers

Sunday Service: In our current social media culture, many Christians are judging each other over various theological and cultural issues, which makes Christians look bad and causes believers to walk away from the faith and non-believers to be less open to hearing the gospel. Thus, this is an important issue for us to gain a biblical understanding of when we should or shouldn't judge other believers.

Ministry Updates for the Week of February 17

On Wednesday, we had a great open forum at CFE, discussing current events in America, particularly the unprecedented actions of President Trump and the anxiety they are causing for some members. We had a meaningful conversation about navigating these times and reflected on how this season resembles some of the signs mentioned in the New Testament regarding the return of Christ. While I'm not saying Christ is coming back tomorrow, certain prophesied events seem to be unfolding, giving this time a significant spiritual atmosphere. During our discussion, we reassured everyone to stay calm and remember that God is with us. Even though this year may be chaotic, it is still the Year of Believe—Believe 2025, where we continue to trust in God's promises for our lives and remain in faith regardless of what is happening around us. This Sunday, we have our next online service, where we'll explore the topic: "Should You Judge Other Believers?" If so, when is it appropriate, and when is it not? Right now, within the body of Christ, social media has become a battleground of judgment, with believers criticizing one another over doctrinal differences. This has caused confusion, division, and hurt feelings, with videos circulating back and forth. We will turn to scripture to determine whether this behavior is appropriate and gain a biblical understanding of how we should approach these issues. Looking ahead, our next in-person gathering in Atlanta will be on March 15th at 10 a.m. EST. If you're in the area, I look forward to seeing you. If you live elsewhere, consider making the trip. These gatherings take place on the third Saturday of each month, so I hope to see you at one in the future. In other news, we successfully launched at least one CFE group last week, and today I received an email from another couple interested in starting one. I'm excited to see these groups growing. If you're ready to start a group, let me know. I plan to create a sign-up sheet soon so people can register their groups. These are your groups, but CFE is here to help facilitate their development. You can use the CFE name along with your city or location and access our technology for organization. I believe every CFE member should lead a group of believers. One of our greatest responsibilities as the body of Christ is to make disciples. The best way to do this is by gathering together, studying the Word, fellowshipping, and supporting one another. Discipleship happens when believers spend time together. If the Holy Spirit is leading you to partner financially with CFE, your support enables me to dedicate time to leading this ministry and helps sustain the technology needed for a global reach. As our partnerships grow, we will pursue additional initiatives God has placed on my heart. If you're already a partner—thank you! If you'd like to join in or sow an additional seed, pray about it. If CFE has been a blessing to you and you want to help it bless others through partnership, visit https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner. Be blessed, and I'll see you Sunday for our online service!

Lies subconsciously impact your decisions

Daily Study: We have to be careful about hearing lies about ourselves from others. Maybe your parents or teachers have told you that you would never amount to anything. Or perhaps an ex-spouse said that you had no value. Mentally we know the lies are false, but subconsciously these lies become embedded in our spirit and affect our decisions. Therefore, we need to intentionally root these lies out of our spirit. Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com

You have an abundance of do-overs

Daily Study: Have you made a mistake implementing the vision God has given you? Maybe you have made many mistakes and it looks like the vision is in jeopardy. If this is the case, don't beat yourself up over it. God has given you an abundance of do-overs. No matter how many mistakes you have made, God is not upset with you. Just keep going.

Are we living in the end times?

Open Forum: The discussion centered on embracing unique traits, managing anxiety, and navigating faith amid uncertainty. Pastor Amos highlighted the importance of self-awareness and balance, using Pastor Craig Rochelle's discipline as an example. The team explored work habits, content creation, and the emotional toll of external factors like social media and world events. Strategies for reducing anxiety, including fasting from certain conversations and focusing on faith, were discussed. The conversation also touched on biblical interpretations of current events, emphasizing God's guidance through chaos. Themes of unity, perseverance, and trusting in God's promises were woven throughout, with reflections on Joseph's journey and the significance of standing firm in faith despite unanswered prayers. The discussion concluded with a call to seek God's perspective, remain steadfast in uncertainty, and support each other through faith-driven action.

Take care of yourself first

Daily Study: Because we are children of God, we have an embedded desire to help others. However, before we can help others, we first need to take care of ourselves. If we get this out of order, we will fall and pull others down with us. Once we are whole and stable, we can truly help others.

Romans 13:11-14

Daily Study + Romans Series: Romans 13:11-14 urges believers to wake up spiritually, recognizing that salvation is nearer now than ever. Paul emphasizes living in the light by rejecting sinful behaviors such as wild parties, drunkenness, sexual immorality, quarreling, and jealousy. Instead, he calls believers to clothe themselves with the presence of Jesus Christ and not indulge in desires that lead to sin. The passage encourages a lifestyle of righteousness and readiness for Christ's return. Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com

I'm a sinner saved by grace?

