What God Says About Business: Lessons from God's Laws for Kings

In this episode, David Schmidt explores Deuteronomy 17:14–20 and shares how God’s instructions for kings offer valuable instruction for business leaders today.

There are three things kings were not to do and the one they were supposed to do: Write themselves a copy of the law and read it every day.

Kings operated a lot like business owners today and these laws are principles that you can very much apply to your business today.

David discusses how these biblical principles will ground leaders in humility, guard against pride, and keep leaders focused on God in every decision.

The results of following God's laws: Success and longevity of your business.

One Challenge from Today:

This week, commit to reading a portion of Scripture every morning before work. As you read, think about it and ask God for wisdom for leading and the operations of your business.

As Christians, our faith should shape every aspect of our work, including the culture of our business. But what happens when it doesn’t?

What does it look like to move from working for profit to working to honor God first?

In this episode, I talk with Tammy Noble, an entrepreneur who has experienced both cultures: Running it her own way and running it God’s way.

Tammy’s story is one of redemption and restoration, from burnout and broken relationships to a thriving business and restored family relationships all starting from submitting to doing things God’s way.

We discuss what it means to build a business that honors God: Where serving clients and employees comes before profit, integrity guides decisions, and success is measured by meeting the needs of clients.

Tammy shares:

• How making work your mission verses solely a means to make money has changed her business and family life forever
• Why integrity, honesty, and love are foundational to a great business culture
• How surrendering to God is the way to go, He is so much wiser than we are
• Practical ways to serve customers, employees, and community in a way that honors God

Growth in business often starts with growth in the heart.

What happens when success fades, and God calls you to rebuild from the inside out?

Today I’m joined by James Barthel, author of Thou Shalt Grow and a business leader who learned that true growth begins with spiritual alignment.

James shares how losing everything helped him see business from God’s perspective and how aligning faith, leadership, and preparation opens the door to lasting success.

We talk about:

• Why growth starts with spiritual maturity
• How alignment brings clarity to leadership
• What it means to build a faith-driven culture
• The power of surrender in business decisions
• How God prepares us for the growth we pray for
