If you say Jesus is at the center of your business… but the Word of God isn’t shaping your daily decisions, something is off.

In this episode, Andy Mason breaks down how to actually read the Bible as a business leader—not just for information, but for real-life transformation.

From early experiences with scripture to developing a daily rhythm that informs decisions, leadership, and identity, this episode is both practical and deeply personal.

You’ll learn:

• Why most leaders struggle with consistency in the Word
• How to move from reading the Bible to encountering God
• The role of community and mentors in spiritual growth
• Why slowing down is the key to deeper revelation
• A simple rhythm you can start today

If you’ve ever felt disconnected, inconsistent, or unsure how to engage the Bible in your work life, this is for you.

What if you could build a successful business, and still miss your purpose?

In this episode, Andy Mason sits down with Coach Bill, a high-performance entrepreneur who spent over 40 years in business, raised a thriving family, and exited a multimillion-dollar company. But his greatest success wasn’t financial. It was learning how to hear God and build his life from that place.
