“You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world.” — Matthew 5:13–14 Many Christians think impact only happens on a mission trip overseas. But the truth is, the marketplace is the mission field. It’s where we spend the majority of our time. It’s where we interact with people every day. It’s where God has positioned us to be salt and light. Tonight on our Faith & Marketplace Collective call, we’re diving into a simple but powerful question: How do you intentionally CREATE impact in the lives of people around you every single day? If you want your faith to show up not just on Sunday—but Monday through Friday in the marketplace—this conversation is for you. See you tonight. 🔥

1 Peter 5:8 NKJV

Mental stamina and willpower ARE an exhaustible resource. When you spend yours on the uncontrollables, you end up without enough left in the tank to take care of what YOU CAN CONTROL - sacrificing your progress, your growth, and the impact you can make each day. Remember the only kind of control God calls you to have is SELF CONTROL.

F&M — I shared th below post on LinkedIn immediately following the Super Bowl and it received over 50,000 views. A lot of folks had never heard of AQ. — We often celebrate IQ—raw intellect—and EQ—emotional intelligence—but let’s talk about AQ: Adaptability Quotient. Look at Sam Darnold’s path. Drafted by the New York Jets—an organization mired in dysfunction—he faced early turbulence. Then onto Carolina—another franchise struggling for long-term success. Many would have faltered. But Sam adapted, learning at each turn. He found his footing in San Francisco, thriving under a well-run organization, then took his growth to Minnesota under a renowned quarterback-whisperer coach. But it didn’t stop there. This offseason, Darnold signed to Seattle. Many doubted he’d rise to the occasion. Yet tonight, he didn’t just play for a Super Bowl—he became a Super Bowl–winning quarterback. Sam’s story is about AQ—adapting, evolving, and thriving when others would quit. So, as you grow your IQ and EQ, ask yourself: Are you building AQ? Because the storm will come—but those who adapt will grow through it and become champions.
