Redeeming Business Today

Ever wonder what a business would look like if Jesus were the owner? What would they focus on? Would the employees grumble about working conditions or pay? What would the culture be like? Well, at Redeeming Business Today we are demystifying that question as we collaborate with likeminded business leaders who view life from a Christian worldview. We delve into how God would do business, which translates into how we should be running our business. As a former pastor, engineer, business coach, and father of nine children David Schmidt analyzes business to find the root causes of success and simplifies it so anyone can understand and apply those principles. The Redeeming Business Today is designed to inspire, equip, and motivate business professionals to take God at his word and to trust him, commit their plans to him, and to delight in his ways. Business success is a combination of hard work and the blessing of God. It is not one or the other, it's both.Copyright 2026 David Schmidt Christianity Economics Leadership Management & Leadership Ministry & Evangelism Self-Help Spirituality Success

    95. Stop Floating: How to Discover and Walk Out Your God-Given Purpose with Alesha Limbo
    May 25 2026

    Do you ever feel like you're busy with all the right things — but somehow still off course?

    Like you're moving fast, but not necessarily toward anything that truly matters? You might be floating.

    Alesha Limbo knows that feeling well. A life coach, speaker, and podcast host, Alesha once described herself as a "recovering floater" — someone who stayed busy but hadn't yet locked into the specific purpose God had wired her for.

    Her journey from distraction to intentional, purpose-driven living has shaped everything from her coaching practice to her marriage to a bold land development leap in South Dakota.

    Redeem Your Business Today by the Following:

    How can we honor God in our business?

    Run every decision through this question: Does this align with the purpose and gifts God has specifically given me?

    Alesha challenges us to stop doing things we're merely okay at and start leaning into what God uniquely built us for — because that's where He shows up and multiplies the work.

    One challenge from today: Identify one thing you're currently doing out of busyness or fear rather than purpose — and take one step this week to either realign it or release it.

    93. How to Use AI Without Losing Your Voice: Integrity, Influence, and Authority with Ken Freire
    May 11 2026
    Are you using AI in your business — or is AI using you? In a world flooded with generated content and polished personas, your real voice might be your greatest competitive advantage.The question isn't whether to use AI. It's whether you're still showing up as you.Ken Freire is a business coach, podcast growth strategist, and author of Own the Show. He started in ministry leadership nearly 20 years ago, discovered a gift for scaling organizations without burning people out.He eventually launched a coaching and marketing agency helping expert-led business owners — coaches, consultants, and service providers — grow with authenticity and integrity.Join us as Ken unpacks what "authentic authority" really means, why transparency in sales actually closes more deals, and how Christians should be running toward AI — not away from it.Redeem Your Business Today by the Following:How can we honor God in our business? Ken reminds us of Colossians 3:23 — whatever you do, do it with all your heart. People don't just want your expertise; they want to trust a real human being.Build your "human edge": wisdom, discernment, personality, and values — the four things AI simply cannot replicateAudit your sales process for manipulation: false scarcity, hidden pricing, and emotional pressure tactics have no place in a business that honors GodUse AI as a tool to speed you up, not replace who you areOne challenge from today: This week, post something personal — a story, a moment with your family, a lesson you're still learning. Let people see the real you, not the polished version.More About Ken FreireWebsite: https://micclub.co/Book: Own The Show: Become an Authentic Authority in the Age of AI https://ownthe.show/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kenfreire/More About David SchmidtFree Resource: What God Says About Business: 5 Uncommon Truths for the Modern BusinessSubscribe to the RBT Weekly Newsletter for weekly simple, practical, and Biblical steps to help you build a thriving business in a way that honors God.Newsletter also comes with Bible verses for business success for you to read, apply, and be inspired by.Book a call: Get Unstuck and Move ForwardWebsite: redeemingbusinesstoday.comLinkedInDonate to the ShowMentioned in this episode:Leadership GPS: Christian Business CoachingAre you looking to integrate your faith and business but don't know where to start, book a time to discover if Christian business coaching and training might be right for you.
