Business Over People
Steven Manuel offers a counter-intuitive perspective on the decision to prefer the livelihood of a business over the comfort or support of an individual. Referencing his days as a hair salon owner, he offers a short lesson in how a business, much like a ministry, is a platform for good works and Kingdom expression.

BlogPod: Build Wealth Like an Ant, Part 4
In part 4 we sing the praises of good ol’ boring stocks and bonds. No matter how you plan to build and steward the resources that you’ve been entrusted with, we think that this investment class is worth a good look. There are not many other assets that require so little of your direct efforts in order to grow, and stocks and bonds can provide a fantastic foundation for other wealth-building efforts you might undertake later in life.