If you don't understand the power that salvation had on changing your identity, you'll live life afraid of God.

Team teaching during CFE gatherings

Ministry Update On this week's ministry update, I don't have much to share. Everything is moving as planned and progressing nicely. I'm recording this update the night before our next gathering in Atlanta. Every third Saturday, we gather in Atlanta for our CFE monthly gatherings. These gatherings are designed not just for those who live in Atlanta but for anyone worldwide who is part of CFE. Tomorrow's message—or today, depending on when you listen to this update—will focus on what I got wrong in marriage and the lessons God showed me on how to fix it. This message won't just be from me. My wife will be sharing alongside me, and a few other couples will also share their experiences. My goal for these gatherings, particularly regarding the message, is to keep them conversational, engaging, and interactive. I want others to share insights and actively participate in teaching during this segment. These third-Saturday gatherings in Atlanta will feature a lot of team teaching.

They will know us by our love for each other

Daily Study: The body of Christ has more of a love problem, than a doctrinal problem. Many believers are spending more time trying to correct each other, than they are loving each other. A sign of a believer is not correct doctrine, but the love they have for another believer.

Are we under grace or law?

Daily Study: There is an ongoing debate among believers about whether we should follow the Law from the Old Covenant or not, since we are now under Grace. After studying the Scriptures, I am confident in saying that as New Testament believers, we are under Grace, not the Law. But does this mean we can do whatever we want? Certainly not. Listen to today's study to learn how Grace, not the Law, compels us to do what is right.

It May Not Be Easy, But God Will Grow You Through It!

Open Forum: Pastor Amos led a discussion on his teaching style, emphasizing the importance of learning and sharing, while Jamie corrected a Bible misinterpretation from the last Open Forum. The conversation shifted to balancing business and family life, with Monique sharing her struggles as a single mom entrepreneur and Anna reflecting on limiting business activities to specific times during the day. Pastor Amos emphasized contextual Bible reading, particularly regarding women's roles in the church and the Sabbath's purpose as a day of rest. Stephanie opened up about job struggles, feeling drained and unsupported, while the group encouraged her to trust God and maintain her spiritual foundation. The meeting concluded with Pastor Amos praying for strength, anointing, and the fulfillment of their aspirations for 2025.

Why Lot had no influence in Sodom and Gomorrah

Daily Study: As entrepreneurs who believe in Jesus Christ, we are not going to work only with Christians. This applies whether you own a business or work for someone else. Most of us will find ourselves working in or around sinful organizations. However, while you are there, you will either influence the culture or conform to it. In today's study, we examine this issue using Lot's time in Sodom and Gomorrah as a case study.

Is there a requirement for believers to tithe?

Daily Study: A question I get a lot is "Are believers required to tithe?" It is a simple question, but this question has caused church splits and furious debates. Some say yes and others say no. In today's study, we will walk through the scriptures together with the goal of answering this question. At the end of this message, I will share which side I come down on regarding the question of whether there is a requirement for believers to tithe.

Is Business Biblical?

Daily Study: In many action movies, the villain is the CEO of some large company that's trying to take over the world or do harm to make more profits. This is the case because society has bought into the myth that business is bad, so business is vilified. Even many in the church see pursuing business ventures as ungodly. However, what does the Bible say about business? In today's study, we are examining the scriptures to determine if doing business is Biblical.

Giving from a New Testament Perspective

Sunday Service: Confusion about giving arises from mixing Old and New Covenant principles. In the Old Covenant, giving was mandatory, with specific rules and a quid pro quo system—blessings followed giving. In the New Covenant, we are blessed through Christ, and giving is an act of love, not obligation. Both covenants distinguish between supporting ministers and helping those in need. Giving under the New Covenant activates the law of seedtime and harvest, where God increases what we have to meet our needs and enable further generosity. In the early church, giving was direct—ministers were supported by those they served, and the church did not act as a financial middleman to those in need. Today's focus on giving to "the church" creates confusion, which could be reduced by returning to the early church model.

Upcoming Events and Messages

Ministry Updates Today, Saturday Feb 8, 2025, I'm speaking a Singles Valentine's event for one of our CFE members. They're hosting the event here in Atlanta, so my wife and I will be ministering on relationships to the singles. Tomorrow, for Sunday service, I'll be ministering on biblical giving from a New Testament perspective. There's a lot of misunderstanding about what giving looks like and what it means to honor God with your money. I feel led to bring some clarification on this topic from a New Testament standpoint. Next Saturday, Feb 15, 2025, is our first gathering in Atlanta. This gathering is not just for CFE members in Atlanta but for our entire CFE family. It marks the start of our monthly gatherings, which will take place every third Saturday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. If you live in Atlanta, I look forward to seeing you next Saturday. If you don't live in Atlanta, I would love to see you at one of these gatherings whenever your schedule permits. I see this as a time of worship, Word, and fellowship—an opportunity for the CFE family to connect more frequently. For those who can make it, I look forward to seeing you on the third Saturday of the month.

