A “Rainy-Day Fund” Can Help Keep You Afloat

It’s common for people in business to spend everything they make and not save for future investments or emergencies. For the most part, as a society we have become comfortable. There will be more, right?

We have forgotten how important it is to save money.

42% of Americans in 2022 had less than $1,000 in savings, and 10% didn’t have any. Businesses aren’t doing any better, and saving is every bit as important.

There’s a big difference between building a house and building a home.

A house is a structure. A home is a feeling— a place of warmth, safety, and belonging.

That same idea carries over into business and life. BUILDing something meaningful starts with clarity, intention, and a willingness to take action. I share what it means to BUILD in seven key areas of life: spiritual, family, vocation, financial, personal well-being, ministry, and community, and how a builder’s mindset can help shape more than just walls and roofs.

Because at the end of the day, BUILDing is about more than construction. It’s about creating the life and business you’re called to build.

It Starts with Not Giving Up
