Christians in Network Marketing: As Jesus followers, Should We be Poor?

Treadmill Tracks for Christian Business Owners.

Christian entrepreneurs sometimes have a love/hate relationship with PROFIT! Jesus came into a poor family, never owned any property, and was buried in a borrowed tomb. Does that mean that Christians should be poor too? Many assume that following Jesus means being poor. Do you agree with that? Many Christians select the NON-PROFIT business model more often than our non-Christian peers. There seems to be some stigma with profit that if they earn it they feel compelled to give it away and remain personally poor. This conversation will be a SERIES! So we will stick to this portion of the conversation in this show. The other scheduled topics coming up in this series are: The Bible says we cannot serve God and Money. If we pursue prosperity, does this mean we serve money? Running a business has challenges and learning curves, and many of it is difficult and sometimes does not work out as planned. Does your faith help you in times like these? How? Direct Sales & MLMs often get lumped with the illegal concept of Ponzi or Pyramid schemes. To make it worse, even good companies have rogue Representatives that do unethical things. How can we as Christians help to lift the Network Marketing Profession through our work? We are Christians first before we are entrepreneurs. In our companies, and on our teams there is quite a bit of entrepreneurial training to help us grow our business. Do you feel there is enough faith-based leadership support for us to grow as champions and examples of what an "abundant life" looks like?
