McCoy’s Building Supply has learned the importance of listening to learn. We’ll watch how they humble themselves to the very real possibility that we have just as much to learn from someone else as they do from us. Discuss these 3 questions:

  1. How can you begin to allow others to see you for who you really are? What are some ways that you can be more transparent/vulnerable with the people who you interact with on a daily basis?

  2. What does it take for you to really get to know your customers and employees? And in turn, for them to know the real you? How interact with others beyond just a transactional relationship?

  3. How can we share/show Christ to others and have kingdom impact, not just financial success, through seeing people first?

 

This guide is intended for personal reflection and to help facilitate a meaningful group discussion. Take a moment to watch the video and read over the guide before your group meeting. Be prepared with some personal examples to help encourage discussion. If helpful, before you meet, print out or email a copy of this guide to all those who will attend the meeting.

 
 
 

5 Ideas to Explore the Mark Further

 

There’s no limit to the ways you can explore the Marks of a Faith Driven Entrepreneur. What we provide below are five ideas we think might lead each one of us to an even greater understanding of our God-given call to create.

  1. Journal: Write down a few ways you could lead with love. What are some ways you can ensure that the people around you feel loved through your work and decisions?

  2. Interact: This month, take the time to interact with a few employees, business partners, or customers that you normally wouldn’t engage with. Try to get to know them better, understand who they are as people, and what is important to them. Show genuine interest knowing that each person has a story. Endeavor to know their story and, when asked, to share yours.

  3. Consider: Take some time this week to share a few failures with other entrepreneurs and business owners you know. Consider incorporating this kind of conversation into your normal routine.

  4. Act Differently: Try your best to work from a place of acceptance this month. Consider your motivations when making decisions and try to let love for others be part of your priorities.

  5. Learn From Others: Visit faithdrivenentrepreneur.org to learn more or join the conversation by listening to our weekly Faith Driven Entrepreneur Podcast.

 
 
 
 

Entrepreneurs can travel a lonely road. But you’re not alone. You’re sitting next to a group of like-minded business owners right now. One of the best ways to grow the Faith Driven Movement is to multiply your group.