Should we speak against ministers we believe are false?

Daily Study: We are at a point in history where the voices of many different ministers of the gospel can be heard all over the world through the Internet. With this great proliferation of voices, you are bound to hear minsters say something that you perceive to be false doctrine or just straight up lies. When this occurs, many believers are tempted to speak out against these ministers on social media, blogs, YouTube, etc. But should we? In today's study we will examine if we should speak out against minsters we believe are false.

Vengeance is a seed we cannot afford to sow

Daily Study: When harm (intentionally or unintentionally) comes to us or those we love at the hands of another human, our flesh cries out for vengeance. However, vengeance is a seed we cannot afford to sow because the harvest of the vengeance seed is death. The only person who can handle the harvest of vengeance is God.

Bookstores & Coffee Shops in Churches: Helpful Tools or Distractions? Plus, Other Thought-Provoking Topics

Open Forum: Pastor Amos led the discussion on church accountability and spiritual growth, beginning with a prayer and community announcements. He highlighted concerns about commercialization in churches, particularly the selling of items like coffee and the fundraising methods used for building and vision campaigns. While he was not entirely opposed to these practices, he cautioned that mega churches often risk shifting away from genuine spiritual growth and connectivity. The conversation also explored balancing church mission with material needs, referencing Judas Smith's shift from a traditional mega-church model to a community-focused approach. Participants debated whether bookstores and coffee shops in churches could serve as helpful tools or distractions from the church's core mission. Another key focus was leadership accountability and conflict resolution within the church. Pastor Amos and others discussed the need for high ethical standards among church leaders, especially regarding personal conduct and financial integrity. Tyesha shared concerns about inappropriate relationships within leadership, emphasizing the importance of background checks and accountability measures. Mary and Pastor Amos also raised concerns about the lack of oversight among some pastors, with Micah suggesting that every pastor should have a mentor or accountability partner. The group agreed that church leadership should prioritize transparency and teamwork to maintain trust and credibility within the congregation. The discussion also touched on personal spiritual growth, relationship boundaries, and overcoming faith-related challenges. Mary and Pastor Amos emphasized gratitude and heart posture in discussions about prosperity, while Ark spoke on the importance of discernment when handling conflicts. Participants reflected on personal experiences, such as Stephanie's journey of overcoming self-doubt at a recent conference and Jillian's decision to seek spiritual guidance regarding intimacy. The meeting concluded with prayers for group members and encouragement from Pastor Amos to remain steadfast in their spiritual and personal goals in 2025.

Keep the Word in your Heart (or Lose it)

How is the love of money the root of all evil?

We need both Bible and Spirit for guidance

Daily Study: God has given us two powerful tools to succeed in life and heed our calling. However, for these two tools to be effective, we have to use them actively together. It like having a sword and a shield. They are helpful on their own, but without using both together, you'll lose the battle. The two tools I am referring to are the Bible and Holy Spirit.

Does God want you to give your last to the church?

Sunday Service: We are exploring the topic of giving to the church. Many believers have been taught that giving everything they have, including the money they need to live on, is pleasing to God and brings bigger blessings. However, this misrepresents God's true heart on giving due to a misunderstanding of the widow's mite story in the Bible.

Discipleship Groups & Monthly Gatherings in Atlanta

Weekly Ministry Update This week, I want to share two important ministry updates. First, we had a discipleship group leader training last night. About 25 people joined us as we went through the scriptural foundation for starting CFE discipleship groups and the structure for these groups. The training went really well, and I'm excited to see the new discipleship groups that will emerge from these leaders. If you missed the training, a replay will be available. Simply listen to the replay, go through our discipleship manual, start Faith Leaders Ministry School, and you can start a group as soon as the next day. You don't need 10 hours or 10 weeks of training—just follow the Holy Spirit's leading and get started when He prompts you. We are here to support you, so be sure to watch the replay to understand the heart behind what we're doing. The second update is about the Atlanta gatherings, which will take place every third Saturday of the month. This has been on my heart for a long time, but I hesitated to move forward. After closing the Atlanta church last September, I wasn't sure if I wanted to commit to a regular monthly meeting. However, the Holy Spirit kept leading me back to it, and I now feel strongly that this is something I need to do. These gatherings are for both local and out-of-town members. Whether you live in Atlanta, Philadelphia, London, or anywhere else, think of it as 12 opportunities each year to visit Atlanta and connect with other CFE family members from around the world. If you plan to attend a particular month, let me know so I can prepare to welcome you. The first gathering will be on Saturday, February 15, from 10 AM to 1 PM Eastern Standard Time. These three-hour meetings will provide plenty of time for fellowship, studying the Word, and building relationships. Since we only meet once a month, it's a great opportunity to slow down, connect, and grow together. That's what's on my heart for this week's update. The discipleship group leader training was a success, and I look forward to seeing new groups launch worldwide. Also, the Atlanta gatherings are now in place, and we will be meeting at the Propel Center, the same location where we held the Clarity Experience. The pastor there has generously offered us the space for our meetings. If you feel led to partner with CFE, click here: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Your partnership helps sustain this ministry by covering the time and resources needed to operate. I am grateful for our current partners, and if this ministry has blessed you, I encourage you to pray about supporting it so we can continue to serve others. Partnership makes it possible for us to offer our services and content for free. The reason we can do this is because of the generosity of those who contribute financially. Partners are the driving force that enables Church for Entrepreneurs to fulfill its mission. Be blessed, and I'll talk to you soon.

