    Paul Schultheis: Giving to God’s Passion
    Mar 31 2026

    Have you ever considered how you can give to God’s passion?

    In this episode, Jeff and Paul discuss:

    • The power of building and maintaining relationships.
    • Spreading the gospel and accepting the great commission.
    • Viewing your business as a mission field.
    • Laying aside your bias to listen and give better.

    Key Takeaways:

    • When sharing the gospel, you need to understand your audience - it isn’t about you.
    • God is raising up people in every country. By working together, the Kindom will grow that much faster and stronger.
    • Prayer is as much listening as it is speaking. Start your giving by listening to Him with intention.
    • You don’t have to be passionate about one cause or another before you start giving. Let God lead, and your heart will follow where He leads.

    "When you give to something, your passion will follow." — Paul Schultheis

  • Mordechai Wiseman: Living an Integrated Life

    Mordechai Wiseman: Living an Integrated Life
    Mar 24 2026

    What steps can you take to better integrate all areas of your life?

    In this episode, Jeff and Mordechai discuss:

    • How his Jewish grandparents came to follow Yeshua and how that affected his life.
    • Making the sacrifices to follow where God is calling you.
    • Integrating theology, life, and business.
    • Unique challenges and truths of redemptive business in Israel.
    • Being a successful business leader while avoiding the fate of the Rich Young Ruler.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Trust in the Lord - He will take care of you, even if not the way that you expect.
    • Business can be an effective tool to change the kingdom if you allow it to be and allow God to lead.
    • Every human, all the time, is worshipping. The question is, who (or what) are you worshipping and what are you looking to receive on the other side?
    • See your business as your calling. They can be the same, and are not separated.
    • The love of money is the great snare of the human heart. As such, the successful believer can be one of the most dangerous places to be if you do not plant the foundations with God and not with your own success.

    "This idea that we have this bifurcated worldview, where we serve God and then we make a living, is completely un-Biblical." — Mordechai Wiseman

    About Mordechai Wiseman: Mordechai is a third-generation Jewish follower of Yeshua (Jesus). He is the International Director of Israel Firstfruits, Managing Director of Firstfruits Funds, and Founder of the Messianic Business Fellowship.

    The Firstfruits team serves the faith-driven marketplace community in Israel, composed of Jewish and Arab followers of Yeshua. We are united in our purpose to empower marketplace leaders and grow businesses in Israel to advance the Kingdom of God. Our goal is to help start and grow thousands of redemptive businesses that will employ 100,000 Israelis and positively impact 10% of Israeli society through good jobs, quality service, and a winsome witness.

    With nearly 30 years of international management, marketing, and technology development experience in various industries, Mordechai has served companies and non-profit organizations ranging in size from small start-ups to Fortune 500 multinationals. He obtained a B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Cornell University and is also a veteran of the Israeli Defence Forces.

    Mordechai and his wife Meira have three children (one in heaven) and live in northern Israel near the Sea of Galilee.

  • Coralyn Musser and John Romnes: Passionately Caring for People

    Coralyn Musser and John Romnes: Passionately Caring for People
    Mar 17 2026
    Do you want to increase your investment in people and in eternity? In this episode, Jeff, Coralyn, and John discuss: Allowing God to guide your niche and your business. Trusting God through the ups and downs of business as you live by His principles.Why you should take mission trips as a business. Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do. Key Takeaways: The struggle can happen at any time, not only during startup. If you treat people well, using Biblical principles, even in a capitalistic society, it is good for your business. Be honest, treat people well, and trust in God. Give generously and live with compassion without an agenda behind it. Look for ways to have a ripple effect. Start small with 1 person, 1%, or 1 cause and grow as you can. Don’t be afraid to take a righteous risk with faith and just start. "Compassion and generosity have to become a part of your character. It can’t just be a tool in your toolbox." — John Romnes About Coralyn Musser: Coralyn Musser is the Director of Outreach & Engagement at MEI Total Elevator Solutions, where she leads company-wide culture, philanthropy, and employee engagement efforts. In this role, she designs and executes volunteer programs, community partnerships, and employee education initiatives that embed compassion and generosity into the day-to-day rhythm of the business. Through our signature Learn. Give. Do. framework, Coralyn helps translate values into action—educating teams around meaningful causes, empowering generosity, and activating hands-on service. Her leadership at MEI has driven measurable growth in employee participation, nonprofit impact, and cultural alignment across the organization. She also holds an MBA, sits on the board of MY Place (an area youth organization), is a TEDx Speaker, and is a podcast host. About John Romnes: In 1969, John W. Romnes stood to his feet at a Billy Graham Crusade to give his life to the Lord. The founder of Minnesota Elevator, Inc. (MEI), John, began the venture hoping to raise his family “in the country” and earn a living in the trade he had learned. From those small beginnings, MEI grew to some 300 employees who engineer, manufacture, install, and service passenger and freight elevators. Additionally, the company is involved in many charitable outreach efforts, employing a full-time “Director of Outreach and Engagement.” Blessed with God’s favor, MEI is thriving today with a strong leadership team that includes John’s sons, Ron and Steve, who also work for the company. John and his wife, Roxie, continue to enjoy an extensive international travel itinerary, mostly related to Christian mission work. They have nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