Your sins are forgiven

Daily Study: You may need to open your heart to truly hear today's study because Satan has done an effective job of convincing believers that they are sinners. When you accepted Jesus as the Lord of your life, you stopped being a sinner and became righteous. This means all your past, present, and future sins are forgiven. You don't need to constantly ask for forgiveness, see yourself as unworthy, or wonder if you are going to heaven.

Performance Christianity does not please God

Daily Study: Do you pray because you are supposed to? Do you go to church because you feel you have to? Do you tithe or give because you think you're robbing God if you don't? I know I've done these things and felt this way before. This is because I used to be a performance Christian, meaning I would do things out of obligation. If I didn't pray enough, give enough, or go to church enough, I felt condemned. However, after studying the Word and gaining insight from the Holy Spirit, I've learned that performance Christianity doesn't produce faith or bring me closer to God. Let's discover how the grace of God puts an end to performance and changes our motives from obligation to love.

Calling is about purpose not provision

Sunday Service: God created us to pursue our calling, not to focus on meeting our own needs. Originally, God provided for us, freeing us to pursue our calling. After sin, mankind shifted to working for provision as a result of the curse. Jesus came to restore us to God's original design, where we focus on our calling while trusting God to provide. Provision instructions address our temporary needs, but our calling solves a specific problem for the benefit of others and makes a difference in people's lives and communities.

Encouraging Monthly Discipleship Meetings

Hey, CFE family! In this week's ministry update, I want to focus on the importance of monthly discipleship meetings. I encourage every member of CFE to join a discipleship group that meets at least once a month in their local area. These groups don't have to be large—three to five people is enough. The goal is to gather with fellow believers in your community to study the Word and fellowship together. This practice reflects how the early church grew and matured spiritually. Their growth wasn't dependent on large Sunday services with thousands in attendance. Instead, they met regularly in small groups, studying the Word, praying, and building each other up through close fellowship. This year, I encourage all of us, myself included, to prioritize meeting with local believers at least once a month. These gatherings don't need to be complicated. They can take place in someone's home, at a coffee shop, or anywhere you can connect, open the Word, and fellowship together. To support this effort, I will host discipleship training on Friday for those interested in leading these groups. My goal is to provide leaders with the tools they need, including content and practical guidance, to facilitate meaningful discussions. I am passionate about this initiative because I believe close fellowship is vital for spiritual growth. Ministry is more than attending services—it's about fostering real, personal connections in your local community. While CFE is a global ministry with many digital offerings, God has placed it on my heart to emphasize that we are not just a digital ministry. We are a ministry with both digital and physical components, and one key physical component is gathering monthly for discipleship meetings.

Grace, faith, and living holy

Daily Study: Various bible teachers and pastors preach on the topics of grace, faith, and living holy. Most times you hear these topics in isolation, and depending on who you listen to, it can appear these topics contradict each other.

The Bible teaches principles not blueprints

Daily Study: There is a misconception among some believers about the purpose of the Bible. They study it in hopes of finding God's specific plan for their lives but become disappointed when they can't find it. The reason is that God designed the Bible to teach us spiritual principles, not to provide an exact blueprint for our lives and calling. However, if we learn the principles, then, with help from the Holy Spirit, we can discover our own blueprint.

We have to graduate from needing other Christians to agree with us

Daily Study: Since the early days of Christianity, believers have had disagreements over the meaning of various spiritual principles in the Word of God. Many of these early disagreements are actually documented in the New Testament. What is amazing about these disagreements is that God did not step in to correct everyone. Instead, He left it up to us to correctly discover spiritual truth from His Word. Therefore, when you listen to other believers and ministers interpret the Word of God, you are bound to hear contradictions and disagreements. When this happens, we must resist the urge to engage in fruitless arguments. In a real sense, to grow spiritually, we must graduate from needing other Christians to agree with us.
